Many of you may know I am continuing my education in the field of psychology. As a student I don't have the opportunity to read a great deal for pleasure only. While I enjoy many of my text books (many of them can be found on my website) I've put off reading novels until this summer break.

The Shack, is a book that came highly recommended to me. It is a spiritual novel and I'm not even finished with it and I will highly recommend it to you! It is an excellent novel. I've already cried, smiled inside and laughed out loud reading it. Written by Wm. Paul Young, it is a short 252 pages, but reads as if only 50. Yes, it is that sort of page turner. In fact I recommend that you do not start reading it until you have a chunk of free time, because you will NOT want to put it down.

Lastly, I want to add if you are a Christian this is a must read book. This book will bring you ever so much closer to your faith. If you've ever wondered about the Holy Trinity, you may find answers here, if you've ever wondered why Jesus died on the cross - it becomes ever so poignantly clear in this novel (it made me cry).

If you are former Christian, or someone that has turn away from Christianity don't let my former statements disuade you from reading this book. Regardless of your faith, it holds a deep spirituality and has something for everyone.
