Paige (428 KP) rated The Complete Chronicles of Narnia in Books

These are really uneven.
If you skip The Horse and His Boy, The Last Battle, and arguably The Magician's Nephew, these are pretty good reads.

Thought there might be more psychological theories in it, but got involved into a conversation about religion and God, whether he exists or not, and I am not a person that enjoys those kind of reads, I suppose. Nice book, but definitely not for me.

I can see why this book gets challenged. Although up until the ending, there was only one mention of religion. What an interesting book. I enjoyed listening to the audiobook version read by the author. She knew what the characters sounded like and acted like. Added a dimension to the reading.

Well half the book I couldn't understand, which was cool because that's the premise but wow did i ever just not understand some of it - and it was like it's own religion I feel - worship Nollop - lose letters - it was very truly interesting and i enjoyed reading it but ... wow lol

PN (1 KP) rated American Gods - Season 1 in TV

For Whom the Gods live
The onscreen adaptation of Neil Gaiman's book is an excellent one. Combining topics of philosophy, religion, culture and modern day icons around present America, it stylistically portrays do we need God and whether Gods need us. A bit explicit for everyone's taste, nevertheless, a treat to sore eyes.
Sean Farrell (9 KP) rated The First Muslim: The Story of Muhammad in Books
Mar 15, 2018
Fascinating look at the likely reality of a man who created a leading world religion. Helps one to understand many of the conflicting things about Islam and some of how the Middle East has wound up as it has. If you take nothing else from it, it is at least engagingly well written.
