This is a thread created for anyone and everyone to be a critic if they wish to be so. Personally I enjoyed the book so much that I have actually read it twice in one week and then again yesterday. I suggest that everyone read this novel or have it read to them word for word by someone.

<quoted text>I enjoyed this book a few years ago. Very disturbing and thought provoking, but very comforting also. Have wondered why this hasnt been made into a movie for the non-readers, do you think to religious?

A book I would suggest is Still Alice.

<quoted text>loved this book also,but would have to quit reading and walk away. Maybe to close to home, I am enjoying being a lady of a certain age (lol). But the fact that her memory went so quick was startling.

A multitude of emotions came upon myself throughout this brilliantly written novel. It is certainly enlightening to say the least. I believe the disturbance of the novel involving the murder of a innocent young child was captivating due to the fathers own hatred towards his own father.
Forgiveness is extremely hard to allow yet it must be given. It does not subtract a persons anger from existence if one is forgiven. In my opinion it's like the Lord's word when the in the Bible we are told to love everyone but we are not commanded to have to like who we love.
I can't wait until a movie is made concerning THE SHACK and I truly want to see just whom will play each character in the novel on the big screen.

The Holy Bible is my all time favorite book. It is a love story, it's full of actions of battles, entirely full of instructions concerning the right life to live, every word is ordained by God, there are actually a thousand reasons why it is my favorite book. I know it is the most popular book ever sold and I know it is my favorite book as well.

I agree William, but Im also interested in other books also!

<quoted text> I too as well. It very difficult to recommend a good book to someone when their interests vary as do personalities but I located and read a book titled [The Rock] which was based on the the inmates of Alcatraz and found it to be a very enlightening novel concerning criminals of the 30's up to it's closing day which is now a museum. It contains the names of highly recognized criminals like John Delinger, Frank Morris, Al Capone which actually went stir crazy due to syphillis before he died and, there was the Birdman of Alcatraz whom never had a bird during his time at Alcatraz. It is an interesting book to say the least for anyone that may be interested in criminal behavior readings and the profiles of prisoners and the conditions of which that were made daily to accept or pay dearly for not doing so. It was written over 30 years ago and it is now in paperback only copies. Hardback issues are very rare to find concerning this particular book.

I agree about different personalities. That's why I asked for suggestions of other reading material. Thanks for the suggestion of the The Rock, I love reading about historic events and people. Will try to find it.
