What reviewers are saying about Spirit Matters:  

“Spirit is immaterial, but incredibly vital to a person's well being. "Spirit Matters" is author Matthew Pallamary's personal and candid reflections on finding his own spirituality. His tale takes him from the harsh streets of Boston all the way across the Caribbean to the Amazon, where he soon figures out what really matters in life. A guide to becoming aware of one's true spirituality, "Spirit Matters" is a must for those who are going through life with no direction and no contentment.”  Midwest Book review

“Spirit Matters is an inspiring journey of healing and self transformation coming straight from the heart. Pallamary's search for truth is not only a page turner, it is energized with a blue print for evolution. Bravo!”                       Amazon five star reviewer.

“Matthew J. Pallamary’s Spirit Matters: A Memoir is a powerful attestation that splendidly recreates one man’s quest for truth.”    Norman Goldman, editor of BookPleasures.com

“An inspiring literary work with a deeper understanding of the connection to the spirit that carries us through life.”            Amazon five star reviewer.       

“Spirit touches us in every moment of our existence; only most of us are caught up in the dramas that we have created in our lives, blinding us to a reality far greater than anything we can imagine with our rational minds,” says Pallamary. “It is simply a matter of awareness.”
