“I got halfway through this book and just couldn't finish. I am not saying that its a bad book but I just could not go on. Maybe its the personal issues I am going through right now or possibly the time of year. Maybe I will go back and read it again later.”

“I have not read any other book that is like this book. It is quite different. The Shack revolves around Mack (Mackenzie) Philips. Four years before this story begins, Mack’s young daughter, Missy, was abducted during a family vacation. Though her body was never found, the police did find evidence in an abandoned shack to prove that she had been brutally murdered by a notorious serial killer who preyed on young girls. As the story begins, Mack, who has been living in the shadow of his Great Sadness, receives a strange note that is apparently from God. God invites Mack to return to this shack for a get together. Though uncertain, Mack visits the scene of the crime and there has a weekend-long encounter with God, or, more properly, with the godhead. Young covers a wide variety of theological topics in this book, The Trinity, Submission, Free Will, Forgiveness, Scripture and Revelation, and Salvation.”

“I loved how this book presents God in a way that many of us will understand: if you Believe, is it possible that each of us may "see" Him in a way that is compatible with us (each person sees Him in their own way.) The tragedy was tear-making, but his experiences with God and the others, are enlightening, amusing, and believable in a world full of grief for this man. Enjoy.”
