Neither a page turner or resounding classic, Uncle Tom's Cabin remains necessary canon to combat increasingly ahistorical American discussion.

Book Review: The Great Gatsby
This is the most reader-friendly of Fitzgerald's novel. It's a rush of a novel with mostly toned-down renditions of all his idiosyncrasies.
Book Review: To a God Unknown
This is a book I want to own and digest slowly. I have high hopes that it will become one of my favorite books.
Book Review: Travels with Charley
“Beyond my failings as a racist, I knew I was not wanted in the South. When people are engaged in something they are not proud of, they do not want witnesses. In fact, they come to believe the witness causes the trouble.” - Steinbeck
Book Review: Why Can't We Be Friends? (Joshua Torrey)
The church is uniquely those called by the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ to be united with one another; but through over-sexualization, it has allowed its members to be severed one from another. By grounding her thesis in the humanity and unity found in Jesus Christ, Byrd provides the stable blocks for further discussion and application of deeper fellowship among the members of Christ's body.
Music Review: Both Ways
It's the album that I will forever remember as the pre-Peter album that encouraged me to live life to the fullest with my (currently only) four children. It's become an album that will forever be a specific moment in my life.
Music Review: Let The Trap Say Amen
There is no reason to flirt with secular music. If you gonna do it, just do it. Skip Lecrae.
Book Review: Moby-Dick
I have finally read Moby-Dick and I can finally say that "yes" this books is the epitome of my literary taste.

Book Review: Fahrenheit 451
In conclusion, Fahrenheit 451 is one of those books that I will eagerly place in front of my kids. I look forward to having discussions about its content and themes.
Music Review: Elephant Heart
This won’t be my record of the year, but I will listen to it many more times before the year is out. I don’t think we’ve seen the best Elizabeth Gundersen has to offer, and I look forward to additional singles and releases.
Music Review: Ye
Is this going to be your favorite 23 minutes of Kanye? No. Is this going to have hits that you’ll be jamming to for the next 10 years? Probably not.
Book Review: East of Eden
My own pessimism frowned at the optimism that litters the eventual climax of Steinbeck's great novel.
Book Review: This Side of Paradise
There are so many high points that reflect Fitzgerald's unique style that I'm confident I'll return to it soon.
Book Review: The House of Mirth
For those with patience and a taste for intellectually stimulating pages of descriptive writing, The House of Mirth is delightful.
Book Review: Gone with the Wind
Gone with the Wind is a masterpiece.
Book Review: The Beautiful and Damned
In conclusion, The Beautiful and Damned was not as satisfying as Tender is the Night.
Book Review: Tender is the Night
The imperfections only serve to drive the story deeper. I wish I had read this novel twenty years ago.
