I also have the St. Andrew Daily Missal. Here's why I like this missal better:

1. I like how the English translation is on the right page only - it allows for bigger print because you don't have the English and the Latin on the same page.

2. I think the instructions (which are in the right margin) are more comprehensive.

3. It's thinner. The St. Andrew is so thick it sometime hard to work with.

The only negative of this missal is that the pages are so thin, you have to be more careful than usual when turning them.

But did you notice, the pages are extremely strong? At mass this morning I was in awe, I was half as trepidous as when I first commenced using it - and it bore the brunt of use amazingly well!

The paper actually came from France, made by a company that used to make the cigarette paper for fine rolling in the 1940s...rather fascinating, that.

The St. Andrew Daily Missal has a very helpful explanation before each new liturgical season, going into detail about that specific season.
Does the Roman Catholic Daily missal have this as well?
