Deeper Water
For some reason I own this book so I figured I should probably read it. I appreciate a good, clean legal thriller, but this was just... not real enjoyable.
The Future of Feeling
In summation: it's a super relevant, important, and interesting premise that derailed pretty quickly and explosively into an unhelpful, sketchy, politically charged dissertation with no real solutions.
The Story of Arthur Truluv
I read ‘A Man Called Ove’ and I liked that better. This one lacked some plausibility- especially in terms of the teenager.
The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness
He makes a good point that virtually every other religion says performance leads to the declaration of your salvation or your 'justification' but Christianity says- no, performance doesn't lead to a favorable verdict in the courtroom of goodness; in fact, we aren't even in the courtroom.
The Crooked Street
“Sometimes the road to justice is a crooked street.”
The Imperfect Disciple
If you've ever been stuck in the endless cycle of doing yet feeling it's never enough, or not doing and feeling like a failure, this book is for you.
To Hell with the Hustle
"We are chasing freedom yet becoming slaves." "What if the goal isn't to hustle but to be faithful?"
Thief River Falls
This would make a great movie! It was a captivating read and I got through it fast. It pulls you in from the first page to the very last. What I love…
The Patron Saint of Pregnant Girls
I read 25% and I couldn’t finish this book... the premise was so interesting and I was excited to read it but man, I just couldn’t…
Night Road
This is a hard book for me to review. I read it and then read some other reviews and see that people either loved it or dismissed it. And I can see both sides.
For the Love of God, Volume II
There are a lot of passages in the Bible that are confusing or just kind of boring and it’s easy to just read it and forget about it and be done with it, but with Carson’s commentary, he offers…
The Companions
If the author’s main point in writing this story was to explore the perspectives of how people lived in this dystopian world over a long period of time, how their lives were affected, and how relationships worked- then don’t present it as…
Woman on the Edge
I read this book in 2 days if that tells you anything. After just one page I was hooked. It was very reminiscent of…
Ends of the Earth
I know books about a 'Bug Man' don't really sound that interesting, and the first couple in the series don't seem very appealing in title or cover, but this series is a really good read! It's basically like CSI or…
The Silent Patient
If you haven't read this book yet, stop reading this and other reviews right now. Go read the book first. Don't let others taint your experience or let all the hype blur your opinion.
Run Away
‘Run Away’ explores a magnified version of all parents’ fears- a wayward child caught up in drugs and crime. How far would we go to save and protect our children? This book will…
a(Typical) Woman
"So be encouraged and truly liberated, all you atypical women. God doesn’t ask you to be typical. He calls you to be his.”
The Christian Atheist
Have you ever questioned if God loves you, cares about you, or fights for you? Have you ever resented that evil people seem victorious and good people are sick, robbed, oppressed, killed? Are you jaded by the ways the church has failed you? Congratulations, you're a Christian Atheist. Just like me.
Lone Wolf in Jerusalem
I guess I was pretty bored with it. It had a lot of potential- Jersualem post-WWII, espionage, Jack Reacher 'I-only-work-alone-to-get-my-vengeance' assassin vibe, underground rebel organizations, side love story. A lot of great elements that just didn't…
The Last Letter from Your Lover
Annoyed. My idea of a good romance novel is not one that champions infidelity. This book follows two women- one in the…
