I found the book Finding an unseen God by Alicia Britt Chole to be an interesting and easy read even if a little too simple in its message for my taste. Despite the "postmodern" style and feel of the book, it was really quite traditional in its message of believing in a God.
She uses an unusual structuring to get you interested as she weaves an interesting story with a few connectible characters, such as her father. The book starts with chapter 52 followed by chapter 1 then 51 and so on back and forth. The format was both intriguing and confusing for me. There were several chapter that I had to reread in order to understand what story she was talking about.
I did however; enjoy reading her patterns of thought and the ways she clearly shows she is now able to think about her belief and intellectually accept it. For me this was the most beneficial section of the book.
The book was a nice short read, that kept my attention enough to read it in two sittings. As a whole I don't think I will be recommending the book strongly, however it was enjoyable and includes some good and interesting ideas.
