Ask and It Is Given: Learning to Manifest Your Desires

"I looked at this book because I heard a lot about it and wanted to see for myself what all the fuss was all about. My first clue that this book was a horse of a different color was when I found it in the "metaphysical" section of the bookstore.

I have to be honest though, I never made it through the whole book. It centers around this "spirit" called Abraham and all the advice and teaching it gave to the authors.

Definitely for the "New Age" crowd, if this kind of thing interests you, then for the type of book that it is, its a good one. The book has 22 sections, whose purpose is to help you achieve your goals in life by asking you some reflective types of questions- which I did find motivating. Although not my cup of tea, the book is quite popular and I can recommend it to anyone looking for something different and inspiring. For readers who like more conventional books in the self-help genre, I recommend The Sixty-Second Motivator.

"I bought this book about 2 years ago. It has helped me on many occasions when my spirits have been low and lifted them. Taught me there is hope and it can be of your own making.
I have also found it of use when explaining things to my teenage daughters.
I highly recommend it. It's very American, but if we Brits can get over that it makes interesting reading."

"I find it hard to comprehend that this book is a heavy read as I find the words just flow off the page, page after page of wisdom coupled with quite a few eureka moments, the basis of the book is, NOTHING is more important than feeling good in the present moment.
I love this book and of all the spiritual books I have read this one has had a lasting effect on me.
Read it, reread it, open it at any page and just let the truth about personal reality flow!
AN ESSENTIAL READ"

"Some complainants have said that this book failed to deliver, yet they do not condemn their god because of all the unanswered prayers in the world. Do people stop going to church because of unanswered prayers? Of course not! In fact, they say it is "God's will". In this case when things fail to happen, and just because you have read the book then it is just the same. You have to actually start and have some input into your life, reading the book alone will not suffice! Just by uplifting your feelings and thinking more positively will make things happen, as opposed to just sitting there waiting for it to happen! Anyone with an iota of positivity will make things happen in their life, and this book has to be applauded for giving you the tools to change your life for the better. Don't sit there and expect to moan that it didn't work, as then it is your fault, not the fault of the book!!!!!!!!!!!"

"If you are open-minded and prepared to understand and take on board what is being said in this book, your life really can not be the same again. I have read other books that have had a profound and lasting effect, such as The Celestine Prophecy, Conversation with God books, The Secret, Think and Grow Rich to mention but a few. The book is easy to read and for me is THE book on the Law of Atraction, and there are a lot of fantastic books to read in this field!"
