And if you can't get enough of bizarre stories set in the afterlife, then here are a few great books to check out in between episodes.Īfter all, literature is full of different visions of the afterlife.

He also has the added struggle of being the only survivor and having to deal with all the attention that this brings, and all the focus on him from the families who lost their loved ones on the flight. We then follow Edward as he goes to live with his Aunt and Uncle and has to work through the grief of losing his family and having to find a new life for himself in amongst all the guilt and fear. It’s the story of Edward who boards a plane with his family and ends up being the sole survivor when it crashes. This is a stunning book that I read back in February and I still find myself thinking about it. So today I’m doing mini book reviews of some of those novels. This means there are books that have been read over really long periods or that I was reading when I felt so unwell and the details of plots are no longer strong in my mind. I was just starting to feel better when lockdown happened and my concentration has been rubbish up until the last few days. It started off great but then I was quite unwell late January into February and I barely read anything. ![]() This year has been a really up and down year for reading. ![]() ![]() He never recovered from the Titanic and lived out the rest of his life solitarily in Ireland. The one thing I learned about a passenger that I hadn’t heard before was about Bruce Ismay. ![]() There wasn’t a lot of characterization in this book which was fine with the ‘hard facts’ mood that Lord picked. The crew is an often-forgotten group as well but Lord did them tribute. I’m glad he focused on people of all classes instead of on the first class ‘glamorous’ experience. It helped make this slim volume very engaging. He didn’t weigh down in the loading, construction, or investigations. I enjoyed that he stuck to a set time frame, the night of the sinking. Thankfully, Lord stuck to facts and this book was a wonderfully detailed account. However, finding the wreckage changed a lot of ‘known’ facts about the sinking. I know that sounds silly when it’s about such a historic event. I wasn’t sure if this would feel dated to me. Wives beseeched husbands to join them in lifeboats gentlemen went taut-lipped to their deaths in full evening dress and hundreds of steerage passengers, trapped below decks, sought help in vain. ![]() ![]() Some sacrificed their lives, while others fought like animals for their own survival. First published in 1955, A Night to Remember remains a completely riveting account of the Titanic’s fatal collision and the behavior of the passengers and crew, both noble and ignominious. ![]() ![]() His family stories show that even a revered yogi faces family resistance. He takes two trips to the Himalayas, one more successful than the other. He connects with various spiritual men, and as a young adult chooses his lifelong guru. Setting that aside, Yogananda journeys from city to city. She survived only on the light of her spiritual connections. And even a female yogi who ate and drank nothing for fifty years. He reveres deathless and age-defying yogis. Yogananda tells countless stories of gurus and swamis traveling through time and space, adjusting their physical form to the situation. ![]() In general, I’m a spiritual skeptic so I admit that large parts of this book just didn’t reach me. Studying the spiritual aspects of yoga beyond a minimal ten-minutes-a-day meditation practice isn’t for me. But I’m a Western yoga student, focusing on the postures. I decided to read this book because I revived my dormant yoga practice recently. And as you might imagine, the spiritual stories include astral and metaphysical locations. But primarily, they’re set in locations throughout Yogananda’s home country of India. The stories are wide-ranging and vary between India and the U.S. ![]() ![]() Yogananda details episodes in his spiritual and bodily life from childhood until the book’s publication around 1945. Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda is exactly that. ![]() ![]() It is a journey to the understanding that we are flawed by design so that we can find strength and beauty in relying entirely on the Flawless.

It is a purposeful process, designed by God to shape our hearts. This life and our entire journey here, is not an end in itself. But what if we didn't have to hide? What if our wound became the door to a deeper understanding of ourselves and God? What if every wound served a purpose and the process of healing made us stronger? ![]() We look for any way to hide from our wounds and to numb the pain. But we spend our lives trying.Īs flawed human beings, we so often cringe at our humanness. And even fewer people know how to fill that emptiness.
