Review: Living The Law of Attraction

Title: Living the Law of Attraction: Real Stories of People Manifesting Health, Wealth, and Happiness
Author: Rich German and Robin Hoch
Publisher: iUniverse (2008)
Pages: 248
Genre: Non-fiction, Inspirational
Book Source: I received a free copy from the author for this review.

Living the Law of Attraction is a collection of short true life inspirational stories. The theme that ties them all together is the concept that good thoughts attract good things into your life. This concept, called The Law of Attraction, is briefly outlined in the introduction and then the rest of the book is devoted to proving it through testimonials from people who have successfully applied the idea to their lives. The stories are collected into sections based on themes such as: Health, Weight loss, Business, Happiness, Relationships and Everyday Miracles. In some cases the short story was written by someone who is in business or who has written their own book. At the end of each story there is an email or website address that can be used to contact the author. Each contributor has written around three or four pages, so there are a lot of stories in total!

This is a great book to give you a boost emotionally and to remind you to live your life deliberately and positively. I like that fact that the stories are so short because it makes it easy to just catch one every now and again before bed or when you need a lift. It had been a while since I read anything inspirational, so it was refreshing to hear about other people's successes. There is great variety in the collection, making it easy to find something relevant to your own life issues. Living the Law of Attraction reminded me to be more positive toward my life and to take better care of myself and my thought processes.

  1. A good review Jemima.
    I think that we could all do with a reminder to take better care of ourselves and our thought processes.

  2. Happy New Year, New England Bloggers!

    Our 1-year anniversary is coming up Jan 27. To mark the occasion I am going to put up a Mr. Linky on the evening of Mon, Jan 25. If you'd like to write a post about living in NE, your favorite places to visit, NE authors or books, whatever interests you. I'd also like a little idea of # of participants, if you could just send me a reply.
    I apologize if you are getting this twice. Many people haven't given me emails so I have to leave it in the comments.

  3. Gail, I am glad that you liked the review. I think that the authors are planning to put together another book of stories in the future.

    Elizabeth, I will respond to you via email. I would love to be involved in the event.
