Mee Lee's Reviews:
 

"The Shack" by William Young (fiction)
This is the story of a man who deals with the death of his youngest daughter and blames God.  Some may disagree with how the author tries to explain how God is part of what happens in our world, the good and the bad, but I feel it is a very well thought-out book and I like how it is written.  I absolutely recommend this book to everyone.  My suggestion, if you decide to read this book, is to keep an open mind and remember that it is fiction. 

 

"Sushi For One" by Cami Tang (fiction)
As I was reading the back cover of the book, I was thinking this could almost be a story of my life.  It's about a young, single Asian woman who faces the pressures of finding the right person quick before life is gone but being obedient to God.  This book reads a lot like a t.v. sitcom, which I totally could play out in my head and laughed at the same time the taped audience would laugh.  It's a fun, quick reading story that I actually learned a bit of Asian culture from.  So, even if you're not Asian or single, it's still a fun little book.  This book is geared more toward the 20-30 something aged women, but I think it can be fun no matter the age or gender.  

 

"What A Girl Wants" by Ashley Stockingdale
This was a fun story, albeit nothing that I could relate to in my life but still a fun story.  A single woman living in Silicone Valley as a lawyer who also is trying to find love in the midst of life.  There's a little romance and a lot of self-realization on the main characters' part.  I'm not fond of the mooshy-deep meaning-learn something valuable from the characters-kind of stuff but the book kept it simple, plus it's fiction so it's fine with me if there's no real meaning.  I feel this is a book for the 30-somethings age group, but don't take my word for it, give it a try.
