I felt like the author would have an approachable style, except the editing problems drown out the points he tried to make. Thanks for reading and commenting!

A book focused on how to get a God-centred, calm, and balanced life is uplifting and I really anticipate reading it. Nice review.

I definitely think there are others in the genre that are better organized and better editing, making for a smoother read. Thank you for reading and commenting!

I was very excited about it after reading the blurb, but the editing issues were rampant and distracting. Knowing exactly what to expect, though, will probably make it easier to just glean the positives from reading it. I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for reading and replying.

If only we could reduce the Bible to formulas for life! It doesn't work that way. Apparently he thought 18 formulas was enough. Thanks for your candid and honest review.

Yeah, he might be heavily oversimplifying. Thank you for reading and commenting!
