I really, really enjoyed this book. The author's struggles with her spirituality and the world around her resonated deeply with me, and I loved her humorous, down-to-earth approach to such staggering concepts as loving our fellow person, dealing with death, and cleaning out the refrigerator.

This is a great read for anyone who is interested in other faiths and spiritualities, anyone who is questioning their own beliefs, or anyone who just wants a little pick-me-up from a practical and sympathetic voice.

This was the first Geri Larkin book I read. I was so taken with it that I bought copies for my children and friends, then read all of her other books. I liked it so much because on one hand it was pretty light and enjoyable reading, almost escapist to me, yet it was certainly profound. I was encouraged to keep on keeping on.
