Comment on Finishing Revelation by Neverending story

As always ‘meat’ for my soul. I know you grapple with the value of blogging and I would like to encourage you that I find your blog very ‘meaty’. I long to come across my Christian faith well thought through and not thinned out into simplistic dogma. When my fellow Christians and my inner doubting Thomas plague my faith I come here and sigh with relief.

I spent a whole year (well, Aug./Sept.-April) last year on REvelation, and like you, I can’t say I understand it much AT ALL. It’s glorious, though.

I like that–”it will not always be like this.”

Comment on BTT: Why you read by Lex Cut

Oh the question for the latest BTT is so hard Janet! I actually don’t understand how reading could be so complicated. But I’m kind of understanding a bit of what I’m reading – that was Birkert’s opinion and that I don’t quite agree with him when I agree with you that life is insufficient in the sense that I have more to see or learn.

Thanks for sharing this, Janet. I love your “take”–that the bottle was the sum total of her life’s experiences.

Chalice sounds disappointing–which is too bad. I generally enjoy what I’ve read from Robin McKinley (Beauty is my favorite so far).

I remember really liking ‘The Hero and the Crown,’ but ‘Beauty’ is what I’ve read most recently. I think that’s the one I’d recommend.

I’ve never read anything by Robin McKinley, ‘though I think I’ve brought something home from the library at least once. What would you recommend as a good book to start with?

These are all new to me, and sound utterly delightful. I particularly like the sound of The Man who Didn’t Wash his Dishes
