Fascinating book on the beauty of devotion to Mary. St Louis de Montfort explains the scriptural evidence for the devotion, along with the teachings of Saints and Popes who have practised this devotion.
33 day consecration at the end.

On April 8, 2018, I was formally received into the Catholic Church. It has been over a year since then and while I am still learning and growing, I have found so much spiritual fulfillment in Jesus and His Church that I am upset that I didn't do this years ago.

This book, which focuses on consecrating ourselves to Jesus through the Blessed Virgin Mary, is one of those books that changed my spirituality. Saint Louis de Montfort, one of the saints most devoted to Mary, opened my eyes to her in ways that I have never thought possible. If, like me, you are Catholic and are thinking of doing a total consecration, there are different routes you can take (such as 33 Days to Morning Glory) but this is the original method and I highly highly recommend it.

Though I am "finished" with this book, it is not a book you just read and put away. It is meant to be revisited yearly, and the second half of the book is all the practical stuff you do for this method. So I might be reading this again next year. We will see.
