Blue Like Jazz

So I tried my hand at some Non Fiction. I think it worked out okay... I'm strictly a novel gal, well novels and biographies, which are basically just true novels. Anyway I had to see what all the fuss was about. You see I am a Christian. But I wouldn't call myself your basic right - wing conservative pew sitting Christian. But let's keep politics out of it.. that what Jesus did. So, back to my original point, SO many people have been telling me I have to read Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller. Which was reason enough for my rebellious self NOT to read it. But I finally conceded since I was at the bookstore and my dad was paying. I started this book on Saturday, and finished it in one day. I'm serious. I could not put it down except for bathroom breaks, food and caring for the kiddos. The book is "nonreligious thoughts on Christian spirituality" . And I have to say it is definitely not religious. He is a Christian, and I love his thoughts on living your life for God outside the box. the book is more or less him telling the story of his life so far, his adventures in seeking God... the true God.... within himself. He meets many interesting people along the way. A few girlfriends, and a few guy friends who are hilarious. His writing is so easy to read. I'd say if you call yourself a Christian you could really benefit from reading this book. It'll blow your mind...... So Happy Reading!!
