A Treasure

This is a wonderful story about women and the gifts they share with one another. You can't read this book without learning, loving, and gaining two friends as well as new insights into the befriending of self.

Women will know. Men should learn.

What it is about friendship between women that the author understands: the communication without speech; the understanding without explanation. It's all here and makes me wish all my women friends were alive and within hugging distance!

And it's funny too ...

This book made me ache for my women friends who are gone or far away. Willing Spirits joyously and humorously reaffirmed what I already knew about the wonder of friendship with women. Ms. Schieber's women, who are busy with children, with work, and with the nourishment of the men in their lives, NEVER lose sight of the people whose love gives their own lives center -- their women friends. Loved it. Will give it to many friends for Christmas this year as a token of my friendship.

For intelligent readers only!

These women are real. I know them. Their friendship through the years grows and is nurtured by their innate understanding of each other. Heartbreak, fears and disappointments are made bearable by their friendship. Women will be able to relate with this natural bond. Ms. Schieber writes with elegance and great wit. Don't miss this one!!

Every woman will see something of herself in WILLING SPIRITS

I just couldn't put it down! I loved it, the whole thing, each and every word. This is a book I will read and reread many times over and will treasure for years and years to come. What an incredible job Phyllis Schieber did. I can't imagine any woman reading this and not seeing something of herself in it. I can't imagine any woman reading this and not commiserating with the pain inflicted by Gwen and Jane's partners, the years of unfulfilling and empty sex as they grasped for some form of love, the joy and pain inflicted by their children, the closeness of the WILLING SPIRITS of women that men will never understand. Phyllis Schieber truly defines how special a woman's best friends is and what WILLING SPIRITS we become. This book is good for the heart, mind and souls of all women who read it. Each and every woman will see something of themselves and will take something positive away after reading it.
