Love at Last Sight by Kerry & Chris Shook- Book Review

1 comments
 

I FINALLY finished Love at Last Sight  subtitled 30 days to grow and deepen your closest relationships by Kerry & Chris Shook. When I saw that this book was on the list for review I got a bit excited. I've been at a point in my personal life where I felt like this book could do me some good and I was looking to be enlightened some. When I received the book, I sat down immediately to read it and was ready to put it down after the first 5 or so pages.
   It's a cool book because you go through this 30 day "program" where you even have daily homework.  I think that's why I was so excited about it, I like homework:)

However, this book didn't teach me anything I didn't already know and there was nothing refreshing about it for me personally. I do however, know that others will more than likely benefit from this book.

THE ONE THING THIS BOOK DID DO FOR ME:

It reminded me that we really must love others as though we may not see them again tomorrow. 

I work hard to live my life that way already and I guess that's why this book was hard to get through for me. For someone who does not know how to live this way, this book will be great for them. it will enlighten them and it will most likely change their lives and relationships.

It's a good read. I like the perspective that it's written from and I like that you kind of feel like you're having a conversation with the authors. If you have the time and could use some advice on how to love your loved ones better, I recommend reading it.

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.
