Got a nice customer review on Amazon for Coming Out Atheist: How To Do It, How to Help Each Other Do It, And Why! Five stars out of five. (In fact, the book now has six customer reviews — and they’re all five stars out of five!) Here’s what Peter Veitch had to say:
Great collection of tips and stories
I have been out as an atheist for four years, I still found stuff here interesting and useful. I would especially recommend this to anyone considering telling friends , family and /or others . For those already out as a non believer, there are many tips ( plus a wonderful resource section at the end ) that you might be able to share. five stars. not sure about recommending to believers unless they want to understand non believers a bit more (?). ie this is not selling atheism, rather it concentrates on the issue of coming out , and does a Great ( Greta anagram ! ) job at this.
Thanks, Peter! And if any of you have read Coming Out Atheist, it’d be awesome if you’d post a review.

Just got the book on Kindle this weekend, and I’m enjoying it so far! (Not that I was surprised). What did surprise me was getting a Facebook message from a distant relation, a second cousin by marriage whom I’ve never met, who was reading your book and saw my name and story and recognized me. He told me that finding this connection and reading my story, among the many others, has been very helpful to him as he tries to figure out how to come out of the atheist closet. Hopefully he’ll discover if I can survive our family as an atheist, so can he.
I don’t comment very often, but your blog was the first atheism/social justice/etc blog I found when I started looking, and I always love to read your work. I wanted you to have this story about how you are helping at least one reader, because anyone who does all the great things you do deserves some positive reinforcement.
