If you are looking to do a Marian consecration, I would recommend that you go with the original by Saint Louis de Montfort. The readings are deep. The prayers are perfect. Overall, exactly what I would seek for a running retreat.
I wouldn't recommend this is a Marian consecration. It was written for those that don't have time to do the prayers of the original. I would say that if you truly feel led to do one, figure out how to get the prayers in. I would not consider in any way this book to be sufficient which is really disappointing as I adore his Consoling the Heart of Jesus.
Having said that though, I think this would appropriate for further contemplation for the days. In other words, I would recommend using both books.
