[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "The Weird Little Girl Who Talked To Ghosts" by Chezzi Denyer.]
Do you believe in the afterlife? Are you interested in knowing about the life of a psychic medium? Would you like to read about spirits and their connection with us? Then, The Weird Little Girl Who Talked to Ghosts by Chezzi Denyer is an excellent choice.
I have always been interested in spirits and fascinated by the otherworld. So, when I saw this book, the title captured my attention right away. I have read many memoirs, but this one is unique, as it is about a psychic medium. The first chapter, "The Woman I Tried to Hide," hooked me immediately. In her book, the author shares how, as a little girl, she always thought that everyone could talk to spirits. I was intrigued by her childhood experiences in which she was trying to grapple with her gift of spiritual connection. When her powers were considered a flaw and questioned by others, she tried to be a normal little girl, ignoring the voices and shedding the spiritual skin. She stopped believing in God, and she wasn't sure if her magic was gone or if it was all just her imagination. Her confusion is portrayed clearly. It was only after the birth of her first daughter, Sailor—whom she calls her teacher—that she started to reconnect with the spiritual world. But her deep fears and confusion continue as her daughter appears to inherit her spiritual connection. Many incidents, such as her best friend Amy's death and her father's cancer, added to her grief and took a toll on her mental health, finally turning her back to spirituality. On an impulse, she applies to a medium school to explore her psychic abilities. Thus, her healing journey towards becoming a psychic medium starts.
I enjoyed many aspects of this book. Firstly, the writing style is easy to follow. The author has a knack for writing in an interesting manner. She kept me engaged, and I didn't feel bored at any point. Her emotions are effectively conveyed, and the scenes are well-described. Sailor's birth was particularly heartwarming to read about. Also, the story of Morgan Ogg and his connection with the author touched my heart. Some incidents, like the name selection of Sailor and mysterious happenings around Sailor's baby monitor, sounded impossible and left me astounded. Like the author, I, too, love Steve Irwin, and reading about him brought back nostalgic memories. The author's reading tests for the Mediumship Certificate course were also fascinating.
The author writes about how the spirit world connects to us through birds. As a Hindu, I strongly believe that souls connect to us through birds, especially crows. Various topics like reincarnation, ADHD, etc. are discussed in this book. The mention of Reiki healing resonated with me, as I have experience with it.
I appreciate that the author acknowledges her mentors who shaped her journey, anchored her when she was lost, reminded her to trust herself, and gave her their unwavering support on her spiritual path. Also, I adored that the author reminds every woman that quirkiness is not a flaw.
This memoir provides a detailed look into the psychic world of a medium. I recommend this book to readers who believe in the afterlife and wish to know more about the spiritual connections; non-believers might not be interested. Open-minded readers who are intrigued by this topic might also enjoy this read. This book shows how the author came out, embracing her gifts instead of hiding away. Through her life journey, she reminds us to follow our intuitions and be courageous about our quirkiness. Also, she wishes to show that the connection with the spirits is normal. The author is not just a medium but also a healer; many spirits reach out to her to send messages to their loved ones. This set of messages is one of the main sections of the book. Sensitive readers might be triggered by them, as the topic of death is repeatedly discussed.
While reading, I noted fewer than ten errors. As they were minor and didn't detract from my enjoyment, I didn't reduce stars for editing. I didn't have any other dislikes. Learning about the life of a psychic medium was a different experience, which I thoroughly enjoyed. So, I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
