The end...Oh. Heart-Shaped Box was also very good. <br />The ending of the book was pretty weird too! I suppose I will give it a watch one of these days. Read it so long ago that I may not notice little details.

Well, I said that at first and now I primarily do them. Weird how that happened. Anyway. Sad to hear Horns didn't live up to the book. Was looking forward to one day seeing it. Suppose it will end up being one of those fluke "happens to be on" things for me to watch it. Blah. Have you read his other books?

And I've...Oh my God, I hate that mentality too. And I've looked at the curriculum for ATI homeschooling and it's just awful. I feel like people like the Duggars are just so uneducated, it's sad. Then they send them to programs run by Bill Gothard who's an accused sexual predator. The whole thing is just insane. <br /><br />Brittani Burnhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07975067259283007280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-60201155683784064462015-01-20T12:30:00.112-06:002015-01-20T12:30:00.112-06:00Oh yes!

It's not like a formal blogathon thing, but I'll be posting my review of my selected book at the end of each month, and then I'm going to link to any book reviews written by fellow bloggers from that month too. I already had a few bloggers send me their links!

I've heard this author recommended numerous times, and -- of course -- you had me on "reminds me a lot of Boy A." :-)<br /><br />I find the extreme end of Christian fundamentalism interesting too -- I'm not sure why. When I first became a homeschooler, secular or "liberal" Christian homeschool groups weren't all that prevalent and visible yet. (Boy, has that changed!) So I joined a couple of groups of uber-Fundamentalist homeschoolers. I met a lot of nice people, whom I liked and respected, but I spent a lot of time biting my tongue. How any woman could subscribe to a "submit to your husband" mentality still baffles and infuriates me.<br /><br />A friend of mine is writing a play based on this worldview and this type of marriage. I'll pass along your two links. ;-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06574641672605054506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-71316096392684131132015-01-20T09:39:18.001-06:002015-01-20T09:39:18.001-06:00Ohh I didn't know you were making a community ...Ohh I didn't know you were making a community thing out of that.
