Summary: LET ME HEAR A HEAVENLY AMEN!
Review: A gift from heaven? The hell with it! a real-life nun named Karol Jackowski somehow convinced Hyperion that she had a book inside her, and Holy Hypocrite! it worked. This paperback is filled with such earth-shattering advice such as "if it looks like fun and doesn't break The 10 Commandments, do it" and "write something at the end of every day." OK, Sis. I am taking your advice. My words at the end of this day: Thou Shall Not Read such a miraculous waste of ink and paper. Amen!

Summary: What's the book about?
Review: In its original form, this book was a lecture given in the Spring of 1987 at Saint Mary's College, Notre Dame, Indiana. As part of a student-planned program called "The Last Lecture Series," faculty and administrators were invited to prepare a lecture pretending it was the last one given before we died -- our parting words. Because lecturing has never been a burning interest of mine, I couldn't imagine wanting to give one right before I died. What I could imagine easily though, was leaving behind a list of all the things I was glad I did before I died, and they might think about doing before they die. The list turned into the lecture, which felt like the outline for a book, the end result of which is Ten Fun Things to do Before You Die, written by nun other than me.

Summary: A little book packed with lots of wisdom
Review: Sister Karol's book is one of my all time favourites and something I can return to time and time again for inspiration. It isn't a heavy, dry read in the least, something one might perhaps expect of a Catholic nun. She is fun, witty and occasionally somewhat irreverent (in the best possible way). Infact, I think I'd like to invite her to my next party...:)
