My wife Denise is on her way to sainthood and is eminently qualified to review Jason Boyett’s new book.
Before I could begin this essay, I had to pull up my thesaurus and check for alternatives to the word “delightful,†because I could very easily overwork that adjective in a book review of Jason Boyett’s Pocket Guide to Sainthood.
The Pocket Guide to Sainthood is just that. At 219 pages and dimensions of 5″ x 7″ x 5/8″, this little book just might fit into a large pocket. Definitely a purse or backpack. But wait–I’m beginning to sound just a bit like Boyett.
Subtitled “A Field Manual for the Super-Virtuous Life,†the Pocket Guide is a fast-paced, easy-to-read volume chock full of general information, biographical summaries, interesting tidbits and Boyett’s quirky sense of humor on every page.
