Choosing Joy really surprised me. I didn’t know what to expect reading a book about joy. It was conversational and easy to read. It kept me interested the whole way through with entertaining stories and comments that literally had me “laughing out loud”. Lord had a down to earth approach, he didn’t claim to be

This is one of those books I believe every woman has to read! What I love about this book, is that it questions the very foundations of “feminism” and really shines a light on how secular feminists are doing the very opposite of what feminism claims to do, being pro-women.

When I first started reading this book all I could say was ‘what a man!’ Knowing very little about the life of Karol Wojtyla, I was shocked and moved by the incredibly hard life he led from such a young age. Through all his trials his faith only grew deeper. I was struck by the

Wow! What a powerful and inspiring book. I could not recommend this book more highly to all women. Reaffirming that we as women are made for more, it uncovers the truth of our identity, dignity and “feminine genius”. This book as a great way of breaking through the lies of popular culture and presenting the
