"Two delightful holiday stories from the New York Times bestselling author in one glorious e-book edition. A Season of Angels When three willing but wacky angels -- Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy -- are given a Christmas prayer to answer, there's just one catch: each angel must teach her charge a memorable lesson before the wish can be granted. Touched by Angels New York City is always in need of miracles, and this Christmas is no exception. Thank heavens the divinely inspired, if slightly dizzy trio -- Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy -- have winged in to answer three Christmas wishes and teach a few lessons along the way. As usual, they've come up with three deserving souls who are about to discover that with this crew, when you wish upon a star, you get a lot more than a pretty song."

5 out of 5 stars A New Favorite Author for Me.......2003-01-28

This is the first book I have read from this author, but will look for more of the same. It was a well written, sweet, funny look at something we all need to believe in. I had just lost my husband and was flying home (first time on a plane). Picked this up in the airport and was immediately immersed in the story, so forgot to be nervous about my flight. It was something I could connect to in my fragil state so thank you Debbie Mcomber for some light at the end of my particular tunnel.

5 out of 5 stars The Perfect Heartwarming Read........2002-12-16

I thought the book was great, I rated it a 4.5 out of 5. Although I didn't feel the characters were fleshed out enough, the stories of Christmas "miracles of love" were heartwarming. A perfect read for this time of the season. And again, although I love books with more meat in them, more story, ets., I felt this was a great book to read.

The first of the two stories, "A Season of Angels" did great in introducing our angels, Shirley, Goodness and Mercy as they helped their charges realize the answers to their prayers before Christmas. Of the three stories (charges), two were more predictible than the third, which was a pleasant surprise.

The angels were back again in "Touched by Angels," again helping three lucky charges. I liked this 'book' alot better than the first, as the stories were a tad more realistic.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone. And apparently there are more books featuring these three angels. Guess I have to go find "The Trouble With Angels" and "Shirley Goodness and Mercy."

Book Description

How do Angels influence our daily life? How do they intervene in our daily tasks - in our relationships, with our children, or our problems at work? Flower A. Newhouse is one of those very special people who has lived and worked with Angels for more than half a century and has written extensively about her experiences and her understanding. In this, her latest book, she presents a comprehensive perspective on the many ways Angels communicate and work with us. She also gives some simple techniques to help us initiate contact with Angels ourselves.

1 out of 5 stars Not delivered! so not read! Very disappointed in Amazon.......2006-07-03

I have been an Amazon customer since the beginning. I ordered this book in good faith that it would be delivered promptly as I had come to expect. To my dismay it didn't arrive. When I checked it was listed as "undeliverable" The address was correct so said Amazon and DHL and I live in a safe neighborhood. USPS and everybody else leaves things on the porch. None the less it was "returned" to Amazon and no one gave me an explanation or gave a hoot about the fact I didn't get my book. I was refunded my money and they shorted me by $3.00 so for $3 I got a big disappointment and no explanation.
Not a good deal. I am in the market for an on-line book seller who is on the ball and can get me what I ordred. I wonder if anyone from Amazon reads these reviews. I doubt it.

4 out of 5 stars Fascinating book that helps put angels in your everyday life.......1998-10-30

I was particularly intrigued to read the experiences and understanding that Flower Newhouse has in the world of angels. She presents a comprehensive perspective on the many ways that Angels communicate and work with us. Together with some simple techniques that help initiate the contact with Angels, the author brings these heavenly beings into our relationships and our daily lives.

5 out of 5 stars A Must Read For Anyone Interested In Angels.......1998-10-07

I just finished reading this book and I must say I enjoyed it tremendously. I am new to the study of Angels and this book is a great place to find a better understanding of how Angels can have an influence in your life.

    Book Description

    Eileen Freeman believes in angels.Not the stern, demigod figures we've sometimes painted them to be, but rather intelligent beings, different from humans, who are vastly more ancient and wise.They show themselves to us visibly; they talk to us; they teach us.They want us to know about them and their mission, which is to help us, as individuals and as a race, to grow in love and wisdom.They don't care whether we're Christian, Buddhist, Moslem, Hindu, Sikh, or anything else.All they need from us is a certain openness to their existence and an active willingness to be part of the encounter.They want us to survive.In Touched by Angels, Eileen Freeman details these encounters--that of the woman who thought God had abandoned her dying husband until she saw an angel, praying quietly by his bed; that of the young man who gave up drugs after an angel appeared to him at a family funeral and led him to the grave of a man with his same name; that of the young girl whose fear of death was forever dispelled when her guardian angel assured her that her grandmother wasn't cold and lonely in her grave, but warm and happy in heaven.Those who have experienced these mystical visitations--from Dag Hammerskjold and Cotton Mather, to ordinary adults and children--have each believed, with a strange clarity that precluded doubt, that what they were experiencing was true. As Freeman assures us, such close encounters are a gentle promise that our God is a loving God who cares intimately about each one of us, even giving us into the care of a guardian angel, who leads us toward love and away from fear and hate.

    5 out of 5 stars The most authentic book about the angels I've ever read.......1998-06-17

    Touched by Angels is one of those rare books that includes, rather than excludes readers. It isn't polemical or designed to criticize views of angels other than the author's. The author asks important questions like Why are we so interested in angels these days, and Why are the angels so interested in us? and she answers them very cogently. The stories of angelic intervention reflect the experiences of people of all religions and no religion, of white and black and hispanic, of men and women and kids, of people in danger or not. She writes in an easy conversational style that doesn't require a dictionary to understand! The book is great. I recommend it highly.

