 Wait for the paperback December 12, 2007
20 out of 22 found this review helpful
I have always enjoyed reading Shirley's books. However, this particular book was filled a bit too much with her movie history and her relationship with other actors. I also found that much of the information in this book can also be found in other books she has written. I generally purchase her books in paperback. I bought this one as soon as it came out thinking that it would have more true "sage" advise and or information.... I must admit that I was rather disappointed. All in all it is an easy read and if you have enjoyed her past books and are familiar with her style, you will probably like this one. I still feel that it would be prudent to wait for the paperback. She was truly the first "famous" person to not hide in the shadows in regard to this subject and was forthright in speaking out and writing about this subject. For that I have always been a "fan" and faithful "supporter" and always will be. Thank you Shirley but you've written better.
 Maclaine's best yet December 11, 2007

My guess is the review by Erika probably was written without finishing the book. After about 20 pages, it takes off. The essence of this book is Maclaine's honesty coupled with an intimate flavor that drew me in and kept me reading. The ufology was awesome, whetting my appetite to know all there is. If Erika doesn't have prior exposure to or knowlege of UFOs and spirituality in general, then she should probably resort to simpler fare. I would place this second only to Gary Renard's writings in satisfying my undying curiosity, although of course the latter author did not touch on UFOs other than to reveal from the masters that they have been on earth many times.
I'll be looking for another book on this subject, hopefully by MacLaine. It was more personal and up close than any other UFO "reports" that I've read, because it was not a report format; it was testimony prose written tightly but with meaning, not narration.
Good luck Erika, and may God be watching over and guiding you. Perhaps one day you will see a UFO if you're deserving.
 Consider Reading the Original Age-ing to Sage-ing December 7, 2007

I enjoyed reading MacLaine's work in the early 1980's while I was trying to get my dissertation written...she opened me up to a whole other world of individuals, who as she put it in an interview, she knew could 'make money from spirituality.' I encourage anyone interested in reading about the depths of what it is to be an elder, and the beauty of growing into the role to explore the book written in 1996 by Zalman Schachter Shalomi, "From Age-ing to Sage-ing: A Profound NEw Vision of Growing Older." Sound familiar?
AN INSPIRATION! December 13, 2007
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Having been a fan of all of Shirley's books since reading GOING WITHIN, I have never been disappointed, and this book is no exception! Any spiritual seeker will appreciate the wisdom contained on every page. For those who have been on the spiritual path as long as I have, this book will serve as confirmation that we are not alone in our experiences nor in our desire to contribute positively to this world in every healing way possible - physically, spiritually, emotionally, intellectually and financially! Thank you, Shirley! Please keep writing, and I will keep reading!
She's done it again! December 24, 2007
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Shirley continues to amaze me. This time she boldly tells of her interest, knowledge and research into the realm of UFO's. I was totally shocked when she revealed that in 1954 Eisenhower signed a treaty with the grey aliens. The government not only knew of alien abductions but sanctioned them in exchange for information about advanced weaponry. It literally blew me away. I am old enough to remember Roswell, the cover-ups and nuclear bombs. She reveals the names of government officials who have known all along that this was going on. Shirley explains why UFO's had to intervene into our world. She really outdid herself again. This is definitely an important book and a must-read for spiritual seekers. This lady really has guts!
