My 22 year old daughter has expressed interest in reading The Bible. I was raised Catholic (school and all) I absolutely believe God Wins but I haven't practiced Catholicism in a long time, with the exeption of a daily phrase on The Bible app first thing every morning. My question is, is there a recommendation on what Bible she should read that she won't just get overwhelmed and not finish it. My first one was The Children's Bible as a kid. I'm not sure one of my traditional Bibles would keep her interested.

Regardless of the choice of Bible, I suggest The Bible Project playlists that walk through every book of the Bible. This is high quality content that gives overviews of books and explanations with visual drawings that make it easy to follow and understand. It’s like having a professional tour guide for the Bible.
As for Bible translation, for someone starting out, it depends on the person. Based on your post, I suggest the New Living Translation (NLT) because it is designed more for fluid reading.
