The Shack by William P. Young

My review

rating: 3 of 5 stars


One of the blurbs on the cover of this book says something along the lines of "this book may be The Pilgrim's Progress for our generation".

I think not.

Usually I'm not interested in reading books the Christian world is in uproar about, they are bound to be a disappointment. I plowed through the book because a friend asked my opinion.

So, my opinion is that it was an okay read, but I wouldn't shove it into someone's hands with a "you must read this!" enthusiasm.

The conversations between Mack and God are basically little bits of sermons; similar to many earnest sermons I've heard over the years. Maybe it was a good thing to be reminded of some things I have forgotten to think about.
