Solomon Summaries

Just last week I was looking for a book to cover a rather specific topic. I found one that, according to the description offered, was exactly what I wanted. I ordered it and waited eagerly for its arrival. After reading the first chapter I discovered this book wasn’t at all what I needed. I invested time and money into something I really didn’t want and now I’ll have to invest more time and money to find what I thought I had already found. I hate that!

This is why I am SO EXCITED about Solomon Summaries. A brand new service by husband and wife team, Chris and Heather Goodman, Solomon Summaries is something like Cliffs Notes for Christian books. You’ve seen my stacks of books. If you’re anything like me, with more books to read than time to read them, you’ll love this service.

Here’s how it works.

  • They read the books then write an an 8-10 page summary.
  • They email you when new summaries are available (one each week = 52 books a year).
  • You log onto their website whenever is most convenient for you and read, print or listen to of the books that interest you.
  • If you want to read more, you can order the book directly through their site.

That’s it. Pretty cool – huh? It’s like a screening process done by your own personal assistant. No more buying the wrong book or investing more time than necessary into reading the wrong stuff. No more reading extra fluff when all you really want are the key points.

Now here’s the really good news:

You can try it FREE between now and December 1st! Also, you will be entered into a drawing for a stack of books with your subscription, all because you heard about it from me through this blog tour. Just make sure you give them my name in the “how did you hear about us” section.

Want to see a sample summary? Here’s one for Mere Christianity by C. S. Lewis and here’s one for The 10 Commandments of Marriage by Ed Young.

  1. Thanks so much for hosting us!
    Confession (I hope I’m allowed to confess this): The example summary of Mere Christianity has so many typos! Oy vey! We were going, going, going to get everything up. But if you sign up for the summaries, you’ll get a fully-corrected Mere Christianity this week.
    (I’m so embarrassed!)
