I’ve been thinking about this sort of thing as well. There are lots of books published by creationists and I am sure they are quite compelling (I haven’t actually read those either), otherwise they wouldn’t write those. Essentially, reading someone’s summary is again putting yourself into the hands of whoever wrote it. If they have an agenda, you’ll likely end up believing it. So, really, you need to read both sides, compare their arguments, etc. Lots of work.
