Pilgrim's Regress

So, I've been kinda hanging out waiting for the next book, so I decided to start pulling off books from the bookshelve that you always "wanted to read", but just never have had time. So the first:

Pilgrim's Regress, by C.S. Lewis!



It's really rather good, and a little crazy, and at times extremely hard to really catch the whole picture (lots of intellectual words and concepts...that loose you sometimes), but it's been a great read, and any of you out there just wanting a pick me up...PICK IT UP!

PS. the book cover on this one is a little scary...

Character Developments

OK Ladies -- I am in the final chapters of the book, and I am DIEING to know what has happened! I have had dreams about diamonds, and just craziness! It's almost like i have to force myself to think and read other things...b/c I'm a little obsessed. It may be slightly slow in areas, but I have loved the book. I can't wait to hear what you guys think about it.

I think I really like how he develops characters. You are allowed to form your own opinion of each character based on how you feel about the narrative person speaking, and their character. Does this make sense? It's what we do in everyday life! If Amy tells me a girl is AWESOME from camp, I take her opinion very highly in that area, and I too am under the impression this girl should be great for camp! ...ect, ect. Anyways, I pray you girls are doing well and are encouraged! Love ya!
