Nick of Time

The story is very engrossing. Nick is a refreshingly original sleuth, and the murder mystery that captivates him to the point of forgetting about the girl he’s left behind in a town where she want to honeymoon with him. I also did not expect to learn so much about bugs from a man who does not like to be arounf people very much. He has a small group of people that he can tolerate but is learning that he needs people more than he realized. The characters were well built and had great depth. I know that this Nick of Time books are a series, so I am going to to have to grab some of the other books and check them out as well.

Max on Life

Because of the wide variety of questions, I believe that this book would be helpful for every Christian, whether new or have been a Christian for a long time and I would recommend it. It is a great read and he has a way of making you think like you normally wouldn't. This book is very insightful and answers many of those questions that we wonder about. Anyone, from anywhere, and at any walk of life could find something useful and pertaining to their individual situation. Max writes about the role of prayer, the purpose of pain, and the reason for our ultimate hope.
