So, here it is... Finally!!! My first book review!!!
The Shack by William P. Young
256 pages
Completed 01/27/10
After reading this book, I felt accomplished and even a bit uplifted. I don't consider myself to be the religious type, but I am spiritual. Although this book was based around religious structure, I found it quite enlightening and would recommend it to anyone that has suffered a loss in life or faced adversity.
After his daughter Missy was abducted an killed, Mack (Mackenzie) basically withdrew himself from life and surrendered to depression. Years later, he receives an anonymous note inviting him back to place of his daughter's death: the shack. Determined to find out who wants him to go and why, he embarks on a journey that changes him forever.
Mack's weekend at the shack with his new found friends open up his mind and heart in a way never before. The religious references throughout the story were somewhat overwhelming, but equally enjoyable.
