They are both FANTASTIC authors with AMAZING stories. Sadly, a number of people at school actually have difficulty reading them
But i must wonder: do you guys see those authors in that way? Is this a question for the book club?
Sex God and Velvet Elvis? I don't know what they are about... but I'll look into Rob Bell. (The Reason For God [by Keller] was certainly interesting to me... and I'm a non-believer ^_^)
I was forced to read Kidnapped at school but found it quite boring and predictable, (although it has been quite a while since I left school, so my memory might be jaded).
I read a tale of two cities recently and can sympathize with your school friends who found him hard to read, Dickins never used one word when seven would do.
I think he was paid by the letter. Still a good read and worth the respect it gets.
