Brenda Roberson Since Darlene couldn't locate the book I picked for her she gave me a new list to choose from. The new book I picked was Her Mother's Hope by Francine Rivers. It is a wonderful book that I have already read (plus read the others in the series). I gave it 5 stars. Hope you enjoy it Darlene.

Jessie Cumpson | 233 comments I tried to pick Larica's name to add the title but It would not let me.
Thanks

Oh Jessie that is ok, that is something that Linda needs to do since she posted that post herself. We can only edit our own posts. So you are good and Linda will add it but thank you so much for trying.

Hello Jessie,

Larica is a co-worker of mine, Where did you choose this book from, i don't see it on her to be read list??? Books must be chosen from the to be read list or a list designated by that person..She isn't on line here very often, so i went check it out to see her list and didn't see anything by Elizabeth Adler.. Unless you messaged her and spoke to her that i don't know.. Thanks, have a great day :)

That's ok Jessie, if you too talked about it.. I know she had told me she hasn't updated her list, so a lot of the books on her list she may have read already, cuz i know she reads a lot. But i will put up Easy and see if she has read that one or not.. If she has i will put up your first suggestion since her list is not up to date. Thanks, have a great day.

Oh sorry Veronica the challenge has been closed, Hope you will join us next month for this challenge. And the way it goes is the person above your name chooses a book from your to be read shelf or if you have a designated shelf to tell them to choose from, and then you would choose a book for the person below your name. We do this challenge every month so hope you will join us in October.

Darlene picked for me "An Amish Miracle" by Beth Wiseman, Ruth Reid and Mary Ellis. I finished reading the book this evening and I have to say that I really enjoyed the book a great deal. I laughed at a few places and cried in quite a few places as well. I am glad that I read the book.

To read my review you can go to https://www.goodreads.com/review/show.... I gave it 5 stars.


message 65: by Brenda (new)

Brenda Roberson Just finished my "Pick It For Me" selection made by Linda. It was a wonderful read with just a couple of things to mention that are an aversion. As good as the HIDDEN PLACES is, for me, some of the chapters were so very long that it felt like they would never end. I prefer short, to the point, chapters. Also be aware that this is a first person book and depending on the section, you must keep in mind who the "first" person is, which some people cannot abide but to me is insignificant. That being said I still give the book 5 stars for its wonderful storyline and wish I was able to give it more. All in all I highly recommend reading it.

Noel Arndt Caryl | 58 comments Thank you Rita for my September book. I like Nicholas Sparks a lot and I enjoyed this story thoroughly. And I was pleasantly surprised that I didn't bawl through the last part of his book like I have been known to do. The Longest Ride was a story told from three of the main characters point of view, and sometimes looking at the same situation. Thank you again Rita!!

Sorry you did not like the book.

message 84: by Brenda (new)

Brenda Roberson I would highly recommend the rest of the series. For anyone interested it is called Marta's Legacy by Francine Rivers. Good Christian author.


message 85: by Brittany (new)

Brittany I am currently reading my pick it for me pick, A Miracle of Hope by Ruth Reid. It is really good so far and I will post my review when I am done.

Ok so i finished my pic Unlocked by Karen Kingbury.

I am an absolute fan of Karen Kingsbury, But for me this book was slow at the beginning and it took me a long time to get into the story. It's not one of my favorites by her. At a little over half i was more into it. So i rated it 3 stars. Don't know why it just wasn't for me. But i did finish it, because i want to read all of her books.


message 87: by Brittany (new)

Brittany Loved my September pick it for me book. I read A Miracle of Hope (The Amish Wonders, #1) by Ruth Reid A Miracle of Hope by Ruth Reid.
