I think if I was older I may have gotten more out of this book (I'm 25). I started reading this book about 6 months ago as part of a Lenten journey. I have drifted away from the Church and wanted to help grow closer in my faith, whatever form it ends up taking. Since I haven't gone through a lot of experiences similar to Monk, I couldn't relate as well. I also have to say I rarely read non-fiction and that is probably why I put it down for four months before I picked it back up to finish. Overall, I think it's a good story about personal-growth that some women will be better able to relate than others.
