Present Over Perfect: Leaving Behind Frantic For a Simpler, More Soulful Way of Living by Shauna Niequist

I have one friend back from my college days who I've heard others describe as "very efficient." She is! She gets things done! And she makes it look easy!

I thought of her often as I read this book because sometimes I wonder how happy she is under all of the efficiency, busyness, and running around.

In this book, Niequist shares her journey going from being busy and disconnected to slowing down and being okay with more mess so that she could be more present with herself, life, and her family.

Short essay-like chapters make this book easy to ready slowly so you can savor it.
