This book really helped me to understand who I am as a man in terms of creation. Why do I like to drive motorcycles, why do I love to travel the world where the average person dare not tread. Why at the gym I have the need to lift more weight and drive my heart that much harder? It's because that is how God made me. God has a wild and dangerous aspect to His personality. We can see it in creation itself and it's reflected in every man. from ChristianBook.com: Helping men rediscover their masculine heart, Wild at Heart, a guide to understanding Christian manhood and Christian men, offers a refreshing break from the chorus of voices urging men to be more responsible, reliable, dutiful ... and dead. God designed men to be dangerous, says Eldredge. Simply look at the dreams and desires written in every boy's heart: to be a hero, to be a warrior, to live a life of adventure and risk. Sadly, most men abandon those dreams and desires---aided by a Christianity that feels like nothing more than pressure to be a "nice guy." It's no wonder that many men avoid church, and those who go are often passive and bored to death. In this provocative book, Eldredge gives women a look inside the true heart of a man and gives men permission to be what God designed them to be---dangerous, passionate, alive, and free.

The book follows a group of hoodlums who want to be full time mobsters through the main characters of Pinkie and Rose. I've enjoyed many of Greene's novels but this one left me feeling quite disappointed. I didn't get a sense of his immersive writing style; this story failed to grip me. I struggled to find any interest in the plot and waded through the book in the hope of an exciting conclusion which never came.

Teen suicide isn’t exactly a humorous topic so it may come as a shock to some readers to find that Ned Vizzini’s book, It’s Kind of a Funny Story, manages to bring a few smiles even as it deals with such a very un-funny topic. Though it is not autobiographical, Vizzini began work on Story only one week after he himself was released from an adult psychiatric hospital. This experience lends an air of authenticity to the story, which follows Craig Gilner on a roller coaster of depression, anxiety, and recovery. An over-achieving, neurotic, disconnected teen, Craig is so burned out by the age of fifteen that he comes to a drastic decision. He will bike to the Brooklyn Bridge and throw himself off. Somehow, though, he ends up calling the Suicide Hotline instead and decides to give this life thing one more shot. Instead of throwing himself into the river, Craig throws himself at the mercy of the psychotherapists, doctors, and nurses at the psych ward of the hospital just around the corner from his home. There he meets a cast of characters who are all as damaged as he is--a transvestite sex addict, a couple of self-professed “garbage heads,” a schizophrenic, a paranoid college professor, and a girl so broken that she has scarred her own face. Though he only stays in the hospital for five days, Craig undergoes a transformation surrounded by his fellow misfits. Slowly he comes to understand just what has caused his anxiety and depression and how to deal with the craziness of his surroundings without losing his mind. With its frequent references to drugs, drinking, sex, and teen suicide, It’s Kind of a Funny Story is, to say the least, controversial. But it takes a frank and necessary look at the mad dysfunction of adolescence in America. As Randy Pausch once said, “Children are living the stories we wouldn’t let them read.” Vizzini gives voice and face to these “children” with grace and courage. A realistic, heart-breaking, and somehow laugh-out-loud funny rendition of what it means to be young and imperfect in post-modern America.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was fast, easy reading. Humorous and just a touch "out there". I look forward to reading other Criswell books.

Not a book I'd normally choose, but that's what book clubs are for - to broaden your horizons. Hopefully.
