I was surprised by how much I liked this book, and by how much I identified with the Rebecca, the main character. She's a single mom who doesn't hate her ex-husband, and she works as a graphic designer (which she remarks often feels like playing, as does working as a librarian for me).
I loved Michael Christopher, who was painted just as I would hope an ec-monk would be.
I loved Mary Martha, and the weight on MC's mind about the dilemma between Mary and Martha, and action and prayer.
The whole book was exactly my cup of tea, and gives me hope that maybe someday I *will* end up in a relationship. And I haven't thought that in a long time.
