The Fury of the Fae by Bernie Morris6/28/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() When the 1919 Stanley Cup Final began in Seattle on March 19, it had all the makings of one of the great series in professional sports. It is the first and only time that a major North American professional sports season ends with co-champions. The Spanish Flu pandemic sweeps through Seattle, hospitalizing five Canadiens players and killing Montreal's Joe Hall, and the series is abandoned. An improbable 0-0 tie in Game 4 and a Montreal victory in Game 5 leave the series deadlocked at 2-2-1 on March 29 - and that is where it ends. While the five-game series is played on the Mets' home ice, Seattle is at an immediate disadvantage when leading scorer Bernie Morris is arrested and jailed for draft evasion. The ill-fated 1919 Stanley Cup Final features the Seattle Metropolitans against the storied Montreal Canadiens. ![]()

But the protagonist, as she "finds" Christianity, and "accepts" Jesus Christ as her "personal Lord and Savior," constantly says things like, "I've never learned about forgiveness or Jesus or grace before-all this is so foreign to me I don't know what to think." Since she was raised Amish and had been to church at least once every week, of course she "knew Jesus"! Give me a break. ![]() I don't know much about the Amish (the protagonist was raised Amish), but I do know that they consider themselves to be Christian: they believe in the Bible and in Jesus Christ. ![]() I consider myself to be a tolerant person when it comes to religion-I think everyone should find what works for them and stick with it-but I really hate it when people who belong to one religion make judgments about those from another. Besides the unbelievable plot developments, the poor writing, the forced and cheesy dialogue, and the fact that this easily could have been one book instead of three, I think the thing that most drove me crazy about this series (particularly this last book) was the author's constant and redundant preaching of her own narrow view of Christianity. ![]() Hocus Pocus by Teresa Roblin6/26/2023 ![]() IT IS A VIOLATION PUNISHABLE UNDER LAW FOR ANY PERSON UNDER THE AGE OF TWENTY-ONE TO PRESENT ANY WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF AGE WHICH IS FALSE, FRAUDULENT OR NOT ACTUALLY HIS/HER OWN FOR THE PURPOSE OF ATTEMPTING TO PURCHASE ANY ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE.
