I just finished The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis. Great book! It was an amazing study on human nature.

I read that cover to cover years ago, but spent a lot of time last weekend thumbing through it again, great read.

I read that book. For me it felt too fake to be real and too real to be fake, so I didn't enjoy it much. What did you think?
I really enjoyed it

A Thriller/mystery/theological book

Only Ted Dekker can do that

really though it had me on the edge of my seat! I recomend anybody who isn't a wuss (It's not very scary but their are a few parts) To read it

That is my favorite TD book ever! I thought he did a fantastic job!
And I am currently reading 'The Silver Chair' by C.S. Lewis.

Nah Robert Liparulo does arguably as good or better at it.
Anyway I'm reading
The B. S. of A. by Brian Sack.

I must agree.
I just finished
Till We Have Faces by C. S. Lewis, which was amazing, and
Invasion by Jon Lewis, and then I started on
Green by Ted Dekker, but it really didn't catch my interest at all... maybe I'll pick it up some time later, after the epicness of C. S. Lewis has worn off. I'm really not feeling interested in modern Christian fantasy any more.

(I don't count C. S. Lewis as modern, though he probably is. What I mean by modern Christian fantasy is teens riding around on dragons and swordfighting with expert evil swordsmen twice their size (and beating them) and casting spells -all mixed up to make a blatant allegory with no depth whatsoever. Anyway...who cares...)

I just finished reading Thunder of Heaven by Tim Lahaye. His end-times fiction is getting old...there's only so many times that you can tell the same story...it was a pretty enjoyable read, with a fairly riveting storyline, though. I'd give it a 7/10.

I finished Heather Song by Michael Phillips. It was very good although I liked Angel Harp better. I am now starting A Sound Among the Trees by Susan Meissner.

I read a lot of books, but I skimmed through the AstroKids series by Robert Elmer. Ehh. There's a reason why they're written for little kids

I love the Redwall series! I read a few of them a long time ago, but I've been thinking of picking them up again.

Hmm...well, I recently read parts of the last two
Mysterious Benedict Society books, and I read the first two
Dork Diaries books a few weeks ago. I really want to get my hands on
The Son Of Neptune, though--Percy has claimed his series back!
