No book report on The Shack

Okay, I cannot finish up The Shack. I'm trying, but it's not looking so good. I can't believe I can't finish it. It's not because I don't "believe" it or whatever. It is just slowing down too much. I think I need to stick to my "no brainer" reading.

Did I tell you mom read this book? I wonder what she thought. I don't understand what is really wrong with this book especially since it is fiction. So it is just because it is too slow? I have such a hard time reading any book. I have to read pages over and over because I can't remember what I read. The only book that ever kept my interest was A Boy Called It (very sad, biography). I also read the sequels. I actually read that book in one day and bought it for Blake to read, but it remains unopened.

Yeah, you said mom read the book. I don't find anything wrong with the book per se, it's just not keeping my attention.

I haven't read A Boy called It. I think mom has read that.

Hi girls! Okay, here is what I found wrong with the book (you are right that it is fiction...but it still bothers me)
He mentions in the book that all will go to heaven, no matter what religion they believe...I don't agree with that (the only way to heaven is through Christ)
He also mentions that Christ forgives, but never forgets...I don't agree with that either.
Actually to write out all that I don't agree with would take too long! HA! I do have book club on Thursday...I will let you know!

Rebecca-
I am going to email Starbucks! Thanks for the idea! :)

ok.. are yhou talking about the book "the shack"? I guess the only part I liked was the description of what heaven might be like. There were some parts I did not like at all. Very upsetting. But it was something to think about. Yes, slow too.
I did read the book.. a Boy call It and in the end how he was able to forgive his mother.
