I bought this book after it was brought to my attention with a high recommendation from Allen Duty. You may recall the title from the review on the Duty’s blog. Well now I’ve completed the book and it’s my turn to give my two cents.
There is no question that at this point in history, the [...]
Remember my two cool friends who started their own t-shirt co.? One of those sweet girls, upon hearing me express my feelings about my current life situation, recommended and later loaned me this book, for which I am thankful indeed.
Twentysomething: Surviving and Thriving in the Real World by Margaret Feinberg.
As I was reading through this [...]
This book is somewhat of a classic, especially among those Americans who love the outdoors. I’d heard about it back in college from some climber friends, and I recently borrowed a copy from a friend who had to read it back in high school.
I could give you a summary of the book, but it cannot [...]
I can say with absolute certainty that the sum of the time it took me to write this review and the time it takes you to read it will be less than the amount of time it took me to find the picture that greeted you when you opened my blog. I wasn’t happy (and [...]
I’ve known for a while that I enjoy learning, but until recently I thought I only enjoyed learning about certain things, things that I found pertinent to my life and the lives of those for whom I care.

The general idea of this book, written by [...]
This is the first of my book reviews in which I’ve attempted to tackle not only a non-Christian book, but a modern day classic in it’s own right. That said, I’m getting in deeper than I have any business getting, so do grant me grace.
The Cather in the Rye was recommended to me by a [...]
If you can remember back all the way to the post before last (thiiiink… or scroll down), I threw out some thoughts about the Emerging Church Movement and told you that I’d give you a little more info soon. Well good news, soon has come. I’m in the delightful process of reading this book shown [...]
That’s right, I finished another book. I actually finished this one a few days ago and am just now getting around to reviewing/ discussing it for you. It’s called “A New Kind of Christian” and it’s by Brian McLaren who is often labeled as the poster child for the Emergent Church Movement.
What is the Emergent [...]
I know it’s hard to believe, but face it kids: I’ve actually read three entire books in the past month. Those of you who know what a poor reader I am are still re-reading the first sentence of this blog in disbelief, and will continue to do so until they get tired and close their [...]
