How to Successfully Skew Reality by Shayna Abrams

How to Successfully Skew Reality by Shayna Abrams is one of those books that for me kept saying what I already believed about reality, the nature of God (which she renames the Universal Life Force), and evolution. Her book is available free at Bibliofastic.com. I would encourage the author to do speaking engagements and talk about her experiences going “crazy” which provided her with some very sane insights.


Abrams maintains that there is a greater unexplainable power in the Universe that gives human beings exactly what they need exactly when they need it. Abrams goes on to describe different scenarios that while at first may appear negative, when examined using the belief that the Universe gives you exactly what you need when you need it can be interpreted as positive.

Abrams says her goal with this book is to convince you that life is not black and white and that gray is your new favorite color.

I usually think of the word skew as having negative connotations, but Abrams demonstrates what she means by skewing reality, by asking you to shift your prospective or how you look at a situation. This “skew” or shift in prospective allows you to see the new “gray” of that situation.

This book is simply a different way of describing the concept of having a positive attitude. However as Abrams points out herself ”one sentence in a book that hits you in the right place can be the exact thing you needed to hear at exactly the right time that made enough sense to you that something all of the sudden clicks. That is the “click” everyone who has written a book on this subject hopes for.”

I think the author will find a lot of people who will "click" when reading her book. You can find her book free at: http://bibliotastic.com
