Essay two resources

I had reviewed more than five sources about communicating with the dead.
Two of my sources were a book written by the same author. The books are Reaching to Heaven and Talking to Heaven. The author James Van Praagh gives insight on our ability to communicate with the dead. The book helps confirm any questions of doubt that one may have about communicating with the dead. Both books compliment one another. There were many scientific findings and proof provided. Both books were a great asset to my paper.
Another source was a book titled The Truth about Medium. This book was excellent. The author Gary Schwartz wrote his book based on a true life medium. This book offers solid evidence of psychic ability, mediumship, and communication with the dead is real.
I also found a great article from Time Magazine that was very useful to my paper. It answers the question relating to what happens when we die. The article relates to my subject by providing claims of individuals who has experience dieing and coming back to life.

Peer evaluation essay #1

I receive very good feedback from my fellow classmates in reference to my essay. I think all the comments that were posted was very helpful. One of the most important comments I receive on my essay was that it was not catchy. I did not grab the attention of my readers. I will go through my essay and make it more interesting for my readers.
Most of my classmates said I need to work on my introduction and conclusion. I will utilized this information and try to revise both as best as possible. Someone also said that my reference page needs to be in mla format. Again I will utilize all the feedback I received, so my essay will be properly done.
