Blue Like Jazz

God has finally answered me. This time through a book. Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller.

If someone wanted to know where I was spiritually in my life right now, they would just have to read this book.


My favorite book of all time is Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. The way Salinger writes is so down to earth, sarcastic, real and anything but phony. Donald Miller is Salinger's identical twin, but maybe better. I thought I would never again find a book that would change my point of view so drastically, but Blue Like Jazz succeeded with a capital S!

"I never liked Jazz music because Jazz music doesn't resolve. But sometimes you have to watch somebody love something before you can love it yourself... I used to not like God cause God didn't resolve. But that was before any of this happened." --Donald Miller

I could never put all of my thoughts about this book down. I just suggest everyone read it themselves.
