I'm afraid it's the end .....

Hello, wonderful Shack readers.

     Well, I hate to do this, but I think that I have to discontinue the discussion.  The month of May is going to be a whirlwind for me (I'm out of town as I write this) and there's no way I can keep leading it.  The kids are coming home next weekend, I have a daughter graduating from college the next weekend and then I'm heading to Russia the day after that to visit our oldest child.  
      Tom graciously posted the discussion last week and we didn't get any comments.  It would appear that the interest, and/or the time is waning.
I know that May is a hugely busy month for many people.
      Now, if anyone feels strongly about this ...... and would like to lead the discussion I'd be happy to work that out.
Someone could even just write one last post that would sum up the rest of the book if they wanted to.

     I'm sorry to have to bow out like this ...... I think the the chapter-by-chapter method made it too long.

     I would love to continue discussing other books or topic here ..... which is why I called the site "Let's Discuss".  
If you have any ideas for topics or books that we could talk about .... I'd really appreciate hearing them.

     So once again ....... please jump in and and discuss .......

The book is amazing. Your posts have been great. Maybe the chapter by chapter process is a bit long. I can understand your need to step aside. Thanks for the insights!

Janine--thanks for doing this, and I'm sorry it had to end...for me, i always knew that for this blog i couldn't just sit down and glance through it and pop off a quick response...it took time. so, i'd go down my list of blogs, stopping at each one, then get to this one and say, "i'll have to come back to it, i don't have enough time now..." That is so because it was always filled with thoughtful and thought provoking comments. And as I told you, I'm not a Shack fan...but this blog did help to appreciate parts of it more. so, thanks again Janine (and Tom...and all the others who participated)...your efforts did not go in vain.

I'm sorry it had to end, too - I've thoroughly enjoyed the discussion, but, yes, this is just a busy time of year for everyone, I think. Thank you for leading it, and thank you to all who participated - I loved it - we should maybe finish it sometime! :)
