Story of a Soul: The Autobiography of St. Therese of Lisieux by Thérèse de Lisieux
1.0
I am not religious myself. I have gotten this book by my religious grand-aunt maybe some ten years ago, as she was possibly trying to sway my by a saint with whom I share my name.
I never really cared, but nowadays, I try to get through the piles of cook I've collected in many years, so I thought, I might finally read this.
Well, I don't get it. I read almost through half of the book and it really was a suffering (could it have been the intention?). I found her annoying and her writing style didn't make it better. I also don't understand what exactly has she done to become a saint. Or what have even her parents done?
I assume there are plenty more interesting saints to read about, even for non-religious people, but this doesn't seem to be the right one.
