review 1: This book was such a game changer for me. I hope to be able to put even just a small fraction of the advice into practice, Lord willing. I give it 4 stars simply because like most Orthodox books it is a lot if disjointed tidbits organized by subject. So it doesn't read very cohesively. It can be choppy and jumps around quite a bit. While there were quite a bit of great quotes and amazing bits throughout the book, my favorite were biography and the two sermons at the end because they were more cohesive and readable.
review 2: One of the most, if not the most, spiritually beneficial books I have ever read. Elder Thaddeus approaches the indulgence of sin from a seemingly unique and yet patristic angle, giving advice that is burning with love and exemplary of the ... moremeekness and kindness espoused by Our Lord.The only negative aspect of this book was that it was virtually just a collexion of quotes (though some were quite long), and this sometimes made it hard to read the book straight through. On the other hand, this configuration could in fact be spiritually beneficial, as it forces the reader (and gives them the ability) to stop and consider each individual quote. less
