You all may have noticed that I did not put up a review for The Fix. This was not a book I was able to enjoy, and chose not to finish reading it. You can read the excerpt, and decide for yourself. You will probably figure out why I didn’t read this book.
This is not a how to grow old gracefully book. It’s about turning back the clock. This is not a do this, do that book. It makes you engage your mind with sections called “Thought for Rejuvenation” and “Act of eXpression.” I’m working my way through Ms Pellicane’s suggestions. I don’t want to be younger, […]
I’m still in the process of reading this book. This is one I didn’t want to rush. Dr. Munroe is giving me an entirely new way to look at authority, and I like it. It’s giving me a feeling of freedom and empowerment. The concept of genuine authority doesn’t control but releases people to exercise […]
This is definitely a yummy book! It takes me back to my grandmother’s when she lived on the farm. This was the first farm. My grandparents later moved into town for a spell before moving back to a different place in the country. Those days in the country created many memories and lots of good […]
This book was featured on September 4th, but I had not had a chance to finish reading it at the time. I knew I could not do justice to a review until it was read. I’ve been a fan of Tim LaHaye’s books for a long time, so I expected this one to be another […]
I was unable to finish this book in time to write a proper review, so I’m going to share some of the reviews around the blogosphere with you. Finding Hope Through Fiction has a good review, as does This That and the Other Thing. Another good one can be found at Window To My World. […]
This book has potential, but as it stands, the three separate story lines bouncing from chapter to chapter leaves a lot to be desired. This book would be better introduced as a book of long “short stories.” I enjoy books written by Christian authors, but do not need a word by word prayer every six or […]

I just read a review on A Book Blogger’s Diary of The Girl Who Stopped Swimming by Joshilyn Jackson. Now I really want to read the book. The heroine, Laurel, “sets out on a life-altering journey that triggers startling revelations about her family’s guarded past, the true state of her marriage, and the girl who stopped swimming.” […]
