Here are a couple of reviews from Amazon
“I grew up Catholic, but didn’t know that there were multiple devotions to saying the rosary. And, as an adult and lapsed Catholic I was a bit fuzzy on the basics as well. This book does a soulful job of detailing the steps and introducing the special devotions of each of the mysteries. The pen and inks are a beautiful accompaniment to the text. A very nice gift book for anyone who wants to reaquaint themselves with the devotion of the rosary.”
Mary has written nine books; you can see the collection HERE.
My Thoughts
The book’s layout flows nicely and leads smoothly into the next topic.
Each Prayer shares the history of the Rosary prayers and references the Scripture where the prayer originated. Each prayer has an illustration of the Rosary, and the bead to start the prayer is circled.
The book is informative, not technical, and written with a gentle heart.
The Rosary is written for everyone, and her writing is easy to understand. I’ve learned so much. The Rosary Prayer By Prayer is a must-read for all Catholics or those who are curious. It’s a book for your bookshelves to reference for years to come.

Melinda, your review is just as heartfelt and beautifully written as Mary’s book sounds. I love how you not only highlighted the depth and accessibility of The Rosary Prayer by Prayer but also shared how Mary has personally impacted your life. That personal touch makes this recommendation even more meaningful.

I didn’t think the review was that good. I haven’t been active in the Catholic church in so long, I wasn’t sure I conveyed the importance of the book. Have a great day.
