Review

Part personal memoir, part spiritual self-help guide, this book consists
of 29 brief chapters followed by even briefer “reflection starters.”
The author, who is currently an Anglican priest, has some interesting
ideas to share. Unfortunately, her book seems to be aimed at readers
with a short attention span: her striving for simplicity frequently
leads to the merely simplistic. In addition, non-Anglican readers may be
put off by the book’s strong Anglican emphasis.
