So I'm pretty much done with the Bible. I actually lost interest last weekend,midway through Revelation. I got through everything else, all the Apocrypha, including 4 Maccabees which isn't canon in any extant denomination, but I fizzled out during the epic, apocalyptic ending. There must be words to describe that, but I can't for the life of me think of them.


I need recommendations now. Specifically, I need recommendations for nonfiction books on the history of Yahwistic religions, and I need recommendations for fictional works (movie, play, literature, et cetera) about Satan. These recommendations will be used to write a book review in God class and create some sort of presentation in Satan class. I have lists of possibilities, but I wanna do something I've never heard of. Help me please, my darling Internet.

Meanwhile I'm reading trashy horror lit. The Bible was the densest book I've ever read, and it doesn't help that I was reading all the annotations as well. My brain rebelled against the seriousness, so I went and got a Stephen King collection. Reading that is like a metaphor about doing something really easy after spending a long while doing something more difficult.
