In this episode of Pages of Wisdom, hosts Kate and Whit explore the intersection of literature and spirituality, discussing the concept of Library Angels and their role in guiding readers through their life journeys. They share personal experiences with book-related signs and synchronicities, emphasizing the importance of being open to receiving guidance based on what feels the most meaningful to the individual.

The conversation delves into how literature can serve as a medium for spiritual experiences + the unique connections readers form with authors and their works and vice versa.
