Monika reviewed The Book of Forgiving by Desmond Tutu
Review of 'The Book of Forgiving' on 'Storygraph'
4 stars
I picked this up to read during Lent along with the folks at Cafeteria Christian, but I'm not good at sticking to a reading schedule, so I finished it way ahead of time. I was frustrated by this book at first because it felt like it was barely scratching the surface. I wanted more details, more explanation, and just wasn't getting it. I'm so glad I stuck with it, though! Each chapter revealed another layer, and another, and yet another. The same stories circled back, but with a deeper understanding of the forgiveness process as the book moved on. I got a lot out of this book, and I'm sure I'll be rereading it and referencing it in the future.
