The Devil Wears Prada: A Novel 1025 reviews Lauren Weisberger
Broadway, 2004
Great Read
+ A must have. + Uneven
I just loved this book! I thought that the writing was brilliant. Towards the end though it did get repetitive about just how bad her boss was. I wanted to say, "Okay, I get it already!" It was a bit much. But all in all, I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend it.

The Keep 111 reviews Jennifer Egan
Knopf, 2006
Beautifully written, mysterious, and compelling
+ Hard to put down
This is one of those books it's near impossible to describe. Not because there isn't a plot--there is, and a compelling one--but because there's so much more going on than what's explicitly happening. It's a novel in nested circles, ripples that spread from a single inciting incident in the ...

Zondervan, 2006
READ THIS BOOK!!
+ Rob Bell Shows Us More + An Appeal to Think
Before I decided to read this book my friends kept telling me, "If you're comfortable with your faith, don't read this book," to which I replied, "If you're comfortable with your faith then something is wrong." If we don't challenge our faith, then how will we ever develop spiritually?
