It's a good reading, but the writer and publisher should revise and edit the book. It is a 2018-edition, so I hope the work's been all done by now. I will list a few points that need to be revised and edited: (2018-Kindle Ed. location 26) ...Otto had m ...more |

A great intro. Unfortunately that is the only great part of the book. This 2017-Kindle Edition is a mess save the introduction. For example, take a look at "Chapter One: Love and War." The chapter begins with the man's quote introduced as follows: “My ...more |

“All I ask is one thing, and I’m asking this particularly of young people: please don’t be cynical. I hate cynicism, for the record, it’s my least favorite quality and it doesn’t lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you’re kind, amazing things will happen.”

“It seems to me that if God felt it best to delay marriage into the latter part of your twenties, He would also see fit to delay the hormonal urge to want to have sex.
