I'm a big, big Flannery fan, and have read a bio of her before, but was excited to read through this one since it was more focused on her spiritual life. I didn't find that I learned anything new about her, though, so it fell a little flat simply because I have already read so much about her. If you're looking for a place to start to learn about her, this really is a great and thorough book about her life, faith, and writing!
