That Perfect Someone by Johanna Lindsey

I have loved the Malory family since I first read George and James story, many years ago. This book did not disappoint me at all, the Malory’s and the Anderson’s are present and in fine form. The main character’s Richard and Julia are likable and believable.  They also show that you really need to look at the other persons side of… [Continue Reading]

I liked this book, in a lot of ways because I can relate to Lisa and how she kept a large part of herself hidden away from her *friends*. I always looked at is as you have school friends, you have neighborhood friends, you have friends for different activities. But none of those friends really… [Continue Reading]

This is one book that I know I tried to read before, and I  do believer that I did get further this time. The concept for this book is a good one, orphaned kids taken in by Thief master and  trained to be a thief. But for some reason the changing time when Locke was a boy… [Continue Reading]

Scars and Stilettos by Harmony Dust

This was a hard book to read.  To realize that this was in fact a true story of a real person is unsettling.  That a person could believe that they have no choice but to sell themselves, to earn a living in such a way as an exotic dancer.  I feel so much sympathy for them,… [Continue Reading]

I really liked this book, now I  do not 100% agree with all of the information in this book- but do you ever in any book that is based on some one else’s opinions.  I do think a lot about the things that Dr Dobson addresses in this book.  Girls today are so different than girls from… [Continue Reading]

I really enjoyed this book.  The time period is post World War II, and takes place in what was Hitler occupied Germany. The characters are very likable, and you just can not help caring what happens to them. The mystery and suspense that surrounds the disappearance of Betty’s  new friend Kat is bond to keep… [Continue Reading]

The Flowering Cross by Beth Ryan

This was a very nice book to read to my almost 5 year old daughter.  She enjoyed the big colorful pictures, and the story was something that she could understand and relate to. This book is a beautiful children’s story about how a little girl’s love can impacts a crotchety neighbor’s heart for Christ.  By… [Continue Reading]
