Hello all!

Just a quick question. If anyone of you all have purchased a daily prayer book or a book with daily readings that you felt to be worthwhile could you please let me know! I travel quite a bit and there are just so many options for prayer and daily reading books that I would like some insight. Thanks!
 
My favorite is My Daily Psalm Book: amazon.com/Daily-Psalm-Book-Joseph-Frey/dp/B000E22JIK. I bought a copy from a Catholic bookstore here. The psalms are arranged according to the order of the pre-Vatican II Divine Office psalmody. It also includes a list of suggested psalms to pray for various different purposes.

My grandma gave me a copy of Catholic Book of Prayers: amazon.com/Catholic-Book-Prayers-Arranged-Everyday/dp/0899429106/ref=sr_1_12?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1357472659&sr=1-12&keywords=daily+catholic+prayer+book. It’s also very nice.
 
The Daily Roman Missal has an excellent prayers and devotions section. The Missal may be too big to lug around, except to Mass.

If you have an iPhone or iPod touch, download the Laudate app which has prayers for every occasion.

Hi there. For a daily meditation book that will be easy to travel with you, I heartily recommend In Conversation With God. It is a seven-volume softcover set with ribbon markers. The meditations are based on daily Mass readings of the Novus Ordo. The meditations are so beautiful and easily applicable to one’s daily life. They are long but are sectioned, so you could read one section in the morning and the rest later in the day. You’ll love it!😃
