The Almost True Story of Ryan Fisher

A Novel

De: Rob Stennett

Narrado por: S.A/Rebecca Rogers/Rogers, S. Rogers, Rebecca Rogers

Meet Ryan Fisher—a self-assured real estate agent who’s looking for an edge in the market. While watching a news special late one night, he sees evangelical Christians raising their hands in worship. It’s like they’re begging for affordable but classy starter homes. Ryan discovers the Christian business directory and places an ad complete with a Jesus fish. His business doubles in a week. But after visiting an actual church, Ryan realizes that with his business savvy, he could not only plant a church—he could create an empire. The Almost True Story of Ryan Fisher is a hilarious, spot-on, and often heartbreaking satire in the tradition of Kurt Vonnegut, Tom Perrotta, and Douglas Adams.

Not Sure

I'm not sure if I really loved this book, or not. I'm not sure if it was meant to be a satire, or ??? It probably made me laugh more than it should have. What I do know is, it made me think about my faith, and what and who I believe in. I would definitely reccomend it to friends.

Not Funny, Ham Fisted, Disapointing

This book was quite disappointing. I was hoping for a humor filled book (and even a little smattering of Christianity would have been fine if it adds to the story)
Instead, (though the plot could have been interesting and funny and poignant) "The Almost True Story of Ryan Fisher" plot is a mere afterthought and was annoyingly ham fisted and clumsy in testifying about the bible, bible study, how everyone is happy going to church, etc.
