I have to agree. I tried to read that book after it was recommended here on a different occasion and I couldn't get past chapter two. Less about prayer (as I remember it), it was more a personal account of an atheist experimenting by forcing herself to do something she doesn't really believe in to see what would happen. I never went through an atheist phase, and that likely contributes to why I found it so profoundly uninteresting. If you're a devout person, who has felt the presence of the gods and is looking for prayer tips, well I already said I didn't finish the book so I could be wrong, but it was hard to imagine it had anything to teach me that I couldn't find elsewhere, without having to sift through the atheist introspection.
