Finding out about my past life was both exhilarating and disturbing experience. I was never intended of seeking to find out about my past life, thinking that I most likely was a person like million other cases, an unknown, undocumented personality, whose life is hidden behind the veils of history.

Kevo explains the corruption that Government, Religion, and Education has caused on society. He defines reality as what it "really is", and gives a great mind opening example on how to identify the lies reality tells us all. The book is broke into 7 segments, and he begins each segment with an inspirational quote. He covers subjects that intrigue the narcissist, and encourages the growth of the closed minded. He explains how to use energy, how to tap into your subconscious, and even how to attract favorable outcomes in life. His message is very well put, and his political opinions, OBVIOUS concise Bible research, and passionate take on education and society convinces the reader- Reality [IS] Wrong.

5 stars! By Maria Savva The third and final book of Cindy Bauer's entertaining Memory Box Trilogy, and I feel this is the most accomplished of the three. Cindy Bauer has really found her voice in this book. 'Crystal Clear' picks up from where 'Shades of Blue' left off, with little Annie asking for Susan's help. I couldn't help feeling almost sentimental as I started to read the book, meeting up again with the loveable characters from the first two books. As the story progresses, we are taken on an exciting, nail-biting journey, wondering what is to become of Laura, Annie and Greg. Someone is out to get Annie, but who could have a grudge against this girl... and is it only Annie they are after? Is this stalker also hell-bent on destroying the whole family? The book is full of suspenseful action and mystery. I found it an enthralling read, and I couldn't wait to find out what happened to all the characters. The book nicely wraps up the trilogy, so that the reader is not left wondering about anything. It is a satisfying and wonderful ending to a very emotional journey. I'd love to see this trilogy made into a film.

The second book in Cindy Bauer's 'Memory Box Trilogy'. The spotlight is now on Susan as the protagonist (Laura's nanny from the first book 'Chasing Memories.') This is a nice twist, as I had expected the main character from the first book - Laura, to again be the focus of the story. Laura and her family and other familiar characters do continue to play important roles in the book. Susan has married the man of her dreams, Tom; however, it is not long before things start to go wrong. Susan realises too late that she may not have known everything about Tom before she married him, and there are some very dark secrets waiting to be uncovered. Cindy Bauer has done well in portraying the character of Susan as a very typical victim of domestic violence, a woman who is blinded by her love for her partner so much that she does not see the signs and does not heed the warnings. Half way through the book I was wondering whether Susan was a credible character as it seemed almost impossible that someone who had suffered so much at the hands of their partner would continue going back for more even though she had close friends who were willing to help her. However, as the story progresses, Cindy Bauer manages to develop Susan's character well, so she does become believeable. In fact she reminded me of women I came across when I worked as a lawyer assisting women who were victims of domestic violence. There are many tragedies and problems for Susan to deal with in the novel. I found the novel to be very engrossing in parts, especially the second half of the book. At the end there is a surprising twist which hints at what is to come in the third book to keep the reader hooked. Cindy has again produced an inspirational novel which is a must-read for anyone suffering similar problems in their daily life. 4 Stars! - Maria Savva - UK

FIVE STAR REVIEW "Laura had an ideal life. She had a great husband and had been blessed with an adorable daughter, Annie. Life was good, until a drunk driver tragically ended Steven's life, leaving his wife and child alone. Laura was grief stricken, acting more on basic instinct, until her daughter's comforting words brought her back to life. They struggled to make ends meet, even with Laura's job at Hensen's department store, the money was tight, but Annie always had what she needed. With her parent's living in Georgia, Laura had few people she felt close to. Susan was her best friend, taking care of Annie while Laura worked, and Laura was also quite fond of her elderly neighbors, the Parkers. When Mr. Parker had a stroke, Laura watched over his wife, but her good deed met with a terrible ending, when a sliding car knocked her off her feet. Miraculously, Laura had only broken her leg, but she'd also lost her memory, neither recognizing her friends, her family, or her child. During Laura's hospital stay, Susan stepped in and took care of Annie. It was a difficult situation, especially since her best friend couldn't remember either her or Annie, and Susan needed a diversion to take Annie's mind from her mother's troubles, suggesting they start decorating for the Christmas season. Excitedly, Annie and Susan prepared the surprise for Laura's homecoming, and though Laura was impressed with their efforts, she felt out of place facing her previous life. Weeks past, and though disturbing visions had come to her dreams, it seemed that Laura was no closer to remembering things than she'd been that first day, no matter how much she tried. She mostly faked her way through each day; until life became an acceptable routine, but it seemed that her troubles weren't yet over when her home caught on fire. Chasing Memories is a heart-touching story, with a bittersweet conclusion. This is a touching storyline. I read with anticipation, hoping for a happy finale, but I was left with the feeling of melancholy. Cindy Bauer writes well, creating believable story lines and likable characters. I enjoyed this read quite a bit, and I admired Laura's strength, despite the hard knocks. Great Read!" -- Ghostwriter Reviews
