After years of writing nonfiction about handwriting psychology and mystery fiction, I tackled a memoir. This book details my spiritual path, starting with a strict religious background that allowed for no belief in an afterlife, to the freedom of understanding that there is no death, only life after Earth.

Yes, it is - eye- opening and mind bending. There’s something so soul altering about losing child, especially to suicide or murder. The healing journey to move past the pain to survival and then life again is different for each person or parent. Then a different path opens to this author. Read or listen and suspend disbelief. Consider the possibilities. Recommended.

Eye opening and mind bending.

I was moved and fascinated by this story which relayed the author's memoir. I admired the author's courage in relating surprising incidents that have been the catalysts toward changing from a person guided by strict religious beliefs to one who believes in life after death. I thought Anna Crowe's narration was fine, and her performance was easy to follow as she read this memoir. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which included my honest opinions regarding this story.

This book has life changing observations to share, regardless of whether you believe in the afterlife or not. In fact, this book has more to do with what we learn during our life’s journey than what happens after. It is the opposite of dogmatic, and instead invites us in to ponder the twists and turns of human existence, and how to find comfort and peace with your own story. What a gift that the author, Sheila Lowe, has gifted us with sharing how she rose from unimaginable generational trauma and the loss of a child to forging a life that radiates peace and hope.

A unique memoir unlike any other

An autobiography starting with the brutal murder of the author's daughter that quickly unravels into her complete life story, from a very young age to the present time, sharing struggles with life, finding her strengths and voice, Jehovah's witnesses' background and details from such environment that some (including me) may not be familiar with, going deep into what influenced her over time as well as how her perspective on life and death slowly changed and how her handwriting analysis provided insight into many events and personalities, albeit some retrospectively. She describes many encounters with good spirits as well as a few bad ones, over time giving into reading tarot and communicating with the dead using signs and mediums. The author shares a lot of strange, interesting and sad experiences, surely more than enough for one lifetime, making me actually very grateful for my boring and uneventful life. Worth a listen for sure. * The narrator speaks way too slow for my taste, I listened at 1.20x speed and could barely tell over the whole book, apart from only a few moments.
