Real deal

John writes so everyone can understand and I found myself crying tears of joy for some of the people seeking messages from the other side. I find it comforting to know that loved ones are still here with me even though I can't see them.

This was so cool to read. Even if you dont believe in psychic mediums, it's wonderful to know our family is still close after they pass.
I did really love hearing John Holland's entire story. I'm sure he could elaborate more, but I appreciate him trying to reach all people.

In John Holland’s book, he wrote about coming to terms with his psychic ability. As a child growing up in Boston, he lived a “normal” life, dealing with happiness and sadness the same as other children. But he soon realised that he was different from other children. John was the child of an alcoholic father, which caused him to grow up quickly, and when he discovered he had psychic abilities, he was unable to seek support from his parents, and had to set himself on his psychic journey on his own. The book is written in 3 parts. Part one deals with John accepting his gift; part two gives details of specific readings; part three outlines John’s work as a medium, and some simple lessons that can help readers to develop their own abilities.

I was disappointed with the number of printing errors (mostly missing words). However, I enjoyed reading this book, as I have personally experienced some of the events that John described. I found it very interesting, intriguing and very relevant for me.

A Comprehensive Overview of Psychic Mediumship

I’ve read a lot of books about psychic mediumship and was quite impressed with this book. Not only is John’s story about growing up psychic interesting, but his description of the phenomenon, spirits and how it all works was quite comprehensive and useful. Great stories about connecting with spirits! Worth a read if this topic interests you.

John is truly a gifted psychic and Medium. This book really details his struggles with growing up with his gift of being psychic. It's heartfelt and comforting at the same time - especially for those of us who have struggled with being different. John Holland is a wonderful author and I highly recommend this book.

I found the readings to be very emotional. I enjoyed every one of them. I wish that there was more information on how to hone your psychic abilities.

Fascinating read and such a great journey John has been on; I can count him as one of my if not THE favorite psychic/medium instructors in my opinion.

Loved it and gave it to my dad to read. Now on to the second book!

Very helpful for those who are interested in their sixth sense. Had I known someone like John when I was younger, I may never had been afraid of the things I saw and 'knew'.
