This was *so* not what I was expecting. I started this thinking I was getting some sort of utopian sci-fi story, but instead I feel Considering SomeplacElse fits a little more securely in the Christian fiction genre. In this case, the unexpected wasn’t a bad thing. I quite enjoyed the story of Norm, the “chronically underemployed baby boomer” who finds himself interviewing at SomeplacElse. Then, about halfway there’s a sudden twist as the story changes to that of Adam Wainwright, the “soon-to-be-governor playboy millionaire”. Norm is a much more likeable character than Adam, who really doesn’t have many redeeming qualities at all, despite the importance of his part in the story. Things get a little jumbled and busy once you get to the climax of the story, but overall I found this to be a very satisfying read, which just goes to show you that you don’t need to agree with a book’s politics or spirituality to enjoy its story.
