Kindle Report~How To Find Free Kindle Books

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

James and I got a Kindle Touch for Christmas. I seem to be using it more than he does, but he’s interested at least. I’m the bigger reader around here.I wanted to get it to encourage him to read a little bit more–we’ll see if my plan worked. I’m reading more at least! (haha not [...]

Unhallowed Ground~Book Review

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012

Earlier this year, I reviewed my first book by Mel Starr–A Trail of Ink. You can read that here. Kregel Publications offered his next book for review and I decided to join in. I received Unhallowed Ground and dug in. Normally, I read female authors, but I liked his last book. This one is good [...]

The Money Saving Mom’s Budget~Book Review & Giveaway~Closed

Friday, January 6th, 2012

I was privileged to be able to review an advanced copy of Crystal’s new book! How exciting!!! I’ve been one of Crystal’s readers since before she was Money Saving Mom. I know she won’t want me gushing about her here–but it’s my blog so I will! A very long time ago, when she and Jesse [...]

The Love & Respect Experience~Booksneeze Review

Monday, January 2nd, 2012

I received a copy of this devotional from BookSneeze. I haven’t read any of Dr. Eggerichs other Love and Respect books although I’ve heard really good things about them. As you may know, Lee and I have been through the wringer in our marriage. This past year since he’s been able to live at home [...]

My Favorite Childhood Book

Friday, November 4th, 2011

  When I was 3, I received Beth’s Happy Day for my  birthday. I loved this little book about a little girl who shared her birthday happiness with her neighbors. Somewhere along the line in our multiple moves, Beth’s Happy Day got thrown away lost. I remember realizing my book was gone and being so [...]

The Baker’s Wife~Erin Healy~ Book Review

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011

Since I LOVE books, I’m always looking for good authors. When LitFuse Publicity offered to review The Baker’s Wife, I said, “Sign me up!” Disclaimer: I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my review. The Baker’s Wife used to be a Pastor’s wife but a lie ended her husband’s ministry and [...]

Refuge On Crescent Hill by Melanie Dobson~Book Review

Thursday, October 27th, 2011

I received a free copy of this book from Kregel Publications to review on my blog. As you can tell by the number of reviews I had last week, I got a little bit behind! I just finally picked this up last weekend and I’m hooked! It took me just a little bit to get [...]

Apologia~Educating the WholeHearted Child~TOS Crew Review

Sunday, October 23rd, 2011

I mentioned before that I prayed about this school year. How to do things better–how to reach the heart of my child–how to ignite a love for Jesus in his still young heart. Last year was really rough schoolwise. Lee just came home –or at least was able to be around–right after school started. I [...]

Surprised By Oxford~Book Review

Sunday, October 16th, 2011

I chose Surprised By Oxford from Thomas Nelson’s Book Sneeze program. I read a review and it sounded good, so I thought I’d give it a chance. Then it arrived and sat on my shelf. I wondered, “WHY did I choose that book?” The way Book Sneeze works is that I can’t pick a new [...]

Christian Authors

Wednesday, September 28th, 2011

My friend asked me what Christian fiction authors I like. I’ve been meaning to get her a list and just haven’t done it yet. I’m going to list some of mine. If one you like isn’t on here feel free to add them in the comments. Some I may just not personally care for or [...]
