Practical Applications of Alchemy Book

Another book where I wish I could give less than one star. My friend borrowed this book from the library for me because the title sounded cool, but as soon as I saw who the author was, my heart sank.

The Psychic? Writing about secret societies?

The entire book reads like a wiki page that needs to have its sources check. For a serious research book like this, one would think she would have a wealth of sources, but she never quotes any. In fact, there isn't even a bibliography in the back. The closest she gets to citing any sources is one of her favourite lines "Francine says". But who the hell is Francine and why are we listening to her? Beats the hell out of me. It's her "spiritual guide" which only makes me think the lady is nuts. Talking to your spiritual guide does NOT count as research.

This could be such an interesting book if it was written by someone else. One whose other favourite line is "Isn't it interesting that..." The same kind of heavy supposition bull that FOX News often uses. Basically, she goes everywhere and is suspicious of a world wide conspiracy (that's right people, the UN is going to become Big Brother one day and kick everyone's ass).

Basically. Not worth the money and I'm sad that I even bothered to waste my time with this garbage. It honestly would have been better spent reading a bargain bin crappy romance novel.

If you have any actual interest in secret societies and are looking for intelligently conveyed information... don't read this book.
