I'm never sure how to describe Donald Miller books. "Ramblings on Spirituality" might make a good subtitle for all of them. This book's subtitle is "Reflections on Growing Up without a Father." Reflections might be another way of saying rambling. I'm not complaining; Donald Miller is a fun author to read! It was just hard to understand why he wrote this book. I suppose that authors need to write to earn a living, so you just write what you want and put it together in a semi-organized way. (Kind of like my blog!) This book explored the way that God can act as a father and how that relationship looks when someone has no father to guide him. (This book was written mainly for men.) It talks about becoming a good person and the ways fathers can role model characteristics of God. There was not too much ground-breaking. Still, an interesting, introspective book. If it was any longer or more difficult to read it would not have been worth the time. As is, it was worth taking a weekend to add another Donald Miller to the collection.
