Pound Foolish ~ Neta and David Jackson (Book 4 Windy Series)

This is book 4 in the Windy City Series and you will not be let down.  Come join the neighborhood with the Singer family as they face today's issues and complications of today's relationship between husband and wife. 
This book covers faithfulness, obedience and trusting in GOD.  The book has many different situations and circumstances that really happen in today's society, it makes you think. 

 I would recommend this to my girl friends and those that love the Yada, Yada series.  This is a must read for all Neta and David Jackson fans.  Neta  and David do it again!!  Book 5 is coming soon and I am excited as the preview we saw at the end of this book shows us that Estelle is back... for those of us that know the yada, yada series.... yeah!!

My best friends funeral ~ Roger W. Thompson

This is a story about GOD's journey he has for everyone.  The beginning was a little too slow for my reading, but I kept going.  It is the story of how Roger has gone through heartache in his life due to the death of his dad and his best friend.  The story tells of how each person has come and gone in Roger's life.  It teaches you to make everyday and moment count.  Our memories are all we have in life that count in the end.  This story makes you think back to all the good and bad times you have had with friends and family.

I liked the story, it made me think and want to reach out to friends that I haven't spoke to in a long time.  I would recommend this book to those that treasure the day that GOD has made or want to know how to treasure all the moments of the journey he has put us on.

Quilted by Christmas ~ Jodie Bailey

Book 22 of the Quilted book series and another good read.  I really enjoy each of these books as they are not a continued series they are all different stories with all different messages.  This one keeps you turning the pages as it has many twist and turns.  I love how the quilt is the center of the book and the characters from Taryn, Justin and Jemma are all very loveable and makes you cheer for them.  This is a love story and little bit of drama mix.

I would recommend this book as a good afternoon read, just when you want to get away from it all and relax into another world.  This is a story that would be great to read anytime, but where it takes place at Christmas, around the holiday reading it will give you that extra holiday spirit.  This would be a great gift for anyone to read.

Becoming Bea ~ Leslie Gould



This book was interesting to read, not my typical reads as I am not an Amish book reader, I did enjoy this story.  It is the last book in the series "The courtships of Lancaster County", I did not read any of the others in the series and was fine with understanding what was going on.  Bea was a character that you can either be upset with her for being a little selfish or you could have feelings of  sympathy for her having to deal with all the disagreements with Ben.

I would recommend this as a good, relaxing read and if you are an avid Amish reader, read the whole series.  This is the first book I have read from Leslie Gould and she does a great job.  I may read the other 3 books in this series.

The Promise ~ Beth Wiseman


Excellent story, couldn't put the book down.  The cover and back cover do not really give you suspense, drama, love and meaning behind this book.  I am glad that I received this book for review and had to read it... I would not have picked this up in the store to read, due to the description.  However, this is a book that is based on a true story and you don't really know that until you read the end wrap up by the author.  What an adventure, learning experience and it rips your heart out. 

I started this book and couldn't put it down, we lost the power and I was left in the dark very upset because I wanted to know what was going to happen.  Luckily 2 hours later the power came back on and I got out of bed and finished the book.  (of course dead the next day due to lack of sleep).

This story is about a promise that is made to her cousin when they were young to save someone's life.  It is about how love, faithfulness and dedication will determine GOD's way for you.  Keep faith in GOD and you will know his plan for you, even through the fear and heartache, HE will come through for you.

Buy this book, be prepared to read in one sitting.  Buy for all your friends, they will love it!  Best book I have read in a really long time.  Keep thinking of this story line and what she went through  really happens in today's world.   Can't say anything bad, just wish it was a series!! Became attached to the characters, I would love for Beth to write the true story of her friend that this story is based on.

Too Loved to be Lost ~ Debora M. Coty


This is a great book for everyday reading and you can use it as a devotional or when you need GOD's word to get you through your day.  Each chapter describes a story of real life and give you encouraging and inspirational words from GOD. 

I would recommend this book to all my friends at any age.  It is a great book to read at your leisure or use as a daily reading.  I loved each story and how it has GOD all over it from the first page to the last page.
