The Butterfly That Returned by Serene Martin is a collection of uplifting messages that will make readers look into themselves, their perspectives on life and living. 'Call it faith. Call it the law of attraction. Call it the placebo effect. Call it God. Call it inspiration. Call it magic. Call it religion. Call it energy. Call it good luck. Call it whatever you want and get on with it. Because life is so much better when you believe there are larger forces working for you and with you. Because you are never alone.' This quote captures the essence of the rest of the messages shared in the book and can be incorporated into one's daily life without much difficulty.
The messages are inspirational as well as motivational and they are easy to apply and practice. Everything in the book is what readers already know but have pushed aside due to the busy lives they lead. The book is profound and it reaches out to all readers, especially those searching for calm and peace in their lives, and also some encouragement to make changes in their way of living. All the quotes have been put together in a very beautiful and aesthetic manner. The author's words are a celebration of happiness and self-worth and they evoke a good feeling while one is reading. It's a book I will recommend to have in one's personal collection.
