This is a great book, and is a quick read. It is about a guy named Nick who gets an invitation to have dinner with Jesus of Nazareth at a fancy resturant and thinks that this is a joke from his friends at work. He attends the dinner and keeps looking for his friends to show up and say to him the joke is on you. That doesn't happen at all.... Nick is face to face with Jesus and learning that it isn't about being good in life to get to heaven, it is all about accepting Jesus into your heart. The whole book goes through each coure during dinner (appetizer, dinner, dessert, coffee) and covers different questions that Nick asks at each course. It explains salvation in a way that I never thought of explaining it and uses examples that make you think. This is a great story to use as a tool for bringing people to know GOD and your salvation.
I would recommend reading this and buying it to give out to all your friends and family. It is a really quick and easy read, with a message that following Jesus is the only way to eternal life. As I was reading this book I kept thinking, what if I was in the place of Nick and Jesus was sitting across the table from me? What would I ask and how would I react? As soon as I got done with this book, I handed it to my husband and told him, this is a must read.

Peace from Broken Pieces ~ Iyanla Vanzant
This is the true life story of Iyanla, the women that was once a monthly feature on Oprah to staring in the show Starting Over (helping women change their lives). I starting this book and finished it in 2 days, I couldn't put it down. Iyanla is so honest of her life story and how she has overcome the mistakes she has made in her life. She is not shy to tell of the violence in her childhood and her adult life, teen pregnancy, bankruptcy, cancer, protecting your children and much more. She does not pull any punches in this book, she tells it exactly how it was and is today. She teaches through her heartache of how to look ahead and see how your life is and how you can also work on yourself.
I enjoyed this book tremendously and think all women should treat themselves to this story. It is a great blessing that Iyanla shared her story with all those that are willing to stop and take the time to read.

The Quotable Rogue ~ Matt Lewis
This book is all Sarah Palin in her own quotes and words on all subjects. It is a book that you can use as a reference to what she really believes and for those that do not want to believe she is an honest and patriotic woman. The book covers many subjects: Health Care, Crime, Education, Family, Faith, Tea Party, Tina Fey, Washington and the list goes on. This book has it all, and all from what Sarah is about, everyone should read this book and know that she is good for this country! She is really what America needs to bring back what America is all about.
I enjoyed this book and it is a great reference to use when people are against what Sarah does, believes or has said.
