First time I saw the title of this book I was interested and anxious to read it. The book discusses about the Vatican II and it's a very relevant topic because there is a lot of extremism of both sides.
I think Fr. Blake Britton did a good job. ( There some a few things I don't agree with him, but I don't think I need to point it out.)
It's very relevant for catholics to read this book. Please, give a chance.
Thank you Netgalley and publisher for free ARC in exchange of honest review. All thoughs are my own.

I grew up in the years after Vatican II and remember how people were full of hope and excited for what it meant.
I read the documents and saw how a lot was forgotten during the year and how conservatives silenced a lot of voices.
This is a well written and thought provoking book that could help a lot of people to discover what Vatican II means and its goals.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine

I have no doubt that this work is very important and I highly enjoyed the insights it provided. It had a great deal of thought-provoking material and got into great detail about a period of church history that I did not live through, but that has shaped the church for years to come. It is probably too academic for a lot of readers, which might make it a tough sell, but it is important reading, I think.

I received an advance copy of, Reclaiming Vatican II, by Fr. Blake Britton. This is a great book on understanding Vatican II. I really learned a lot from this book.
