Gem Stones A to Z
A Handy Reference to Healing Crystals
by Diane Stein

I just love reviewing Diane Stein's stuff, it's like a little trip to Heaven every time. I enjoyed this 246 page gem guide very much, and was especially pleased with the magnitude of stones and the depth of info for each one. I found the beautiful pictures of the stones very helpful for identification purposes. Many times I have been rummaging through my old things and come across a stone and have no idea what the it's type was so when i have pictures it makes it a lot easier.

I also find neat goodies like an easy to follow glossary, and two informative chakra charts that collate with the different stones. I found the info to be straight up and simple to understand and show more the personal story that the author shares at the beginning was a real treat. I would recommend this enlightened helper to anyone at any stage of their spiritual development, especially those drawn to healing. Thanks again Diane, you always know just what to share.

Love & Light,

Riki Frahmann
