Pacific Book Review
In “Letters to Grace: The Angel Diaries,” Monica Page describes her return to imagination by spiritually reconnecting with her childhood imaginary friend, Grace, who becomes her newfound guardian angel in her adult life. Page describes her spiritual process with Grace and how she puts all her trust into her guardian angel, making stress and anxiety from daily life seem insignificant. Page’s book is written in the forms of letters to her guardian angel and include dialogue and input from Grace herself. The writing is playful and easy to follow, allowing for an interesting escape into someone else’s view on spiritually.
This book is for those who feel that they have lost touch with their youth, or their spirituality. Page shows how using imagination, creativity and spirituality to connect with your true self and thoughts – allows for a carefree way to live. The author uses her own life as an example to readers; she shows us it is possible to go beyond our daily worries and find the answers by using our own imagination. This book is for those who are interested in spiritual growth and are open to learning about a different point of view on spirituality. Page offers accessible insight on spirituality and imagination for any reader ready to embark on a new journey involving their own spirituality.
I think Page’s story would appeal better as a spiritual guide rather than a memoir, though she writes a true story about her life, her story deals with many of the same issues adults face in their own lives. Although there are minimal points in the book where Page discusses her spiritual process, I think the work would serve more to readers this way. However, Page’s book is a good place to start for a reader looking to dive deeper into their own spiritual life. It shows how a perfectly normal person can find comfort by returning to their childlike imagination and calling forth a deep spirituality, rather than tackling problems all on their own in a superficial manner.
