Present over Perfect

Present over Perfect by Shauna Niequist, who also wrote Bread and Wine feels like an important read, about how to make decisions that give you the life you really want to and need to be living.  

I read Bread and Wine, about feasting and fasting, and cooking for the life you’re living.  I still cook some of the recipes in that book.  And I think it makes a fantastic book club read.

So when this book came around, I was excited to read another book by Shauna.  And it did not disappoint.

This book makes you think about which parts of your life are important to you, and which parts you perhaps need to decline.  Where can you rework things to live the life you are meant to live.  It is a Christian book, but I would hazard that anyone would be able to learn something from this one.  Especially if you feel like you’re running on an endless treadmill.  You can take some control and make space for the things that are really important to you.
