Get Shorter Christian Prayer and start praying Compline (Night Prayer) -- there's even a book with just Night Prayer in it. Once you get into the habit, add another hour, such as Morning or Evening Prayer. When you get comfortable with this, you may want to get Christian Prayer, which has more page flipping involved.
Or you could pray The Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It's very simple and lovely. All the hours are the same for each day. There is a slight variation during Advent and Christmas.
I've done both the LOTR and LOBVM. Currently I pray LOBVM's Matins/Lauds every morning and Vespers most evenings. I used to pray Compline, but I haven't done so in a while.
It takes about 15-20 minutes to say the LOBVM Matins/Lauds and about 10-15 mins for Vespers.
I second the LOTH. If it looks overwhelming, try out the Little Office of The Virgin Mary first.
>Baronius Press are the best examples of the traditional office
Is this the one I should get then? I'm in Europe, buying physical copies from the U.S. would be something I'd rather avoid, unless there were no other options.
