Finished Reading: Auschwitz – A Short History by Ben Stevens


Auschwitz: A Short HistoryAuschwitz: A Short History by Ben Stevens
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A very brief introduction to the horror that was Auschwitz and those that ran it. There are no words. It is difficult to rate such books when the subject matter is so dreadful.

Finished Reading: Origins of History – The War of the Spanish Succession by James Ker


Origins of History: The War of the Spanish SuccessionOrigins of History: The War of the Spanish Succession by James Ker
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

This was a very brief introduction to the complicated War of the Spanish Succession – it was really far too brief. I suppose it was useful to a point, but I would have preferred a larger work and treatment.

Finished Reading: John Calvin and His Passion for the Majesty of God, by John Piper


John CalvinJohn Calvin by John Piper
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book can be best described as a rudimentary introduction to the life and principles of John Calvin. With that in mind, it is good and useful as far as it goes. Hopefully, it will whet the appetite for further research of the greatest of the Reformers by readers of it.

Finished Reading: Unbreakable by Jelena Dokic


UnbreakableUnbreakable by Jelena Dokic
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book didn’t include great writing, however, the subject matter made up for it. This was a powerful, yet sad story. What a terrible father and what terrible abuse this poor girl suffered. Thankfully she has come out the other side, with scars no doubt, but she has come out the other side. I loved her tennis back in the day, but of course, didn’t understand the back story.
