I absolutely loved this short read! It was perfect for what it states: an introduction. Her writing is so easy to read and connect with - it felt like I was speaking with a friend. (Which can be a great refresher from tough reads from time to time.)

I was expecting sort of an intro book into angel spirituality, both secularly and within various religions... but this wasn’t really that. It’s more of an anecdotal memoir of the author with some tips about connecting with angels. This just wasn’t what I was expecting or looking for. 🤷🏻‍♀️

What a lovely book! I have glanced over other books about similar subjects and I've always found them somewhat boring and repetitive (and often far-fetched). Not this one! I actually didn't want it to end. It is very well written, in a playful tone.

I really liked the fact that the author is very respectful of the reader's beliefs; she talks about her experiences with angels and her beliefs while managing to respect the reader's doubts. For example, she says things along the lines of: if you want to feel the presence of an angel or see him, even if you have doubts, go ahead and do this, just for fun, what do you have to lose?

She lists things you can do to communicate with your angel, little "games" you can play, and I did play some of them and was pleasantly surprised, sometimes even shocked. I identified with a lot of things written in the book and I found myself smiling several times while reading them.
I definitely recommend this book, you may find yourself very pleasantly surprised whether you believe in angels or not.

I believe in guardian angels and how they give help in many ways. I wanted to know more about the introduction to spiritual guidance. It is a quick read and a good intro. However, I was looking for more. Other than shouting, "Hey, will you reveal yourself to me?" how can I communicate with my angels? I prefer to speak daily than just when I need them the most.

The author has experience with her guardian angels, and I am glad she is telling her story and making it normal to talk about angels and spiritual guidance.

We will see if my angels answer my questions and beliefs.

I really enjoyed this book. It took me more than a week to read it, I didn’t note that on here but ONLY because, i took my time with it and really engaged with what I was reading. I learnt a lot about angels from this book and the stories of how they help humans in our time of need or give us signs to make certain decisions is wonderful. Anyone who wants to know more about angels should read it as a starter or introduction to A Little Bit Of Angels!!!

This is a lovely little book I picked up to read on a day I was feeling run down and looking for something to entertain me while taking it easy. This book, just like angel encounters was simple yet surprising. The entire book is a prayer and if you read it with an open heart, no matter where you are on your journey in working with angels, you will receive a revelation I think. My only critique is that the author appears to have some blind spots with cultural appropriation.

This account of angels and messages sent from above was eye-opening to read about. Still, I'm a bit skeptic to angels being this involved in anyone's life, but I appreciate the lessons in humility and patience one can learn from this book. It's true that sometimes it pays not to be a self-centered ass.

A great introduction to angelology. Fantastic resource regarding intuition, angel guides, angel work, etc. It was really special reading the author’s personal experiences with angelic beings.
