Book Reviews of The Shack

Book Review: "How to Believe in God" Manual
Summary: 3 Stars

I was given the book by one of my colleagues. I have to say that I got caught in it that same minute I started reading it. Very interesting story....very good incredibly easy to read.......until the moment when everything turned into "How to believe in God" manual (according to my beliefs of course). I am still "trying" to finish the book, it is very difficult to read and follow the story as it doesn't make sense anymore, but I will finish it. As much as I respect all the religions and people's choice to follow them to me everything is much bigger and complicated than that. So I guess religious people and people who do believe in God in more or less traditional way will truly appreciate this book. To me a lot of ideas in this book are utopia (even though they can be kind and loving). I like the fact though that the author is mocking religious stereotypes that are so deeply set in the minds of our society.

If you are open minded I would suggest to read the book.....at least it is interesting to know that somebody is trying to break religious stereotypes.
