With Friends Like These

Sally Koslow

At first, I thought the alternating first person chapters would be interesting, and in reality, found it to be a bit hard to follow. That said, the story of four friends finding each other, growing apart because of life’s demands, and then finding each other again was a rewarding one. It reminds us that life sometimes gets in the way of keeping everything the same. We need to grow and change as individuals, but we should work at keeping those friendships that keep us rooted to our cores.

Floating on Faith: The Story of Noah

David Boudreaux

Interesting. The author has taken the Genesis script of the story of Noah and the Flood and embellished it to create a novel. Beyond necessary if you ask me. He really didn’t go very deep. He wrote over and over that Noah prayed. Well, we could have guessed that because of all the people on the planet, he was the only one worthy in God’s eyes to be saved. Also, the writing becomes flat when he tries to incorporate information. It becomes encyclopedic; not interesting to read. Stick to the Bible in my opinion.
