I am quite pleased with this Bible. The font is fantastic! And even though the cover is a faux leather, it is constructed well and is very attractive. I am using this Bible as a straight reading option (not for study or marking). It reads smoothly (altho the brackets sometimes trip up my eyes, but I'll get used to those I'm sure). As for the translation, I wish the word "grace" was not replaced as it is. Words like "goodness," "kindness," etc. do not capture the full meaning of grace, and this takes away from the depth of understanding of one's being saved by God's grace alone. Other than that, I find this translation more satisfying than the New Living Translation.
