I am not the kind of person who reads a lot of self-help books but I actually liked reading the book for the most part. In spite of the constant pushing of catholic ideals(which I am not a fan of), the book contains some thoughts/reflections of the author that are quiet unique and thought provoking. I think this book would a good read if you are willing to look past the all the catholic ideals. And if you are devoted a catholic(fyi:I am not), just go for it.
