Soul Licensed: Tips and Tales by David Tuttle is a very short read; you won’t need that much time because of it and also because the chapters are very short and don’t provide much content, which means you’re not really getting anything out of it.

I struggled to find the point of it all. To start, the book seriously lacks an introduction. We’re thrown right into the subject matter, and it can be confusing because why are you talking about Reiki and license plates? What was the actual reason you felt the need to put together this little pamphlet of a book with no meaningful content? Of course we have no answer to this.

Next, talking about the little content the book has, we get very short chapters where the author mentions the different methods of dealing with life they throw into the book (Reiki, meditation, astrology, etc.), but it mainly feels like they are name-dropping. They don’t develop any of them enough to consider they actually mean something to them or that they are a lifelong or regular practitioner of these methods. The only thing they mention a lot is license plates, which really baffled me. Sometimes we only see things because we’re trying too hard to see them, and the fact that you see license plates with the initials of people you have met and have died, or with numbers significant to you somehow, doesn’t mean anything. I’m not trying to be mean or anything, but coincidences are sometimes just coincidences, nothing more.

I’m giving the book 1 out of 5 stars. Although it’s well edited and with no errors that I could find, I really don’t see the point of the book. It’s not self-help, it’s not fiction, it’s not a memoir, it’s not philosophy, and it’s not really proposing anything. You could just go to Google to give you a list of relaxation or stress relief methods, and you’ll get what was in this book and better explained.

It sounds like the book lacked substance and clarity, which can definitely be frustrating. While I’m usually open to exploring perspectives on spirituality and self-care, it seems like this one didn’t offer much depth or meaningful insight. Without a clear purpose or thoughtful exploration of its topics, I don’t think it would resonate with me. I’d probably skip this one.
