The Blessing Giving the Gift of Unconditional Love and Acceptance By John Trent & Gary Smalley

The Blessing Giving the Gift of Unconditional Love and Acceptance By John Trent & Gary Smalley

This book delivers a powerful message. I think I related to the book most as the last few chapters really did hit home for me. I always shrived for my mother and grandmother’s approval, but it was always hard to maintain it-I can understand this book so clear and perfectly. It’s a great set up for new parents or even someone going through a struggle with their own parents/family member. It’s a good book to read. I received this book from Nelson’s Publishing in exchange for an honest review, all opinions stated are my own and I was not required to write a positive review.

The Quotable Rogue The Ideals of Sarah Palin in Her Own Words By Matt Lewis

The Quotable Rogue The Ideals of Sarah Palin in Her Own Words By Matt Lewis

For a political book I was on the fence even reading it-but the writer did a good job showing Sarah in a new light. He addresses certain issues that Palin has brought to our attention; and they are important issues at that. I think the writer had some strong views, and the book didn’t fall short. It’s a book that’s meant for the politician to be seen in a new light-and this book certainly provides it. It covers deep issues America has-and ways to solve them, unfortunately it will take more than just a motivational speaker and words to make it happen. I received a copy of this book free from book sneeze, all opinions written are my own and I was not required to write a positive review.

The Waiting Place Learning to Appreciate Life's Little Delays By Eileen Button

The Waiting Place Learning to Appreciate Life's Little Delays By Eileen Button is a book that is worth reading! Appreciating life through the time of waiting. This book is one to read if maybe you’re not the most patient person. I enjoyed this book greatly, it’s taught me the fine value of finding thought through time. I recommend this one to read as it is very good-the author speaks her thoughts clearly and the book makes sense; I took it as a more of a guideline to patience then anything. I received this book free from book sneeze in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own and do not interfere with any guidelines.

Jesus, My Father, The CIA, and Me By Ian Cron

Jesus, My Father, The CIA, and Me By Ian Cron

The description of this story is what caught my attention; imagine at only the young age of sixteen being told your father worked for the CIA, and nothing was what it seems. Ian’s story is both touching and heartbreaking; but to come over odds and break through-it takes strength and his story definitely has that. I read this as like I said-the title caught my attention, I managed to read this book in one day, and I can for surely say, you won’t be disappointed. Reading someone’s biography is always fascinating; this one is no different. The book is a real roller coaster, and one you should read. I received this book in exchange for my review. All thoughts in here are entirely my own, as I was not required to give a positive review in exchange for the book.

The Seraph Seal

The Seraph Seal is based on the book of revelation, a very fascinating novel with a great plot and an epic tale told through a smooth plot. The book starts out in 2048, the earth is dying; closing in on itself from centuries of abuse. Through a freak finding, Paul Binder finds a note addressed to him in a car accident outside his Virginia home; leading him on an adventure that he would not soon forget. He finds himself on a search for the horsemen; leading him to wonders he would ever only imagine. The characters and description was amazing; you find yourself reading fast; to catch up with the action-putting you right there in the story. It was a great read and one that I would read again! I got this book free from booksneeze in exchange for giving an honest and trustworthy review. If you like fast paced action packed books-this is the one to read!

The Skin Map (Trade Paper) By Stephen Lawhead

The Skin Map (Trade Paper) By Stephen Lawhead is one of those books that holds so much suspense that you really can’t put it down; the cover is what caught my attention; and I have to say I wasn’t disappointed in the least! The plot was picked up fast pace-while the characters were written so flawlessly that I almost believed they were real. It kept me in suspense up to the last chapter (and I finished this book in less than a day) that’s how amazingly flawless and well written it was! The plot had no visible holes and the author showed skill and perfection to each page, each scene-each chapter. Making it an amazing book. I loved the illustration for the cover; and the way each character and conflict were resolved. I definitely have to recommend this book! I will make sure that my friend (who also loves to read) reads this. She doesn’t have an account here but I think she’ll get one, once she sees what kind of books there are! I received this copy free from book sneeze for exchange for a review of the product. These words are solemnly my own and I did not have to leave a positive review.
