Pilgrim's Progress in Today's English

It's a nice story, it feels a bit too old school but I'm glad I read it. I prefer the first part over the second part and if I were to re-read it (not an impossibility) I'd probably only read the first part.

I don't exactly understand how Beulah Land is supposed to work. It's supposed to be a temporary place until you're called for Heaven but it implies there's no problems there, so isn't Beulah Land essentially Heaven? Wouldn't it make more sense to have a sense of living amongst the sinners or having missions to convert them rather than living in pre-Heaven? I know it's a story but I don't think this aspect really captures the late game of Christianity. It does a great job at describing the early and mid game of Christianity but falls short at the late game, perhaps because the author hadn't reached the late game?

This was also my first Christian book I think and it was enjoyable enough. I'm not sure how many more Christian books I'd read as I have plenty of history books I'd love to read and one should be strategic about what you are reading.
