    I want to read Ted Dekker so badly. I haven't read one yet. This Friday 56 sentence and the title really make heart go thumpety thump. I want to read it so badly. Thanks for hosting a meme.

    I haven't read this author, but I've certainly seen some great reviews on his books. That cover is compelling...and I'm feeling a knot in my gut as I'm wondering why he would return to a place that required such courage for him to leave!

    That cover just gives me the shivers! And makes me wonder why he'd want to go in again....even after five years.
