I read this book completely. I would say that it is poorly structured jumping from one apparition to another within each chapter and sometimes within the same paragraph. This Author tries to highlight his own opinion and weird ideas at multiple places in the book - unfortunately this risks weakening the important subject matter of the apparitions themselves.

The underlying tone of the book is spiritual warfare and the joy of those who have followed the Virgin Mary back to God... more info
