I received a free copy of, Holy Habits from the Sacred Heart, by Emily Jaminet, from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I have never heard of The Sacred Heart Enthronement, before reading this book. This book is about the Sacred Heart, including the author's life growing up centered around the Sacred Heart, their are prayers and reflection questions. I learned a lot more about the Sacred Heart in this book, then I had with my Catholic education. This is a really interesting read, I really enjoyed learning about the Sacred Heart.

This was a wonderful book. I am so glad that I read it and will need to purchase an actual book for my own home library. I really enjoyed the reflection questions, testimonies and prayers that were included in each chapter. I think the author did a great job showing how important it is for us to be devoted and consecrate ourselves to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to draw closer to Our Lord, you won’t regret this book.

Holy Habits of the Sacred Heart includes ten chapters, each short enough to digest in one session, centered on a particular virtue (prudence, temperance, etc.). Using testimonies and personal experience, and drawing deeply on devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Emily Jaminet creates a compelling case for this beautiful devotion given to us via St. Margaret Mary Alacoque.

The author has ably shared how devotion to the Sacred Heart can be applied in your life - to bring peace to your home, fight addictions, forgive offenses, and more. This was the perfection choice for June reading (the month dedicated to the Sacred Heart) and preparation for our home enthronement.

For many years now I have been growing in my own devotion to the Sacred Heart so I was very excited to come upon this title. This is a very interesting little work in which Emily Jaminet mixes shares stories from her own life (and the lives of others) with quotes and sound theology to help draw the reader into practices that she learned from the Sacred Heart.

This is a wonderful book to use for your prayer routine/as a devotional. I have been getting into the Sacred Heart devotion and this is perfect! There were some things in here that I brought to my prayer journal.

This book helped me understand better the devotion to the Sacred Heart, which the author explains beautifully. The way it is written and the stories were just not for me.

Emily Jaminet once again has found a way to share her love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus with today's reader. "Holy Habits from the Sacred Heart" is a down-to-earth, concrete book that shows you 10 habits you can develop that will bring you closer to Jesus. This book is packed with do-able advice for building spiritual muscle while you build up your relationships. I like the reflection questions at the end of each chapter, which you can use for journaling or for group discussion. (Netgalley review)
