The Shack-Review

[Booklover83]

I finished this book the same day I started it. 8/21/2011.

I found it to be a good book because it reads like a conversation between the main character and God, Jesus and the Holy spirit. As you read through the book, you find that one of the lessons that comes through clearly is that those in power truly did not know what God is about. Throughout the book the main character tries to deal with something awful that happens to his child. He gets angry and blames God for all of the problems that this situation creates. It is a good book for people to sit down and see what a literal conversation with God may be like if one ever had a chance to hear Jesus, God and the Holy Spirit answer back like we talk as humans. The biggest lesson I got from this book is that God is reachable even as a human being and no matter how you get to God, He is still there.

That sounds really good! I think my mum might have told me about this book a short while ago. I think I'll have to put on my TBR. Thanks for the review

My fellow christian best friend had recommended this one to me and she absolutely loved it. But, I found it hard to get through and what happened to the daughter extremely disturbing. It was, however, an interesting perspective of the Trilogy - God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Would I recommend it? Not necessarily, but I would suggest people curious to read it for themselves.

I would have to agree with the original review. I found this to be an amazing book. It only took me a day or two to get through it. I love the way that it was written, and for some reason it really hit home when I was reading it. Very powerful message.

I meant to say "Trinity" not Trilogy

I absolutely love this book. I finished it within a day or two. The way that it is written and the subject were phenomenal. Such an amazing book. this is one that I plan on reading again and again. I even bought a copy for my grandma.
