Who I would recommend this to: Catholics who can take a joke at the religions' expense. It really is a solid explanation of how someone becomes a saint. Most interest tidbits to me are how the process has been solidified and formed over time. One limitation of the book is breath vs depth; maybe less saints used as examples, but a better explanation about the saint.

Genuinely so funny. As someone married to a Catholic, but raised Protestant, I have some background knowledge but am also in the dark about a lot of things. I felt like I learned a lot while laughing, and kept poking my husband to tell him fun facts. I laughed out loud at multiple points, which I rarely do in real life. I highly recommend this book as the perfect blend of history and comedy.
