Don’t hold it against the book that I took so long to finish it! It didn’t help that when lent ended I just had to jump to the next book to read the Glorious mysteries then. I only finally got back to this one and finished it. And yes since it had been so long I really wanted to start back over because it was so good..😂 I will definitely be rereading this one and the Joyful mysteries one over many times. I especially like how he keeps referring to “our times” which despite being 60 years later are still almost the same! His writing inspires me better than most other things I read!
