Screwtape Letters


The next book that we will be reading is, The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis.

This book is about a demon, Wormwood, who is being mentored by his uncle, Screwtape, to lead his "Patient" to sin. In the body of the thirty-one letters which make up the book, Screwtape gives Wormwood detailed advice on various methods of undermining faith and promoting sin in his Patient.

I have not read this book, but I have heard several people give great reviews on it. I hope we all enjoy it and Jen will lead our discussion on January 23rd.

I have been a major slacker, but lucky me I have read this book. It is a slow read, but really makes you evaluate your life, I loved it and picked it for my ward book club last year! Good choice!

I love this blog book club- what a great idea! I am just finishing Eclipse and I need some books to tide me over before Stephenie finishes the next one. I'm totally in if you'll have me!

We would LOVE to have you, Amber!! When you are done with Eclipse, you should read one of our first posts about the Twilight series at the beginning of the blog!
