Open your eyes.

Open your mind.

Open your heart.

They are with you every day.

They are everywhere.

They are angels.

Open and begin your journey. . . .

Three words; enchanting, stunning & vibrant.

First of all, I was completly stunned by the imagery in this book, it was beautiful. I was complety enchanted by the images of the angels. Lots of color and vibrancy! The images truly pop!

I was a little confused on the story....? Is this supposed to be fiction? Or is it supposed to make you believe in the possibility of angels? (Personally, I believe in the possibility of angels.) The story itself is very brief, the loss of a loved one causes the narrator to explore her world for angels and hear their messages of guidance. There are testimonials/letters from others that have had their own experience with angels, which I assume to be true encounters, but I'm unsure? Overall, I enjoyed the book and it's message of love and hope.

I'd like to see a copy of Scalora's faerie book. You can find about more about the book itself and see some of the images at www.myth.com

Kristi, I'm seeing the "Bandwidth Exceeded" message all over your blog today. However, I saw it on another blog as well, so it may be my computer.; November 17, 2009 10:30 AM

Sarah said...: This book just came in at my library and it was originally cataloged as a picture book. Well I had to set them straight about that. I loved the imagery too though, absolutely stunning. The story, well I guess with 57 pages one has to be sparse with words.; November 17, 2009 5:30 PM
TheEclecticElement said...: Wow, that book looks just stunning! I wouldn't mind just getting it for the pictures-Truly beautiful.

And I do too believe in the existence of angels and guardians :); November 17, 2009 8:32 PM

Liviania said...: I love Francesca Lia Block's writing - so lyrical. I'll have to keep an eye out for this one.; November 18, 2009 1:31 AM
Aimee said...: It's more focused on the pictures than the words - its not so much a story as a personal journey...

I did a review on it as well, if anyone's interested in having a look: http://myflutteringheart.blogspot.com/2009/11/book-review-evidence-of-angels-by-suza.html; December 7, 2009 4:53 AM
