The Shack by William Young

Finished The Shack over the holidays and it is the best book I've read in 2009.

If you know next to nothing about this book, it's about a man named Mack and his encounter with God.

The first part of the book deals with what the author calls The Great Sadness. While Mack and his children are camping, his youngest daughter, Missy, is kidnapped and brutally murdered. The only evidence found is a bloody dress inside a shack. Three years later, Mack receives a note in his mailbox inviting him to return to the shack.

Mack decides to go back to the shack and the experience that follows is phenomenal.

I've been hearing that there are concerns and objections to this encounter. But I have to tell you, this book is quite fulfilling. Before you pass judgment, pick The Shack up at your library and read it. Then you'll want to share your thoughts - good or bad.

5 out of 5 stars!
