I really enjoyed this book. Kevin Roose is a terrific writer. This was his first book and I must say, I was really very impressed.
Here's a quick summary of the book. Kevin is not a Christian. He was attending the very liberal Brown college when he met some students from the extremely conservative Liberty University (founded by Jerry Falwell). Meeting these kids made him wonder what it would be like to spend a semester at Liberty as kind of an undercover "Christian" if you will. So, that's exactly what he did and he wrote this book to tell the story.
The book is highly entertaining, clever, and very funny. In fact, it's so funny that I irritated my wife with eruptions of laughter that seem to sneak up out of no where! The book is honest and open about life at Liberty. Reading it may surprise you. I think the experience surprised Kevin
Here is a video that will give you a glimpse into Kevin's experience at Liberty.
