I am first and foremost a follower of Christ. In addition, I'm a wife, mother, Nana, homesteader, bargain hunter, and writer. (Not necessarily in that order!) Though I'm a native Texan, I currently live in the Ozark mountains with my husband of thirty years (close to the world's cutest grandson). My first book, Texas Roads, was a 2009 ACFW... more »

    Just like everyone else here, I love to read! It is my ultimate escape, and something which makes me truly happy. I especially like inspiring novels that leave something in my heart and mind after I finish them. But I am open to any kind of book if it draws my attention. I love being part of...

    My review:

    I love books that make me think. This is the type of novels that leaves you pondering things even after you finish the last page. I really liked how the story ended because it brought closure to everything. I also appreciated the realistic struggles that the hero and heroine had. This author does a good job with stirring emotion in the reader and making hearts ache as well as rejoice. There were just enough "we think we've found out what happened" scenarios to make it seem suspenseful, even though it wasn't a suspense novel. There was also a mystery element to the book. It would be hard to sit around waiting when the trail seems to grow colder by the day.

    The questions Mitch asked himself were legitimate ones. How do you know when it's time to let go? How do you get peace in a situation like this? Why did God let it happen and why did it take so long to find out the truth? Well, God knows what he's doing and if we tune into His will, we will find peace and a deeper relationship with Him, but we have to surrender our own plans first. It's really hard to talk about some of the characters' journeys without posting spoilers and this is the kind of book that you don't want to cheat and read the end first.

    Half the beauty of reading the story is not knowing the outcome. The moral and spiritual dilemmas are more complex when the reader doesn't know the future... just like in real life. How many decisions would we change if we knew what the future held? It was a realistic and touching journey for me in that respect. I really enjoyed this story.

    Little over half way through this audio book. Fairly dark in nature, Hazel is an adopted 'Indian' girl of 11 who is 5th grade. Remembering my own 5th grade experience, Hazel is a dedicated day-dreamer. Wow, I cannot wait until this book draws to a conclusion a real cliff hanger.

    Ok, I've finished this awesome audio book. This is a tale that is hard not to relate too. Being almost 70 I remembered back to the time I was 11 and in 5th grade. The struggles you go through, the daydreams you have.

    The Kings and Queens of Roam: A Novel

    Helen and Rachel McCallister are sisters. They only have each other now that their parents are gone. For years Helen has been jealous of Rachel and her beauty.

    Helen and Rachel McCallister are sisters. They only have each other now that their parents are gone. For years Helen has been jealous of Rachel and her beauty. Due to Rachel’s blindness, she can not tell any different what Helen is telling her when she tells Rachel that she is ugly. Helen’s lies grow when she creates this world around Roam filled with flesh eating birds and other monsters. However Helen could never know what her story was actually doing to Rachel until Rachel makes an announcement that will change both of their lives.

    I was curious about this book. I thought I would give it a chance. Wow, I am so glad that I did. I almost missed out on a great book. I found myself not reading this book fast enough. What with life getting in the way!

    I can not imagine depending on someone like Helen. She was so bitter towards Rachel. However I am glad that as the story went on Helen did turn a new leaf and became a better person and one that I actually liked. Due to Helen’s meanness towards Rachel I instantly liked Rachel.

    There are two stories happening in this book. There is the one involving Rachel and Helen and then there is the other one involving Elijah and his slave Ming Kai. This story was just as captivating. It was fascinating to get to learn how Roam was discovered and got to be the place it was. The Kings and Queens of Roam is a book not to be missed! It is filled with lots of wonderful characters and a magical place.

    Juliet Dove, Queen of Love

    Juliet gets an unwanted gift of a cameo necklace with love powers. What normally takes Author B. Coville 100 pages to tell is near 200 pages in this book. Just as delightful and filled with wonder. Great Read!

    The Resurrectionist: The Lost Work of Dr. Spencer Black

    Dr. Spencer Black was a good doctor. His colleagues all respect him. That is until Dr. Black started his own experiments. This book is about Dr. Black and his experiments all the way leading up to his disappearance. In this book are all the pictures of the creatures that Dr. Black was researching.

    This book is creepy but memorizing at the same time. It was like I was really reading the journal of a mad but brilliant man. I say brilliant because Dr. Black although he may have turned into a monster in the name of science he still was trying to further investigate and research all that science had to offer.

    When Dr. Black started creating his own blend of monsters in his lab and the results that was scary. However I was also intrigued by them as well. As you can tell I can not say enough great things about this book. This book needs to be turned into both a big screen movie and television series. Mr. Hudspeth holds nothing back with his first book. I anxiety await his next book. The Resurrectionist is a must read and probably one of the best books I have read in 2013! Don’t walk but run to the bookstore or type as fast as you can online to pick up a copy of this book today.
