Customer Reviews

Alexandra delivers the goods

This book is exactly what the title says: it has insights, reflections, inspirations, and quests. And did I say 'thoughtful' and 'thought provoking'? It's one of my all time favorites and I will treasure it always. I like to use it to inspire my creative thought process. It nudges my spirituality. Great as a gift.

Reaching in, Reaching out

"Grace Notes" is a wonderful, pocket-sized book that urges you to reach in to your inner-self and out to others. Each day list a thoughtful quote, two 'grace notes' and a spot for you to jot down your own ideas. I usually can't help myself and skip ahead to future days. The size is perfect and I can stash the book in my purse or briefcase so I'm never without some helpful encouragement. The only thing I didn't like was the book is a little drab. Everything in the book is black-and-white but I think for such a feel-good book some color is in order.
