My Holiday Swap Package!!


I got my Holiday Swap package this week from
Serena at Savvy Verse & Wit!
Early Christmas ~ Yes I opened it!




Lots of Goodies and two books!
I never heard of either book but reading the blurbs they both sound extremely interesting!
Nice shower gels and splash - I will smell really good!
Three very cool and pretty elastic book marks! They slip over the cover and then mark two - four places with ribbons!
These will come in handy so I can mark a page for notes on a review and (don't throw anything at me) not bend the corner of the page ever so slightly 'till I can make note of the thought I had on that page!

The chocolates didn't last past lunchtime!!
I'll remember Mrs. Field's brand as they were yummy!

Thank you so much Serena!
Good Job especially since I didn't have a wish list posted when I signed up!!

Review:  Anyone who has ever thought about guardian angels or any good angels would love this book!

The book is filled with pictures like the cover – absolutely beautiful images and brushes of angels!!  The author gives a very gentle story of her loss of a loved one and then her journey to healing and peace through the vision of angels captured in her photography in her everyday surroundings!

Near the beginning of the book Ms. Scalora mentions an ancient tome on angels that she is given by a being of light at the city library.  My first impulse was to go online to look up that book. But I didn’t want to interrupt the lovely flow of the text.  As I continued to read and experience the warmth and peace of this remarkable book, it no longer mattered whether I looked up the ancient volume!

Angel of Harmony

Experiencing Angels displays Angels of grief and of comfort; of seasons and colors; of courage, healing, peace, love and more.  It is written with a flow that moves with the beautiful representations of the various angels who are depicted as offering insight and strength for our inner needs. The author includes letters written to her of others who saw angels or who were seeking help to see angels for comfort or healing!

Although this may have a listing as a Children’s book – it is not.  Children may well love the bright vibrant, or soft and soothing but still colorful, illustrations, as my two year old granddaughter did. However, the message of miracles and an everyday presence that keeps us from being alone are to be experienced by adults.  This book is a treasure as a gift for someone who needs hope and peace or a book to keep handy in your own home to provide you with a sense of angelic protection and calm.  I truly feel a warm peace each time I pick up the book and look at the beauty of it!

You can see pages from the book at this link.
Ms. Scalora has generously offered to giveaway one of these beautiful books!
