Green
On 10/14 Jason Skipper wrote: Green by Ted Dekker My rating: 4 of 5 stars Green is the last and the first of a series. One can begin the series with it, or end the series with it. It is a sort of Christian science fiction. It is almost Narnia for adults. The story line is good. It hooks the ... Book Review: Green; Book Zero, The Beginning And The End by Ted Dekker
Beautiful Mess
On 10/4 Jason Skipper wrote: Diamond Rio: Beautiful Mess When given the chance to review Beautiful Mess, I took advantage of it. This is an amazing book.

Book Review: Diamond Rio: Beautiful Mess
The Expanded Bible

The Noticer
On 7/14 Jason Skipper wrote: The Noticer Andy Andrews has certainly written a gripping book. It is not that The Noticer is a nail biter, or cliff hanger. It’s simply interesting. The characters are real. The situations are real. The wisdom of the advice given is real. The noticer appears at critical times in a person’s ... Book Review: The Noticer
