BOOK: Living With Confidence in a Chaotic World ~ Dr David Jeremiah


I was very interested in reading Dr David Jeremiah's work as I had heard plenty of good things about him. I was kind of disappointed in this book in the end. If it had been a book of inspirational stories, it would have been fantastic and would have been a job well done. He had so many inspirational stories in it that it made it feel like it was an anthology of inspirational stories and nothing more.

The book was ok, and it raised some good points. However, I'm a deep and meaningful kind of person, and I felt that all the stuff he was saying was just scratching the surface, and was something that a person with common sense already knows. I was hoping for a book that would make me think, not a book that would make me yawn. It was a tough book to get into simply because it lacked the substance I expected.

I know the end times are real, and books about it are as valid as any other book, but I look for something, fresh, new, deep and meaningful. Otherwise, like this book, it is not worth the time it took to read.

BOOK: Green ~ By Ted Dekker

With what I had heard about Ted Dekker being amazing, the book “Green” which was my first Dekker book, was kind of a disappointment. The idea of a book being a prequel and a sequel making a circular series really appealed to me. However, “Green” seemed like a whole bunch of confusion that did not go together.


I say it was confusing because Dekker takes us from the future, then to the past that is really the present that is really the past. There are also too many main characters for my liking. Aside from the confusion, he appears fascinated with blood, and adds in a vampire theme that was not appealing at all. The vampire theme is what ultimately ruined the book for me. It would have been a much better novel without it.

While I enjoy fiction that takes me deep, I do not appreciate highly graphic scenes, and this book has several. It churned my stomach at times. However, I would be willing to give this author another shot with another story. “Green” didn’t really endear the rest of the circle series to me though. If I read him again it would be a completely different series.
