Too religious
I couldn't get through the content because they made references to Bible verses every few lines. I'm not opposed to Bible verses, but not when it upsets the flow of the novel.

Too religious
The sheer volume of scripture and references to The Bible made me fantasize about inventing an app that could go through the book and delete all bible references. I imagine the book would be 1/3 the size after deleting scripture passages. It was judgmental and non-inclusive in some parts, even abit victim-blamey (as most fundamentally Christian-based things are) I can handle religious references but man was this book full on bible immersion school. The information on boundaries was good but if you’re not steeped in Christianity you’re probably better off buying another of the plethora of good boundary books out there.

bible verse every 20 seconds!
I made it halfway through the second chapter... and it really annoys me to hear about the bible every few seconds (or every minute max). its okay to talk about the bible or the influence of Catholicism once or twice in the book, but a thousand times really gets in the way. The book is about bible interpretation more than it is about boundaries. It says in the chapter 1 that the goal of the author is to show us the "biblical" boundaries. So be it, I wish the description would have said so and I would have stayed away.

I could not focus as seemingly every other sentence was about the Bible.
Unless you are very religious this book is not for you.

A necessary lesson
This was a good book on why boundaries are essential to any success in life. I liked the specific examples and a description of a person with no boundaries vs one with well defined boundaries.
We all are like a city without walls waiting to be invaded when boundaries are missing.
Personally, I was a child in a verbally abusive home where drug abuse was also present. There were fights and screams for which I had zero context. The lack of clear boundaries had a profound impact on me. Only now, in my 30s am I coming to grips with the damage done and that I will need to work on myself a lot to experience better relationships. Setting boundaries is very diff but so vital!

Bible Thumper BIG TIME . . . OMG Revelation 13:1-1
This book suckers you in then shoves the bible down your throat in every second paragraph. Literally quotes the bible verse and paragraph over and over AND OVER. It's a bible study more than anything else. I want my $$ back. I simply could not force myself to read another paragraph of "Revelation 13:1-18" or Matthew 6:31–34 . Unless you're a religious freak this book is not for you.
Q. How do you get your money back on Audio books ? This title is a complete misnomer and should be transparent based on the constant bible quotes in every paragraph. It was kinda funny at first then it just disrupted the flow of the book. Too be honest it was WIERD lol
