    Product Description

    Marilyn Monroe Returns reveals provocative new evidence that the reincarnation of Marilyn Monroe is a top-of-the-charts Canadian singer named Sherrie Lea Laird, a woman who shares undeniably remarkable similarities with the legendary icon. Stunning photos throughout the book powerfully demonstrate the many characteristics these two ladies share.

    In her own words, Sherrie Lea reflects on a lifetime of being Marilyn: her childhood as Norma Jean, her rise to superstardom, as well as her many loves. And, most dramatically, Sherrie Lea answers a question that has plagued Marilyn's fans for more than forty years: Was Marilyn's death truly a suicide?

    "When I was eleven or twelve, I was sitting on my aunt's knee and we were talking about the beauty mark just above my lip. I asked what it was. It looked stupid to me. She began singing, 'A kiss on the hand can be quite continental, but diamonds are a girl's best friend.' The lyrics just echoed in my head, as if coming down a long corridor of sound form the past. I asked, 'What's that?' She said it was a song from an old movie, sung by someone famous: Marilyn Monroe. My aunt only said that she was a singer, but I had this coy, sly feeling and said to myself, 'Why do I feel like she's talking about me?'"--from the book

    1 out of 5 stars Look! Some other sap trying to make money off Marilyn's name.   August 15, 2007

    Whoever gave this book 5 stars is insane! How could you applaud someone for objectifying a human in this way? Especially if you're a Marilyn fan. I'm so very dissapointed that 45 years after her death idiots are still trying to cash in on her name. She was a person, not a product!

    However, if you are reading this soley for the purpose of getting some information on reincarnation then more power to you. I just wish it could have been approched in a much less offensive manner.



    2 out of 5 stars Boring and a bit creepy   January 11, 2007

    I have read many books on reincarnation. In fact, I find reincarnation a valid theory and am always eager to read new books on this fascinating subject. I am also interested in Hollywood. So this seemed like the perfect synergy. However, it's a major disappointment. Much of the book consists of transcripts of hypnotic regression sessions and emails. Many of these go over the same information and are tedious, boring, and even embarrassing. My take on Sherrie is that she is at worst someone who is desperate to further her entertainment career. She comes across as needy, a bit shallow, and saddled with a histrionic personality disorder. The biggest problem I have, however, is with Dr. Finkelstein. He seems much more calculating, controlling, and perhaps involved in an inappropriate relationship with his patient. Numerous times he writes about how attractive and sexual he finds Sherrie. In addition, he includes many transcripts and emails with Sherrie telling him how wonderful he is. Furthermore, the doctor tells her he was a healer for her in a previous life. He's also amazingly unscientific when he tries to prove his points. For example, he attempts to regress Sherrie's daughter to prove that she's the reincarnation of Marilyn's mother Gladys. The regression doesn't work, and the doctor actually states "This was a form of proof in itself that she was really Marilyn Monroe's tormented mother in her last life." WHAT?! Seriously, does that make any sense? I could go on and on, but the gist is that the book offers an intriguing concept but is deeply flawed. The only good that will come from it is that more people will be exposed to reincarnation and want to learn more about it. God forbid, however, this be anyone's first book on reincarnation.


    5 out of 5 stars A great book that I read   November 23, 2006

    My name is Stephanie. I like the book I read about Marilyn Monroe in another ladies body very much. I loved to look at the pictures. My dad and I both talked about it alot. I know that me and my family have been togehter forever and ever. I think Sherry is very pretty and is nice to try to help the world
    by telling us about her life. I see kids in school sometimes that I think i was with in another school before. One day I'm going to visit the doctor and he can tell me more about my life before this one. Thank you



    5 out of 5 stars Makes eerie, logical sense   October 10, 2006

    This story is really "out there" enough to ring true. I think they got themselves caught up in too much worry about "the naysayers," other than that the story was well-told.
    Dr. Adrian gives a good background of his work and experience. As a result us folks who are not "hip" to the whole reincarnation scene learn a surprising amount of new information from his in-your-face attitude of writing style.
    I think it's great that Marilyn came back to clarify the end of her life - in my opinion (SPOILER HERE) the Kennedy's DID indirectly kill this woman by screwing with her head. It's sad her and Joe DiMaggio never got their second chance, but honestly - she was too buzzed to do much at all during the end of her days. I believe the Kennedy's knew this and used her, lied to her, and just went happily on their way.
    I never even considered that the Mob was involved - please. What's funny is that an exorbant amount of people will believe something as far-fetched as M.M. being murdered by a bunch of crazy Italians, but dismiss the possibility of reincarnation!
    I bought this book for my library just because I got the "sense" that this information was of a benefit for me to have and I'm glad I did. It will be interesting to see what others think after they read it. Hopefully, people will post their comments here.
    BOOK's BEST POINT:
    Even her own trademark company continues to make a couple million every year off of Marilyn.
    Me, I see that as people making money off of such a tortured soul - it just doesn't sit well.
    Guess Elton John had it right from the get-go:
    Norma-Jean truly was a candle in the wind.

    When I bought and read this book, I will admit, I was open to the idea of reincarnation, but did not totally believe in the doctrine of it. Having been brought up against the belief of reincarnation, it was a struggle. I started reading the book, and was amazed at the science that went into proving this reincarnation of the soul of Marilyn Monroe.
    A lot of books have been written about Marilyn, mostly to do with her affairs and lifestyle. This book is about healing.

    Marilyn Monroe was such a tortured soul, that a lot of these issues bled over into the life of Sherrie Lea Laird. When she truly sought healing, she found it through regression therapy, by the pioneer in his field, Dr. Adrian Finkelstein.
    There is no sensationalism in this book. It shows the science behind reincarnation, how it heals the soul, and how to find the purpose for this life.

    Truly amazing, well written book. Once I was finished with the book, I became a believer, in the endless journey of the soul.
