kind of silly March 12, 2010 Dena L. Williams (Denver, CO, US) poorly written. weak story. bad theology. no answers to the question of suffering. nothing radical. over simplification.
Popularity doesn't necessarily equal quality. March 11, 2010 VeniceRose (Oregon) I disliked the book from the start but it was assigned by my book club, so I tried to get through it. However, after "the father, son, and holy ghost" showed up in the shack, I threw the book down. Not because it offended me for theological reasons (After all, I liked the TV series "Joan of Arcadia," in which God showed up in several surprising desguises) but because the scene, like all those before it, bored me to tears.
The writing is juvenile, and the author reaches for the most obvious image, phrase, and dialogue. With so many well-written books with spiritual themes out there, why would anyone waste his time reading dreck like this?
Make friends with the staff of your local library; they'll help you find something worthy of your time and effort.
the shack March 11, 2010 burow17 the book came before it was due to arrive. it was in great shape no complaints at all. very happy.
The Shack March 10, 2010 I dont know why they call this book a thriller. It is more of a feel good religious story. It was an okay read but I definitely would not categorize it as a thriller.
You want to hear this over and over March 6, 2010 Mary E. Gaines (Sunbury, Ohio USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I read this book but listening to the CD's was the most wonderful experience. You just have to listen to it over and over. This has been a wonderful blessing to our family. You will want to listen and follow along in the book at the same time. If you never do another thing , get this set of CD's
