Let the Magic Begin is the powerful, inspiring story of Cathy Lee's journey back into the realm of what she calls the Bliss Zone. It is her totally entertaining, yet heartfelt account of how life forced her out of the march of reality, and into that magical place we all knew as children where pure energy, creativity, and joy abound, and where coincidences open up a whole new world of possibility in each and every moment. With grace, humor, and courage, she re-ignites, step-by-step, the magnificence of who we really are. Cathy Lee not only shares with us the facts of what happened during this incredible six-year odyssey, but also the actual process of how she arrived back at the center of things and back to her connection with the very core of her being. As she struggles to find the answers to the two questions that had eluded her since childhood - Who am I? and Why am I on this earth? - you will eagerly join her in your own magical quest to fulfill your destiny.… (more)

Cathy Lee Crosby is an internationally known and multi-talented actress, writer, producer and philanthropist. She was a seventh-ranked professional tennis player who went on to star in 60 feature films, three off-Broadway plays and was co-host of the television series That's Incredible! during the 1980s and early 1990s.

In 1995, four major life events occurring in quick succession - the death of her grandmother, contracting Epstein-Barr Syndrome, her divorce from football star Joe Thiesman and declaring bankruptcy when Joe sued her for half of all her assets - led Cathy Lee Crosby into a realm of darkness and despair. This book follows her struggle back to what she calls "The Bliss Zone" - the place of inner peace, contentment and the pure "magic" of life.

I must say that this was the first time that I had actually read this book, after having it on my downstairs bookcase for about three years. I normally love autobiographies, and while this particular book started out very strongly, about halfway through it became bogged down (at least in my opinion) with Cathy Lee's metaphysical and 'New Age' practices. I believe in the miraculous, and in the little coincidences of life - please don't misinterpret my thinking on that score - I just don't believe that everything is ultimately a 'sign from the cosmos' to be dissected and studied down to the last minutest detail.

I did enjoy parts of this book, however I found that at certain points in the book Cathy Lee Crosby became somewhat of a name dropper and that ultimately lessened my enjoyment of this book. I give this book a strong B+! and look forward to potentially passing it on to another interested reader of non-fiction. ( )
