That's always grand: wanting a book but not having the money for it. I just love when that happens...
 
Hmm, well my local library only has about 3 Dekker books, so I just buy his books when I can.
 
lucky indeed. Mine has mostly old books, and a rather dinky selection of Christian authors.

i read the book like 2 years ago. and i still want to see the movie even tho its bad. cuz im just like that. so yeah.... I want to see the movie someday.
 
Thr3e was horrible as a movie... I loved the book so I talked my friend into seeing it with me. At the end he turned to me and held out a hand and said, "I want my eight bucks."

And it's a pretty universal feeling on that movie... Rotten Tomatoes gives it a 6%... Check it out here

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/thr3e/

That means out all the reviews it averaged together, a total of 36, only 6%(or 2 of them) were positive. It also gave the average rating as 3.2 out of 10...

Of course I just looked at the rating on House and it got 0% when its reviews were averaged together and a score of 2.7 out of 10... That's out of 11 reviews... Can't really comment on the accuracy of it though because I never saw that one... And 11 reviews isn't really a lot to get an average rating on...
 
lol i dont know why ppl bother making movies if they turn out horrible!
 
Huh, I actually watched Thr3e the movie and liked it.. it was one of those that youd have to watch a second time to notice major detail, at least for me, but my fiancee bought the movie and we both liked it.

Now as far as books i do like Ted Dekker and Frank Peretti.. 2 older books that peretti wrote that i read as a teen and loved was Piercing the Darkness and the one that goes with that one i cant remember the name now.
I read House it was good
I read Monster it was ok

I personally enjoy Christian Fiction inspirational romances. Love inspired series' are good if u like those.

they are all older but the Left Behind Series from Tim Lahaye and Jerry B Jenkins were very good, i enjoyed those in my teen years.

soo yeah.....

This Present Darkness. I'm rereading it right now

This Present Darkness is actually the first of the two books.
 
You are soooo RIGHT thank you!!! I could not remember.. but yes and both are GREAT reads
 
I've read a few of Francine Rivers books.. they are very good! The Last Sin Eater, I've had a lot of negative feedback on it, but I liked it :D She also wrote the Mark of the Lion series... EXCELLENT books! They are historical fiction with a little bit of everything else mixed in.
Frank Peretti is good too. The Prophet was a bit long and drawn out, and I found that I had to really make myself read it at first. But once you get into it, its good. This Present Darkness was the best one of his though, I think.
 
I'd recomend The Left Behind Series. I haven't read the adult series yet, but I will soon. I'm still working on the kids series, though I can't get any more of the books at my library... Still, it's an awesome series. Both of my parents have read it and loved them.
 
you should read California chances. it is a christian romance novel. there are other books like this for every state in the us and some other countries.
 
Coraline is a really good childrens book! i still haven't seen the movie but i really want to!
 
I love David Jeremiah books too..

Left Behind Series.. TimLahaye... really good book. ;)

I'm reading Triumph Over Temptation now foreword by J.I.Packer, written by John Owen.. A must read book for Christians..
