Tyler Blanski invites his readers to journey with him
through the winding roads of Christiandom and find the Renaissance of revival in
today’s religious society. We strapped ourselves onto donkeys and rode through
the myths that make up faith and trails that took us to the truth of what we
seek. Through When Donkeys Talk, which I had the chance to read through Booksneeze®,
we traced the steps of those who came before us and reformed faith in Christ to
a vibrant, real relationship.
Unfortunately,
I couldn’t keep up with the pace of Blanski and didn’t quite follow much of his
quest’s logic. I wasn’t a fan of how he kept referring to his donkey as an a**
and wove the alternate meaning in with us as we struggle to find a firm faith foundation.
It distracted me from giving my concentration to his story. The concept of the
book was a good idea, and I understand the message he wanted to convey; for me,
it was a bit too much hidden behind the allegory he portrayed. It didn’t
capture my attention, though I liked his mind conception. It is a nicely constructed book, but I don’t
know if I would recommend it with gusto to a friend.
