As the author expected, not everyone would agree with him. While he quoted from mishnah, mentions the oral law, gamara etc -I don't hold this to such regard as he does- he has some points that are worth considering. If you are willing to do a lot of thinking, read the Bible in the context and compare what he says with its truth, you might find it useful to read.
One of the best books for married women that want to live according to God's Word.
The Year of Living Danishly: My Twelve Months Unearthing the Secrets of the World's Happiest Country
This book is really funny and filled with dry British humour, it made me laugh out loud many times. It could be because in some sense, it's similar to Sweden, a country I've lived previously. Being married to a Swede and living in the UK, it was easy to relate to it to a certain degree. Having said that, it appears that Danes are so much more free and in a certain way, they seem to have an attitude of “as long as you're happy, anything is allowed”. That part of their life, I did not enjoy, nor reading about how free they are to express themselves sexually. Therefore, I would not recommend the book as there is almost a whole chapter talking about that. If you really want to read the book, go ahead but it's not worth spending the time unless you are actually listening to the book so you can actually do something else in the meantime. Also, the last few sentences of the book summarise the whole book pretty well.
This is probably one of my favourite novels of all time. It has all the things that I enjoy: multi-culture, prayer, optimism, challenges and it's an easy read. The perfect book to read before going to bed.
