In this book, Schaeffer lays out his distinction between pre-evangelism and evangelism, which has shaped the way we think about sharing our faith and being "relevant" to today's culture. Overall, Schaeffer is most known for his defense of Christianity against modernism.

Although I've fallen out of love with Cornwell's last few attempts, this one is actually pretty good. If nothing else, a really quick read (I read 400+ pages yesterday) and a little less quasi-government-conspiracy.

Mao II and The Names are tours de force of elliptical language, bracingly visceral imagery and the post-art centered world where terrorism is the new means to the hearts and minds of the masses. A deep melancholy stains every page and the climaxes are at once hushed, claustrophobic and explosively open. I'm not sure if my contradictory reviews make me or Delillo more Buck Mulligan, but either way, it's all here.

Awful book ... one-dimensional characters, stiff dialogue, bland writing. Don't bother.

I just finished A Brief History of the Dead by Kevin Brockmeier, my 12th book of the year (for you just joining in, my goal is to read 60 books this year). This book was fantastic in a horribly morbid and mind twisting way. There wasn't a real ending to it, per se, you just know what is going to happen. The premise is that there are 3 stages you go through: Life on earth, the living-dead, and the dead. Life on earth is self-explanatory. If you are the living-dead, you've passed away but as long as there is someone alive who knew you and remembers you, you are still "alive". When the last person who knew and remembered you passes away, you are fully dead. This book deals with the living and the living-dead. It never crosses into the dead. A virus wipes out the world and the city of the living-dead dwindles because there's no one left on earth who remembers them. The few people left are being sustained by one woman who is dying. What happens if that woman dies? We don't know. But by reading the book, you can guess. How many people do you meet in your life? How many people do you remember? Think about it. You know your family, your friends, your friends family. College roommates, old lovers, your postman, the bank teller, people who work at the grocery store, the girl who sniffed you at Panera, the bitter librarian at the Pendleton library, girl scouts, coworkers, coworkers significant others, the friendly old man who greets you at wal-mart, high school enemies, current enemies, clients, the well dressed man standing behind you at Starbucks, the little kid in his pjs at Starbucks....how many people could you keep alive by memory alone? It's unreal. And is it true? Is it possible? The living-dead lived in the city like it was their second life. Nothing had changed except they had died. They worked, played, fell in love, and were as happy or sad as their natural disposition let them be (how's that for frightening? If you're a bitter person now, you always will be - who would *want* to remember you?). This was a book I marked up while I read. I really don't do that often. "Insofar as love generates hope, perhaps, the second part said. But love doesn't always generate hope. Anyone who has ever experienced love knows that you can have too much love or too little. You can have love that parches, love that defeats. You can have love measured out in the wrong proportions. It's like your sunlight and water - the wrong kind of love is just as likely to stifle hope as it is to nourish it." "At some point, when you were fourteen or fifteen, before you reached adulthood or knew who you were, you had to determine whether you were going to be the sort of person who held tight to every single thing that passed through your life, no matter how insignificant it was, or the sort of person who set it all adrift." (I'm the sort who holds on tight) "Not forever, but long enough" "It had been one of her chief preoccupations during the last few years of her life: the notion that there is not enough time left for her to really get to know anyone. Most people would say it's ridiculous. She understood that. She was only in her mid-thirties, after all. But whenever she would come into contact with someone new, someone whose stories she didn't already know by heart, sooner or later that person would start talking about days gone by, and she would get that sad, sickening feeling that too much had already happened to him and it was far too late for her to ever catch up. How could she ever hope to know someone whose entire life up to the present was already a memory? For that matter, how could anyone hope to know her?" Maybe it's a good thing I like hearing other peoples stories. Maybe I'll be able to keep a number of people in the living-dead That is, if I don't die first Read this book. Next up: I have 2 Laurell Hamilton books to read (Thanks for the tip, Laura!!)

This really is an entertaining series. It's light hearted with a pinch of vamp dramatics. This one wasn't the most exciting, but reading it did make me remember that I liked the first two. On to book 4!

1. Our heroine calms herself after a nightmare with a Virginia Slim and a Fuzzy Navel Cooler. Um, no. 2. Our hero has beaten up a judge. 3. A sixteen year old boy listens to Creedence Clearwater Revival on his "walkman." In 2003. Um, no. There are several other anachronisms and examples of reasons I, personally, do not connect with these characters, but these three are the most egregious. About halfway through the book, I completely stopped caring who was murdering the hookers. I admit I skimmed the rest just to find out, and I was not surprised. Horrified, and grossed out, but not surprised. Oddly, the author does the best job when she is narrating from the killer's point of view. That's a little disturbing as well. It seems to me that I've liked books by Sutcliffe before, but this one really misses the mark. Skip it.

okay, so they're not "just like the chem club" as somebody might have led me to believe (ahem, president...), but they are a group of girls who love each other so much. and in that sense, i can totally relate. and while we haven't gone skinny dipping in any water towers, you can't deny that we (well, the crazy half) almost went skinny dipping in long pond. had it not been for that ice and snow, we totally would have. i mean, we did pull the bongo drums out....
