Why You Will Like This Book:
- It's a discussion of the profound Theology of the Body, but focusing on the neglected parts (i.e. the non sex parts).
- She gets the beauty of simplicity, the earth, daily life, and all those Hobbit-ish things.
- It's inspiring. It makes me want to pray well, eat well, exercise well, dress well, live well.
And Why You Might Not:
- I think it could turn off non-Christians and people who were less "Conservative" (see important note below*). It sometimes has that "the modern age is the most horrible age" point of view, which bothers me somewhat, though it's too complicated to get into why I think it's inaccurate.
- I also didn't like it all that much when she did talk about sex and gender. I thought it lacked complexity of thought, and didn't go beyond stereotypes enough. Though again, it probably won't bother most Conservative Christians who are relatively normal (unlike me, apparently).
