Maybe I was expecting something different from this book。 It was not what I expected。 The book was just an ok read。 Dragged in places and for me, some of the questions he answered were “eh”。 Nothing really gripping in this book。 Thanks to Netgalley, the author and the publisher for the arc of this book in return for my review。 Receiving the book in this manner had no bearing on this review。

Anna,
The reader who reviewed this book, Alicia Bayer, has obviously never attended one of Matt’s readings。 He tells person after person details about their lives that no one could come up with。 There are no “cold reads” as Alicia talks of。 I have personally had him read for me and there was no way to know the details about my life that he knew。 She also talks about people who went to his readings to try and expose him as a fraud, which they were unable to do basically, because he isn’t a fraud。 It’s The reader who reviewed this book, Alicia Bayer, has obviously never attended one of Matt’s readings。 He tells person after person details about their lives that no one could come up with。 There are no “cold reads” as Alicia talks of。 I have personally had him read for me and there was no way to know the details about my life that he knew。 She also talks about people who went to his readings to try and expose him as a fraud, which they were unable to do basically, because he isn’t a fraud。 It’s an ability that he has had since he was a very young boy and the book shares the experiences he has had throughout his life。 No rainbows and butterflies。 He just tells it like it is。 。。。more
Alicia Bayer,
I suspect that this book will mostly have one star reviews and five star reviews, with not much in the middle。 If you want to believe all that Fraser says, you're going to love the book。 It's nothing but sunshine and rainbows。 Everything works out after you die。 Your loved ones are always with you。 They've lost all of the bad things about themselves。 They forgive everything。 They can help you from heaven。 There are no bad spirits to worry about as long as you don't use Ouija boards and invite th I suspect that this book will mostly have one star reviews and five star reviews, with not much in the middle。 If you want to believe all that Fraser says, you're going to love the book。 It's nothing but sunshine and rainbows。 Everything works out after you die。 Your loved ones are always with you。 They've lost all of the bad things about themselves。 They forgive everything。 They can help you from heaven。 There are no bad spirits to worry about as long as you don't use Ouija boards and invite them in。 You'll be the perfect version of yourself after you die。 It doesn't matter what religion you are。 Everything is perfect。Fraser fills the book with stories of people he supposedly gave readings to and the spirits who basically show up every other minute with precise details about the people he's talking to。 I was curious about him so I looked him up and this didn't actually gel with what one skeptic reported who went to one of his shows with a few others trying to out him as a fraud (they were 6 of 1,000 in the crowd and he didn't single them out for anything so it was a bust in that way)。 That attendee reported that he mostly did classic cold reading tricks where he did things like ask one row of people to stand up and said he saw a "father figure" around the area and asked if the number three meant anything to anyone。 It would be pretty hard not to get a taker with stuff like that。Fraser is young (30) and writes like a young man。 He talks about making a vision board where he specifically wanted to marry a pageant queen from Rhode Island 🙄 and how he got his wish (the first Miss Rhode Island was a dud but he married the second one he met)。 He basically came off like a charming, slightly slimy con man to me, but I have to admit that I'd love it if his utopian after-world were true。 Ultimately, he didn't convince me though。I read a digital ARC of this book for review。 。。。more
