Up The Down Ladder, by Dolores Ayotte/ Five Star Review!

♥♥♥♥♥ Although this book was meant to be a self-help sort of thing for people with depression, I found that I was able to take a lot out of it. I do not suffer from depression, but rather, severe anxiety issues. Many of the issues discussed in this book hit home hard for me. I’ve …

Poetically Baring My Soul, by Jerald Brown/Three Star Review

♥♥♥ Poetically Baring My Soul was both good and bad. The bad was that I did not think the way that the poems were written were the best that they could be. The poets word usage and form were a bit unappealing. I appreciated his striving towards placing the beauty and mercy of God into …

Rikke and the Lost Viking, by Nikolina Nilsen/Four Star Review

♥♥♥♥ This is a very cute book about a little troll who finds a lost viking. The little troll is at first afraid of the viking, but then tries to help this lost person of history in finding his way back. The moral of the story is very clearly understood, which I feel is always …

Orangey The Goldfish, by Eddie Bee and Teri Lee/Four Star Review

♥♥♥♥ The book wasn’t exactly what I was expecting, and at first, I was hesitant. It seemed s though it would be yet another one of those corny, over-rated children’s books that all parents are well accustomed to. This was not the way it ended up turning out for us, however The story ended up …

The Shopping List- What’s On Yours?

Lost and Alone (Cougar Cub Tales), by Sharon Cramer/ Five Star Review!

♥♥♥♥♥ This is the second ‘Cougar Cub Tales’ book that I have read, and I enjoyed this one even more than the first. My daughter really enjoyed it, and was pulled into the story. She pointed things out, and enjoyed the smooth rhyming that takes you along the story. The story is very cute in …

Where Hummingbirds Come From, by Adele Marie Crouch/ Three Star Review

♥♥♥ The story was very cute, and both my daughter and I enjoyed it. I would actually rate it 3.5 stars, but obviously I’m unable to do that here. Although the story was very cute, it read just a little ‘broken’ for lack of a better word. I think mostly I tripped over all of …

Barely Breathing, by Heather Allen/Three Star Review

♥♥♥ As usually happens with follow up books, I preferred the first installment in this series. It was still a really good book and it played the story out very well. It was well-written and engaging, but I couldn’t help but feel the ending was a bit hectic, and I would have liked it better …
