    Following the New York Times Bestseller, One Thousand Gifts - a guide to giving thanks and finding joy in all aspects of life - Ann Voskamp returns with this companion One Thousand Gifts Devotional. Let this book be your day-by-day guide to finding real joy and experience grace in the midst of deadlines, debt, drama, and all your daily duties.

      This book of sixty short 'devotional' readings about thankfulness is interesting, with some insights into the author’s life. She notes ways of dealing with her children, finding God in nature, and different ways of experiencing grace in her life. Much of it is inspiring, and I’m glad I read it - just one or two sections per day. Unfortunately the style of writing is, in places, bizarre. Sometimes the short sentences and detailed description are almost poetic, but at others, the word choices jarred badly. The author doesn’t seem to know how to use adverbs, and phrases such as ‘[she] pours her watering can careful…’ made me cringe, destroying the moment. Still, the underlying ideas and some of the anecdotes are moving and sometimes thought-provoking, and overall I liked the book very much. I would recommend this to anyone wanting something a bit different, if they can move beyond the bad grammar, although it probably wouldn’t be of any interest to anyone without faith in God.
