5.0 out of 5 stars my guide, myself: the psychic oddyssey of sylvia brown, June 14, 2000

This review is from: My Guide Myself (Hardcover)

I actually purchased this book at an evening with Sylvia Browne event and had it autographed! This book is a wonderful introduction to who, what and why Sylvia Browne is! Many passages from Sylvia's spirit guide, Francine, are included and have been a source of comfort for someone like myself that wasn't sure what to think about that "heaven and hell" stuff I kept hearing about growing up in a Lutheran household. After reading this book, I felt I actually "knew" Sylvia. The book strongly points out that being psychic isn't all glamour and personal appearances and TV shows. I personally know a few psychics that feel Sylvia has gone too commercial. This book goes into detail how Sylvia has become so popular world wide and that it's a good thing to share what Francine is trying to share with all of us from the other side.

I highly recommend this book for anyone wishing to explore the world of psychics and for anyone wanting information about the other side. It's a feel good book.

4.0 out of 5 stars INTRIGUING...PROVOCATIVE...ENTERTAINING..., June 5, 2004

Having seen Sylvia Browne on the Montel Williams show, I was certainly captivated by her psychic ability, as she seemed to be so on the money with her revelations about some of Montel's guests. I purchased this book in hope of finding out more about this intriguing woman, who certainly seemed to be blessed with a remarkable psychic gift.

This book, which was later retitled and released as "Adventures of a Psychic: The Fascinating, Inspiring, True Life Story of One of America's Most Successful Clairvoyants", is informative and highly entertaining, as Sylvia Browne relates her life story, and the reader discovers how she evolved to be the person she is today. She tells the reader of her dysfunctional family and suggests that her gift is a hereditary one. She describes her psychic gift in detail and informs the reader of the use to which she has put her ability. Her journey in life has, thus far, been a fascinating and unusual one.

She also gives the reader her vision of what lies ahead for each and every one of us, after we have moved on from this earthly plane. While one cannot be sure whether she is right or wrong, it still makes for some thought provoking and interesting reading. She believes death to be one's reward for living. This is certainly philosophically in keeping with her vision of what lies ahead for each of us, after death.

The book, written in a warm, breezy, conversational tone, is very reflective of Sylvia's actual cadence and personality. Whether or not one is a believer is irrelevant to the enjoyment that one will derive from reading this book. Keep an open mind!

5.0 out of 5 stars I have read almost all of Sylvia Brownes books!!!!, February 22, 2002

That is right, I almost read all of sylvia brownes books. I think she has wisdom and comfort about the other side.I strongly agree that we do go "home", when we determine when our time here is up. I first started reading her books after my grandmother died in sept 19,99. I needed comfort and I found it. I would recommened these books to anyone who lost their loved ones. That is my opinion anyway.
