Rating: Summary: Okay Review: This is an okay book, in which Joshua is Jesus...duh. I mean throughout the whole entire book it is easily to tell but of course the priest don't know what is happening. I think this a disgrace to all priests because of how they get insulted. Other then that it is a good read.
Rating: Summary: EXCELLENT!! Review: THIS READ WAS EXCELLENT. I THOUGHT IT WAS "INTERESTING" AND I SAID YESSSSSSH AFTER READING EVERY SENTENCE. OCCASIONALLY I WOULD MAKE LONG ODD NOISES SUCH AS "HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM"
AS I SCRATCHED MY EASILY PARODIED HEAD. YOU SEE ITS GIGANTIC AND I TOUCH IT CONSTANTLY. IM ALSO THE YOUNGEST PERSON TO EVER GO BALD. IN SHORT THIS BOOK MADE ME HAPPY AND REALIZE THAT JESUS IS HERE WITH US 24/7.
Rating: Summary: I couldn't be bothered to finish it Review: What a waste of time and paper! In this book, Joshua appears outside the town of Auburn (not sure which state) and sets up a woodworking shop. Joshua is actually Jesus come back to preach. The only message he seems to be preaching, however, is "the rules the Catholic Church has are not what Jesus intended." He travels around the town, and people ask him random questions: "Joshua, what do you think of religion?" "Joshua, what about the Jews?" "Joshua, how did you get to be such a genius?"
I'm 10 chapters in, and here are the only events that amount to any plot, aside from these endless sermons. 1) Joshua makes a Moses statue for a synagogue (yeah, like that would happen!) 2) Joshua attends a party where the local Catholic priest gets drunk, while Joshua preaches to the people even more. 3) Joshua heals a little girl who has a fever.
It's just all too incredibly boring, and insulting to Catholics, to spend any more time with. Plus, it's really poorly written. Everyone in the town is "essentially good," and thus essentially interchangeable. We hear from the author that someone has a "prickly personality," but we never see a single example of this personality.
Desperately amateurish and mind-numbingly boring.
