Probably my deepest regret in life is that I wasted my childhood and young adulthood on my extremely religious upbringing, including precociously prolific study of scripture and consuming vapid religious novels (see: "Left Behind" series) and films. Why would a rueful atheism-adjacent exvangelical bother airing such personal dirty laundry? Because although The Screwtape Letters was very much part of that evangelical regimen, it's one of an extremely scant few religion-oriented books that I have no regrets in having read. Its commendably clever and wry composition transcends spiritualism to the extent that it has influenced my consumption of literature throughout the 30 years since I first read it. As much as I disagree with its author's premises, I recommend reading it, especially if you enjoy satire and don't mind bringing a critical eye to your book reading chair. Off the top of my head, I can't think of a single more worthwhile specimen of intentional fiction among the many religious works I read in my youth. Even if you found The Chronicles of Narnia childish and dull, give this short work a try.
tl;dr: would recommend, regardless of your spiritual persuasion

My dear late mother tried to get me to read this book for many years and I never did! I think it time to see what the dark side is about and how I will be able to do it again soon enough for my children!

Thank you very much for that as it seems that we are all in camps at times. My regret is I wasted many years when young and even well into what should have been an adulthood with a terribly nihilistic and hedonistic attitude and kind of underlying hate or disgust for humanity and the world in general.

I am still paying a price for that and am still a mess but coming from that perspective I to found this one of the best books I have ever read. He must doing something right if he has the both loving the book. Even for the anti or irreligious it can be a great book. He definitely understands human nature and it is a great and classic read.
