Letters to My Daughters: The Art of Being a Wife by Barbara Rainey

5.0

What I Liked
This book is beautiful! It's aesthetically and lyrically pleasing. Art covers almost every page through water color, paintings, calligraphy, and color. Rainey's words are also beautiful and poetic. I was captivated by her words and often encouraged. She paints marriage realistically but beautifully. It's evident she cherishes the union of marriage but is aware that it's difficult, and I found myself underlining page after page.

What I Didn't Like
Theologically, Rainey is a little more Calvinist than I am, and it shows in some of her examples. She also tends towards the conservative side. However, this is totally personal doctrine and didn't at all dissuade me from gaining from her wisdom and the beauty of her writing.
