In many ways I am of the mind that this book probably did not need to be written. It is not that I do not think that we pay enough attention to Christ. But that I am not sure that another book about Christ and the problem of not paying attention to Christ really will … Read more
The Nearest Exit is the follow up book after The Tourist. I read The Tourist early in 2009 soon after it came out but before I started reviewing books here. I rated it as one of my top fiction books last year. These are both spy books. They are post 9/11 spy books, so they … Read more
The Never War is the third in the Pendragon series (not the Steven Lawhead Pendragon Series). I liked the first book (it was free on Audible) and was pretty blah about the second. I would have stopped after the second, but there was a sale and it was only $5 and you know how … Read more
I am a little over half way through my first Overdrive Audiobook. Like my previous review of NetLibrary. Overdrive is a system that your local library system must subscribe to. Luckily I seem to have a progressive library system because they work with both Overdrive and Netlibrary. I thought they were the same system initially. … Read more

I posted a book review over at ChurchCrunch. Here is the start of the review: Twitter is ubiquitous. Now it is even a format for books ideas. It seems odd, but as far as I can tell (in my very brief amount of searching) this is the first book made up mostly of a curated twitter stream. … Read more
One of the best uses I have seen on ipad are the comic books. I have been a fan of comic books, but I never wanted to pay for them, so I have not collected or read that many. Ipad is a perfect comic book reader. Marvel has digital subscription that allows you for $60 … Read more
Agatha Christie’s The Body in the Library was offered free on kindle very briefly a few weeks ago. So briefly that I assume it was a pricing mistake, not a promotional offer. But I thought it was a good book to be my first full book on my ipad. I have blogged about the ipad … Read more
After three weeks with an ipad I have a variety of thoughts. First as a device, I love it. I carry it with me all the time. I think it is the perfect size to really use walking around the house and in the car and at the park. I have the wifi version, but … Read more
