The Contentment Dilemma: Examining Life's Mysteries and Purposes by Marcus Hurst is a book that takes us through an age-old human quest: finding true contentment in life. Despite our achievements in life, we often feel unfulfilled, and this remarkable book takes us through how to achieve that ultimate state of inner peace and fulfillment. It not only reveals the source but also takes us through the author's own journey and how he found and achieved a state of fulfillment.

There were several things I liked about this book. A book examining the critical subject of contentment dilemma piqued my interest right away. First, I liked that the author went back to the fundamental, unadulterated truths from the ultimate credible source to show us the only way true contentment can be found. Reflecting on my own life and experience in life, I couldn't help but nod my head to the author's points on most occasions. Second, I liked that this book is practical. The points in this book can be applied right away, and the fact that the author has walked the walk makes it a powerful read.

What I liked most about this book was the author's evident passion for this writing. As much as he referenced other works, he also gave personal stories and testimonies, giving this work credibility and a personal touch. My hopes and expectations for the book's theme were high, as the subject addresses a common human problem, and I was not disappointed in the author's revelations upon finishing the book.

Overall, there was nothing I disliked about The Contentment Dilemma: Examining Life's Mysteries and Purposes by Marcus Hurst. I didn't come across any errors while reading, evidencing its exceptional editing. Therefore, I am glad to give it five out of five stars. This book earns my perfect rating due to the positives I discussed earlier and the fact that I found nothing to dislike about it.

I highly recommend this book to readers who, despite their achievements in life, are still troubled and feel empty on the inside. If you have been looking for fulfillment but haven't achieved it, this book will, in practical ways, help you unearth the true source of peace and contentment. Lastly, it is important to note that the book adopts a Christian perspective on the subject, so it can be readily received by those who already embrace the faith. However, open-minded readers can also find it invaluable. I feel lucky to have found this book, and I'll be rereading it from time to time.

Walking the walk is the best way to demonstrate that what one believes actually works. I am wondering about the sources of contentment that the author addresses. It is, however, true that finding contentment in life is very important. Thanks for the review, @Melisa Jane.
