Handy-dandy book
This is a great Bible to have. It's small enough to be very portable to anywhere. The leather cover is very soft yet sturdy. The only drawbacks: small print may be hard to read for some, thin pages require appropriate handing. But then as a compact Bible, it's to be expected. Otherwise, I really like this printing.

Excellent bring-everywhere Bible
I have been experimenting with various means to use the internet as my "always-with-me" Bible using sites like Biblegateway.com on my Laptop and eBible.com on my iPhone. But difficulty in ensuring always-on internet connectivity, and needing the ability for quick look-up even under slow network conditions has shown me that having a real physical paper bible on-hand is invaluable. This slimline version of the NIV has been great to tuck into my work bag or my travel bag to keep the Word of God with me without any noticeable penalty in weight or bulk. I highly recommend it.

One added plus I did not expect - the Bible includes a concordance at the end which is useful for quick lookups and basic study.

The obvious downside is teeny, tiny text. If you are already thinking about getting a large print version of the Bible, don't bother picking this one up. You're better off with the thinline Study Bible which has slightly larger type (but is significantly thicker).

great for purpose purchased
I purchased this Bible for a person in jail. I purchased it from Amazon because people in jail cannot receive something mailed directly from a home address so I could not go to the store and purchase one and send it to them. To be received in jail it must come from a place like Amazon or a publisher. It must be soft back and not hardback and this one fit that criteria. Once received it was just what they wanted. It has sdudy helps for personal Bible study as well as compact enough for a small cell environment. I would encourage others to find an inmate and mail them a Bible.
