Of course I will be here. Thank you for making this video. More people should know more about The Secret Magdalene. It’s in my top 3 books of all time. It feels like one of those creations that don’t feel like creations but rather facts of the world that you just need to experience. I was super religious before but super atheist and religion-critic now. I never thought I would fall in love with Yehoshua again haha! But this version of Yehoshua is the most real and compassionate version of Yehoshua. What I also love about this book is that not only Yehoshua and Magdalene are redeemed, but also Jude. I love the very few times that Jude speaks. And how he accepted his fate. I learned so much because of this book. I cried, I got goosebumps, I fell in love, I was entertained. Masterpiece. Now I’m rereading Hypatia. Then I will go to reading all her other works. Maybe I should read the mystery novels.

I was hoping you might... Myself, I've neither been very religious nor atheistic, but I've always been curious about the why of our existence. And the way our society has been influenced by religion. So, the historical background of things has been of interest to me. Next week I'll release my Hypatia-video, and I'll also do a video on Walks Away Woman and the Sam Russo Mysteries. Thanks for your inspired responses.

My sister sent me your link, and I'm so glad I clicked through. Ki was our mother, and she'd be honoured to know you'd taken the time to beautifully review her Secret Magdalene. Also, Houdini Heart is more of an autobiography for that time of her life, under the guise of horror. Chapter one over and over. Loved it. Recently reread SM, and fell in love all over again. One day, we'll have a movie!

Thank you Silky, it means a lot to hear from you! I should reread Houdini, because I'm afraid I just didn't get it the first time. I'll be posting new video's shortly about 1) Flow Down Like Silver, 2) Walks Away Woman and 3) Sam Russo (Four Forgotten Murder Mysteries). SM deserves a movie, and it has been too long in the making already.

I purchased this book, along with the Walsch set, after watching one of your very first bookshelf tour videos, one that I think you have replaced with a newer version. I got caught up in Walsch and forgot that I had the Longfellow. It sounds very much like the same concept as Walsch but disguised as a novel. It's interesting that her more recent works are murder mysteries! I enjoy your " from the vault" series! Thank you!!

Thank you in return. You're right, Secret Magdalene resides in the same realm of thinking as Walsch's Conversations with God. I'll be doing a From the Vault about her murder mysteries as well. Stay tuned, although I don't have to say to you...
