This blog will hold all the book reviews, including those which were earlier posted at www.blether.com That site has been closed and so I am keeping all those reviews here so that a prospective author/publisher and a publicist can decide whether I am a suitable reviewer for the book they are trying to promote. My latest reviews are also being uploaded here.

How To Dance With Life

How To Dance With Life
by Sara DeGraff

Category: Non-fiction / Education
80 pages; ISBN: 0-9709917-9-7

Rating: 7/10

Review

"How To Dance With Life" by Sara DeGraff is a small book of 80 pages, containing short articles on various aspects of living.

A few topics: Learn From Your Mistakes, Listen to Your Intuitiveness, Practice Humility, Do Not Fight Other People's Battles etc. Most of them are one page or a part there of. A few are two page long.

In keeping with the title, many of the articles read like instructions and in a few cases like sermons. This may or may not appeal to all.

While the content of most of the articles is in line with good psychology, spirituality etc., the reader may or may not resonate with all the ideas presented. But it is worth getting a Spiritual Master's perception on several aspects of a life.

Sara comes across as a gifted and spirtual person, but some traces of negativity (probably caused by past negative experiences) still come through the articles at a few places. That does add a little more authenticity to the book.

The book has a few typos.

Overall rating is GOOD.
