-Snow Day-

1)   I recently finished my book the Shack by Paul Young and don't know what to read next. I give the Shack a 3 out of 5 stars because all though it was very detailed and had tons of imagery, the author used words such as "absurdity" and "translucent" which kept the text rich and fresh. Although it was well written, I didn't really like how religious it was. The whole book was full of it. I would recommend this to a reader who enjoyed more difficult and religious books. Other than the downside, this book was very interesting and creative.

2)   One thing I am enjoying about Romeo and Juliet is all the creative word choice spread across the lines. There are  so many unique phrases and words not used today which keep this play entertaining. I also enjoy the plot with Romeo and Juliet from two different households and how Shakespear told the ending in the beginning, I thought that was very well thought of.
