It will start in the last week of January. Now the deadline is over, and we will be five: Lajla, Thomas, Ian, Wolfram, Michael. How said Lajla, after collecting first impressions: „Johnny Cash Prime Time!“
“Once in a blue moon a book drops down on your desk that demands to be read. You pick it up and read the first page, and then the second, and you are hooked. Such a book is Ordinary Grace…This is a book that makes the reader feel better just by having been exposed to the delights of the story. It will stay with you for quite some time and you will always remember it with a smile.”
“One cannot read Ordinary Grace without feeling as if it is destined to be hailed as a classic work of literature. Ordinary Grace is one of those very rare books in which one regrets reaching its end, knowing that the experience of having read it for the first time will never be repeated. Krueger, who is incapable of writing badly, arguably has given us his masterpiece.”
Overall praise for the book that will be the central theme of our second parallel reading adventure.
