Critiques

Great Daily Prayer and Reflection Book


(4 stars)

Great messages and one of a few daily readers in LV. I did have to slow down the reader from my usual speed to get full comprehension but these are important messages that should be well absorbed anyway. I do wish it was easier to navigate to specific days but not a real complaint.

A Well Organized Pragmatic Guide


(5 stars)

This wonderfully performed version of "A Year With the Saints" is a fascinating overview of adherence. It stands out with its brilliant topical organization and vivid illustrations from respected practitioners.

Good for the soul


(5 stars)

Hearing how others from the past chose to deny themselves helps me to realize that I have the same struggles. All readers were easy to understand.

Most helpful book on the spiritual life that I've ever read

Great book, but not the narrator.


(3 stars)

Great book but it's hard to understand the narrator. I'd give it 5 stars if the narrator would enunciate her words better.
