Scoop by Rene Gutteridge

I am not sure if I have ever read any of Gutteridge. This book seemed a little stilted to me. She tried to develop too many characters and so I wasn't really attached to any one of them. The story was about a tv news crew and the foibles that occurred off air and how they translated on air. It was all about the ratings. Every stereotype of person was included, the closet christian that didn't share his faith, the in your face christian that is always praying for you, the ego maniac, the boss on anxiety medicine and then the traitor for a boss. I enjoyed the book, but found it easy to put down and did not really feel impacted by the message.

Why the Sky is Blue by Susan Meissner

This will be a strange post, but I read this book so long ago that I honestly can't remember the story line. So, unfortunately it must not have impacted me very much. I know that I read it, but couldn't really give you a review. Sorry :(
