Book Review

In the interest of keeping on top of all this blogging--time to post more comments. In an effort to broaden my reading horizons, I have been checking out the recommended reading banner on the SIL Web site. From there, I chose the book The Dogs of Babel by Carolyn Parkhurst. This book was a quick read; and was a touching, but tragic story. As you might have guessed from the title, one of the characters in the book is a sweet Rhodesian ridgeback dog named Lorelei. There is some tragedy and twists to the story, but the main human character Paul is just that--very human in how he deals with grief.

I don't think I'll say much more since I don't want to give away the story. (I wouldn't be very good at writing jacket copy to entice readers into a book--I'd give away too much of the story.) Overall, I'm glad I read the book for the "slice of life" it portrayed. If you've also read the book, let me know your thoughts.
