Short review: I both thought this was very good and a bit cliche. Donald Miller has a way of saying things that are really fairly simple, but in profound ways. But also saying simple things that I would think should not need to be said (but probably do.)

The real issue of the book is that we often hide from ourselves and others and in hiding we hinder real intimacy. I have a problem with this and was inspired by it. But I was also a bit annoyed a parts too. Not really sure what annoyed me except the fact that I felt like some of this should have been learned already. I have read all of his previous books, so when you have a career of sharing what you have learned about yourself, at some point it seems that some of that learning needs to take hold a little better.
