Off to a fantastic start, excellent writing style. Sentences that are coupled into paragraphs for good reason... A train, descriptions are vivid. So far so good, I'm in, I dropped Ivanhoe, I just can't get through it. Thank goodness my husband found this book!

Did I read this already? I really don't remember if I finished it completely. To be continued....

Can't get through this yet..

I've come to enjoy this book, like a BBC TV series, funny British humor.

Fascinating! I love American history and this combines my love for the Church and the USA! Billy the Kid?? and the dangerous Kiowas are just a few of the triumphs of this humble Nun!

I love Chesterton, though at times, I find these stories a bit difficult to follow, probably because I pick them up and put them down. I should read a whole story in a sitting.

Our Lord told St. Catherine of Siena, "I AM, you are not."

Still reading this great book. Chesterton is a MASTER!

Uh-oh, I'm going to be sorry to finish this book, maybe Mr. Gyrboski will have pity on me and point me to another or write another.

Good books are so hard to find, bad books make the business of writing into a sport.

LOVE THIS BOOK!

Oh boy! This book has hooked me. I think I have found a rare gem! Thank you to the Michael Gryboski for suggesting this book!

This book? What can I say? This book is awful.

This is fantastic, a classic, superb writing! I love it.

Will I ever get through this book? Who knows. It's easier now many years after my conversion.

This book is completely meditative, it's so deep, without the graces we cannot possible understand this book. I don't think I would have even understood a thing when I was a protestant.

I LOVE this book, great book for a convert but even for any Catholic to review the many graces that the Mass provides. This is why the SOLA SCRIPTURA just is so weak, the Mass is the entire gospel, Our Lord descends from Heaven and provides so many graces. Catholics have it all, the Pius V Traditional Mass is what the author is talking about.

Almost done, oh the Mass, what glory!

Excellent read, if you like history. This gives you a good idea of the onslaught of Islam onto the Christian world.

Excellent read! So sad it's over! What a great book!

This is really becoming and all time favorite. The details and the accuracy of this book are incredible. I thought it was written recently but now I see that it was published by ArchBishop Goodier in 1944. Get it and read it!

I am not happy that I am almost done with this book and why doesn't Victor Hugo believe that Jean Valjean deserves redemption and full forgiveness. A new life! UGH!

Could not finish it, the author is so descriptive that it's distracting to me. :-)

This is quite an interesting book. Learning about Martin Luther and what exactly made him tick.

Well this is a very interesting book. I will have Devra Davis sign this book when I see her speak in Huntington NY next month. Devra Davis is telling the truth here, the inconvenient truth. Non-ionizing radiation from cell phones is causing lots of problems for us but the novelty of tech is so alluring many don't want to hear or read this truth.

I don't want to finish this.. :-) It's SO incredible!
