Flipping through the table of contents of Only Nuns Change Habits Overnight, and seeing chapter titles like, What if the Hokey Pokey Really is What its all About and Humor Required, Sanity Optional, you can tell that it is not going to be your average self-help book. Author, Karen Scalf Linaman, provides multiple hilarious anecdotes about her attempts and successes in changing her life for the better. While I don’t normally enjoy self-help books, Linaman’s comical writing style left me wanting to read more and more. Most chapters start out with a story from Linaman’s life and she refers back to it for most of that chapter while revealing some of her “52 Ways to Master the Art of Personal Change.” Then, at the end of each chapter, she includes questions and bible verses to reflect on either in a group or on your own. In my opinion, Linaman provides everything you need to make a change for the better in your life. You just need to use the motivational tools in the book to accomplish the change in your life. Also, if you find that you’ve enjoyed Only Nuns Change Habit Overnight, Linaman has written several other books that you could look for including, I’m Not Suffering from Insanity…I’m Enjoying Every Minute of It and Due to Rising Energy Costs, the Light at the End of the Tunnel Has Been Turned Off.
