I really liked this book and the messages in it. There isn't any book out there that you will agree with everything in it -- and this one is no different. Will it work for all? No. It won't work for those who have a negative or destructive way about them. They're not ready to hear these kinds of messages yet. "When the student is ready, the teacher will come." It does however give a boost to those already trying and focusing on living a positive & spiritual lifestyle. Is it new news? No. Many spiritual teachers have spoken about this "law of attraction", Dr. Wayne Dyer being one of them. The secret of "The Secret" is that it's presented in a fresh way and in little bites. You don't have to take it all in -- but it will make you think. And that's always a good thing.
