The Story of a Soul: The Autobiography of St. Therese of Lisieux by Thérèse de Lisieux

4.0

I really admire St. Theresa's "Little Way" approach to faith and spirituality. I my own words, the "Little Way" advocates that being a good or holy person doesn't require grand acts, but being thoughtful and giving in everyday interactions and decisions. The last two chapters really outline this spiritual approach and I enjoyed them very much. The earlier chapters are her life story before she entered into the convent are written to her sister (who is also in the same convent & religious order) and I found those hard to relate to because her upbringing was so religious and her spirituality and attraction to religion began at a very early age.
