Well,  The Shack, http://www.amazon.com/Shack-William-P-Young/dp/0964729237  ...
I just finished listening to a well-read Audible version of this book by William P. Young.

The story came well-recommended and I appreciate the opportunity and challenge that it provided me.
However, I don't recommend the book.

Since the crux of the content is metaphysical

i'm sorry to hear that this was not for you what it has been for myself and for so many i know.

to each his own.

I noticed the mixed reviews on Amazon and sampled both the 5 stars and the 1 star. It's interesting to note the quality of the mix of objectivity and subjectivity in the reviews. (mine included) Sentiment is a major factor for sure. Anything that so many people like is suspicious.

But all that can be whatever it is. I am far more genuinely interested in reading your review of it. And Casey's, as I became increasingly curious why it appealed to him.

And thanks again for the recommendation. I hope you will continue to recommend reads that move you.

And if you are interested in discussing any part of the content of the book, I'd be delighted, either here or elsewhere.
