The Secret

“The Secret” first came to my attention when I saw Samantha reading it in a scene from the Sex and the City movie and I decided to investigate further.

I suspect that maybe a lot of people will pick this up or click “Add to Basket” as they are eager to find out what The Secret's secret is, but in reality once you've read a few pages you'll be familiar with the concept - I have heard of the concept before now at least.

Keeping this idea in mind, the book itself is very easy to read and you'll finish it within a few days of starting. The ideas, instructions, suggestions, points and counterpoints all make sense and are straight forward. I can see no reason why everyone cannot benefit enormously.

My grumbles, although minor are more due to the clever marketing/branding of the book and also the multiple personality aspect the book seems to have. It is as if Byrne has collated many ideas, cut and pasted them together with a few additional musings of her own and then slapped her name on the front.

I am generally positive about this potentially life changing book. I did enjoy it and will re-read it again as well as recommending it to others to read.

Keep and open mind and see what it can do for you.
