I'm thinking you should 'rate' the books on a scale of, say, 1-5, with 5 being "highly recommended".

I also really liked The Living End and Tiger Lillie.<br /><br />Hey, you got a comment from Brandilyn Collins--how cool is that. I've read some of her books and they're great as well! Eyes of Elisha and the Cast a Road Before Me series (of three)--all really great reads.<br /><br />And a note to Shalee...Ted Dekker is also one of my favorite authors. You NEVER know what to expect, except that it will be the unexpected! Have you read the Circle trilogy (Black, Red, White)--AWESOME!!!Lisa Spencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12990706355525884593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-79769096827734998602007-01-22T13:27:00.000-07:002007-01-22T13:27:00.000-07:00I'll have to check this one out!

You make this sound so good, it's already on my wish list.<br /><br />There's a name for people who have children to care for AND older parents to care for. I can't remember what it is.

I thoroughly enjoyed the mystery, the bantering and the way that God becomes a real, realized active part to the key characters in the book. Two thumbs up from me!<br /><br />(I started Three by Dekker this morning before work. I can't wait until I can pick it up again...)Shaleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02364055849106684154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-9494423486239823812007-01-22T08:52:00.000-07:002007-01-22T08:52:00.000-07:00This is a new book/author to me, although I may ha...This is a new book/author to me, although I may have seen her name on the reading challenge.

I agree with you - some of Ivy's struggles caught me off-guard at first, but then I thought that I bet more Christians struggle with those temptations than we ever hear about. I thought Lisa did a very good job creating Ivy, and like you, I was drawn into her world.Katrina @ Callapidder Dayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06502432103160398620noreply@blogger.com
