 same kind of different as you and me December 7, 2008
This book was listed in a magazine as a good book for a book club and my club selected it for reading and discussion. Have just finished the book and enjoyed it immensely. Discussion to follow on Friday.
Humanity at Its Best December 6, 2008
This read was a quick one, but an important one. Each co-author provides a first-person account of how their "forged" relationship began, but despite their disparate backgrounds, one that grew to a unique friendship and bond that few people experience in life, but which more people should aspire to achieve. The co-autobiographical account was quite effective. While the message of the book is based on Christian teachings, which initially gave me pause, the authors refrain from proselytizing. Rather, they use the principles of charity, tolerance, and forgiveness to provide a unique narrative about how two ordinary men created an extraordinary bond.
AWESOME! December 6, 2008
Excellent point of view, you will have a hard time putting it down. It will make you remeber where you come from.
Same Kind of Different as Me December 3, 2008
Based on a true story. Very touching. I would love to meet the 2 men.
Good religious reading.
same kind of different as me November 30, 2008
This book was highly recommended by my sister and then three of my good friends, so I went out and downloaded the audio version, which is how I usually "read.' I could tell right away that it was abridged.
Therefor, I bought and actually sat down to read the book. It was great. I had so much fun sitting there with a cup (well, several cups) of tea. I learned a lot. I did not know that racism still exists to this extent.
But the book is not about racism, it is about love, giving and receiving.
Read it!!!
