Week 3 : Read 52 Books in 52 Weeks

 Week 3: the book I read was:


Title: A Light So Lovely (The Spiritual Legacy of Madeleine L’Engle)

Author: Sarah Arthur

Pages: 202

Started: 1/16/22

Ended:1/20/22

Stars: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Summary: The author talks about Madeleine’s work in relation to her religious beliefs.

Thoughts: I liked it. I’ve never read any of L’Engles books and this made me want to read her adult nonfiction. The author does a good job of showing how Madeleine’s work is congruent with her religious beliefs.

Week 2 ‘Read 52 Books,52 Weeks’

 For Week 2, the book I read is:


Title: The Grace of Enough

Author: Haley Stewart

Pages: 152

Started: 1/9/2022

Ended: 1/12/2022

Stars: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


Summary: Haley talks about how to live a more simple life, with less material positions as a Catholic.

Thoughts: I thought it was a good book. As a Catholic, I connected with it, especially the chapters dealing with how to get more involved with the Church in small ways to give back to the community. It was insightful without being preachy. A non-Catholic could read it and would get something out of the book.
