When you find a new book by chance, you never know what you are going to get. Sometimes, when I read a story, I go away with a deeper understanding and another piece of the puzzle for my own life. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, I am thrilled to the core. That’s exactly what I experienced the other night as I finished the metaphysical fiction — Changing Planes, by award winning author Laurie J. Brenner.

I ordered the book from Amazon and when it came and it fell out of the box, I was first taken aback by it’s beautiful cover. The cover alone intrigued me, and after reading the book, I see why. I was glad that it was only a novella, because my life is really too hectic for a novel the size of War and Peace, but when I started reading, I found I couldn’t put it down.

Even though I write for a living, I don’t have the words to describe the richness this little story provided me. It gave me such an insight into my own life and my own need of

This book should be read by millions. Don’t be left out — this is going to be a big hit, I can tell, I have a sense about these things — and it would translate very well into a movie, especially with all the special effects that they can do nowadays. If you can get through it without crying, then your heart has turned into a rock, this book may well be what the doctor ordered to turn it to flesh once again.

Madison Reeves, a young, ambitious VP of a high-end department store, is about to embark on the journey of a lifetime. She doesn’t know it as she heads for the airport on a Caribbean vacation, yet something nags at her, deep in the recesses of her mind.

When Madison reaches the airport terminal, things begin to go awry, but not in a noticeable sense. After boarding the plane and taking off, the needled on the weird meter kick up a notch until Madison has to admit that something strange is indeed going on.

These strange occurrences continue after the plane leaves the ground and rapidly escalate until Madison can no longer deny that something extraordinary is going on.

When she disembarks her plane in a airport terminal hung suspended between the worlds of the living and the dead, Madison realizes she isn’t in “this” world any longer. This is confirmed when her long deceased grandfather meets her at her gate.

Madison’s journey here forward is the adventure of all adventures, the look behind the curtain. You are compelled to read on to discover what she finds and what happens to her in the long run.

As you follow along with Madison, you see yourself in her shoes, and experience what she experiences. And when you reach the end, you are jarred clear out of your senses. If you read this book and do not realize how our journey in this life is interwoven with the lives of those we love and touch and that small changes we make affect those around us — then you must be asleep at the wheel.

When I looked into the pages of Changing Planes, it was like looking into the mirror of my own soul and finding love and forgiveness there. That alone was worth the read.

But there’s more to the book than that. A wonderful story, Laurie Brenner is a true storyteller that doesn’t bog you down with words that have no meaning — she gives you a succulent story and saves the best parts for last. The story is unforgettable and you find it staying with you days after you’ve put it down.

I was surprised to feel sad when the story reached it’s end. I didn’t want it to end, and for the first time in a long time, I wished the story was longer. From what I understand, this is Laurie Brenner’s first fiction novella, and I can’t wait to read what she writes next. A wonderful storyteller, with an authentic voice, something that is rare these days, Changing Planes is a delightful and easy read for anyone from 20 to 80.
