I didn't (or had already read) the other books in the offer except Kiss of Life.

Read yourself and make your own judgement - you obviously thought it sounded good :) Sounds interesting enough for me to go find out a bit more about it too :)<br /><br />Thanks for your comments about the spirit guides I think I definitely have to read that book. And about Etsy... Hummmm, it's a confidence thing.
