The Screwtape Letters

I am reading C.S. Lewis's The Screwtape Letters. It is messing with my mind! I would never have picked it out, but Jason got it to read and I have read all the Amish books we checked out... so I had to try something new. Do you ever notice how if you do something a lot during the day, then you dream about it at night. How annoying! I jsut want to sleep without dreaming about Amish people or Mr. Wormwood and Screwtape.

Seriously, the book was hard to get into, everything is reversed because it basically is a bunch of letters (fictional of course) written between 2 devils. It makes you look at how you think of things and do things in a new light. It kind of gives you an insight into all kinds of silly traps we humans tend to fall into.

Am I boring you yet?

We have this book too. I think Richard had to read it in college or something...not sure. I started it one time but just couldn't force myself to continue at that time. It was years ago.

Dreaming about Amish...hahaha!