      Book Description

      A novel based on the popular television show, "Touched By an Angel." Foremost genetic researcher Dr. Kate Calder had only focused on one thing during her adult life: her research. It had always been her goal to make a discovery before her colleague, Dr. Beth Popik, in order to get all the credit. Kate was always in competition with Beth. So it seemed natural to make every attempt to outbid her at a charity bachelor auction. The prize: a dinner date with Andrew, the Angel of Death. There was something very different about Andrew and about the whole restaurant staff headed by Tess and Monica. As the evening unfolds, Kate is confronted with a message of truth that would turn the lives of three people.if she would receive it.

      I ran into someone that was looking for a good book to read I would give them this book,because it is a fun book.I think it is kind of like a mystery because at one part you don't know what is going to happen to the main people If in the story until you get to the end of the book. I also thought that it was kind of funny because at the part were Andrew comes into the room were he had plans to take Katie to dinner he started to go crazy! I think that MY DINNER WITH ANDREW is the best book that Ihave read in my life!

From the onset, this book grabs your attention and never let's it go. I am not a big reader, but I couldn't put this book down. An easy read that allows you to feel touched by all the Angels. For anyone who is a fan of the TV show....this is another enjoyable journey!

      5 out of 5 stars This book is amazing!.......1999-09-05

      I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was very much like the episode, but went into a little more depth, as far as character development. I recommend it to anyone out there who is interested in Touched by an Angel, and anyone who's not.

      5 out of 5 stars A Good Book!.......1999-06-27

      I just finished reading this book and am hoping to see the television episode again...soon. It's one of my favorites and I'm glad to have the book for anytime. It has the humor, innocence, and special message that the T.V. episodes have. I recommend this book, but regret that there aren't any special pictures of the characters in it! :)

      Goodness, Mercy and Shirley, 3 sometimes faulty guardian angels, are given three new charges in New York. A novice teacher in an inner city school, a Montana maiden who aspires to be a broadway singer, and a New York city girl-a sweetheart betrothed to a man she doesn't love but who her parents adore. Like many Macomber books this one deals with the loves of the everyday person and the hopes and heartaches they sometimes face. A sweet, romantic tale-a good lighthearted book to curl up with this holiday season:)-Merry Christmas!

        Book Review: The Emotional Toolkit - Seven Power-Skills to Nail Your Bad Feelings, by Darlene Mininni, Ph.D., St. Martin's Press.

        Managing emotion has never been a part of school curriculum, nor has it been a regular part of parenting. Parents learn about managing emotion from their parents in a disorganized anecdotal fashion teased out by trial and error. A particularly adverturous child may have many opportunities for learning, while a child that is shy and/or particularly compliant has relatively few. The family style of emotion management is based on a coping method passed on informally from generation to generation by word of mouth. Our modern culture lacks the traditional rites of passage that help ensure we learn the skills of adulthood. Yet emotion management is the single most important skill that determines our social and economic success and ability to maintain our mental health. As a psychotherapist over the past 28 years, I have found that a major part of what I do is educating people on what their emotions mean and how to cope with them.

        I recently had the good fortune of obtaining a copy of Dr. Darlene Mininni's book, The Emotional Tookit. This book is well organized and chock full of most every tool I can think of that will prepare the average person for managing the emotional rollercoaster of adulthood in a complicated world. Although written particularly for women using many real life examples from the author's clinical experience, the skills are just as applicable to men and simple enough to be incorporated in a pre-teen training curriculum. The skills are described in an easy to understand way with many examples of how they can be applied in situations we are all familar with. I greatly appreciate this book and will recommend it to my clients.

        5 out of 5 stars The Emotional Toolkit, an essential tool for all women.......2005-07-26

        For years I have bottled up my emotions, afraid to feel them or been told I wasn't supposed to feel a certain way. As a result, I often experienced physical ailments. After reading Dr. Mininni's toolkit, I realized that I am better able to read my body's reaction and understand the feelings. By bringing them to the surface I now know what tools are needed to handle them. The Emotional Toolkit is a must read for all women, particularly young adults who can hold on to this toolkit as they emerge into well rounded young women.

        5 out of 5 stars This book has changed my life!.......2005-07-12

        This is the best self-help book I ever read. It helped me understand my feelings in a completely new way. When I'm in a bad mood, I know how to get rid of it quickly. It's amazing. Reading her book is like listening to an incredibly smart and helpful girlfriend. I saw Dr. Mininni speak last week, and was mesmerized. She's brilliant, but knows how to talk to everyday women, because she is one. I just ordered copies of the book as gifts for my friends and family. Get this book, and you won't be disappointed.

        5 out of 5 stars A breath of fresh air.......2005-05-29

        This is the book, we have been waiting for. It is like receiving a breath of fresh air. It is so well written. Easy to understand. I recommend it to women and men, boys and girls. I gave a copy to my sixteen year old niece. She loved it so much, she has been recommending the book to all of her friends. She even brought it in to her guidance counsel, in hopes they will start a class based on Dr. Mininnis' book. Thank you Dr. Mininni, for such a wonderful, helpful book.

        5 out of 5 stars Outstanding! A life-changing book.......2005-05-25

        This is the book so many women have been waiting for! It's a readable, engaging, engrossing, and incredibly helpful look at how we can better manage our emotions. Anyone who has ever felt helpless in the grip of sadness, anger, depression, or a host of other negative feelings can benefit from Dr. Mininni's smart strategies.

        On a personal level, this book empowered me to both acknowledge the validity of my emotions and to find ways to actively manage them rather than letting them run my life. Dr. Mininni offers techniques that can work with every personality type, including some that I now incorporate into my daily routines. I found her sections on how to analyze your feelings by paying attention to your body signals to be especially helpful, since we often mask painful feelings beneath other emotions.

        In short, The Emotional Toolkit is an outstanding choice for anyone looking to understand and manage feelings and emotions. I can't recommend it highly enough.
