Author: Melanie Shankle
One-sentence summary: Melanie talks about having a small, ordinary life and how that can turn out to be the biggest, fullest life.
B.A.D. Girls Book Rating: 8
Our favorite thing about it: It was so funny and rang so true for us.
Our least favorite thing about it: That it wasn’t longer?
Main Topics of Discussion: childhood, religion, aging, parenting
Our favorite quote: “I’ll take all of the gluten the rest of the world has given up.”
Notes: This was such a fun book to read and discuss on our cruise. It was SO funny and perfectly applicable to our lives right now. We loved the message of daily acts of faithfulness instead of striving for something “great.” Small deeds do not equal a small life. Or if they do, that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
Memorable Meeting Moments: This book was a group pick because we read it for our cruise! We had our meeting in Rachel and Christina’s stateroom on the last night of the cruise in our pajamas.
What We Ate: We didn’t eat specifically at the meeting this time, but we sure did eat a lot of amazing things on the cruise!
