There has been a lot of controversy about a young girl posing with her baby boy in a class photo. The school allowed other students to pose with pets, sporting equipment and so on to give a better idea of who the student is. Caitlin Tiller decided if others can bring in pets that they…

I am finished reading another great book called “Snow Escape” by Roberta Goodman.  I have been following her on twitter for a few weeks and I had seen several posts regarding her book.  I sent her a message on Twitter and asked her if I could review her book.  She said, “that she would be honored if I reviewed her book.” This book is full of twists and turns, leaving you wondering where the author is going to lead each of the characters next.

Allegra Maxwell recently was…

The Fast Metabolism Diet Book by Haylie Pomroy arrived at my doorstep on April 23rd, and I spent a day trying to figure out which one of my family members thought I was so fat they needed to send me a diet book. It wasn't until I was checking emails this morning that I realized this book actual arrived courtesy of SheSpeaks, for me to review. I read the front, then the back. Everything looked good so far, then I opened up the…

Are you looking for a great book to read?  Do you like being drawn into a good book that you can’t put down?  Then I highly recommend that you read “Green Lake” by S.K. Epperson.  This book touches on almost every subject that many people have a difficult time understanding or relating to.  These topics include: divorce, alcohol abuse, murders, homicides, racism, suicide, pedophiles, attraction to dead corpses and sexual urges with the corpses, arson, abusive relationships, sexual…

Okay, we have all heard the saying, closet full of clothes and nothing to wear.  Why have we heard it?

Because, at one time or another we have all been standing in the middle of our closets, sweating becasue we have just changed 5 or more times and have 5 minutes to be out the door --  and although the closet…

“Discovering You” is an excellent read and I highly recommend it.  The book is a bit longer than most books and it is divided into three sections.  Once I started reading this book, I could hardly put it down.  It was full of twists and turns which kept the book interesting in its entirety.  The book took place during the winter of 1812 in Southern England in an area called Daleford Manor.  As the book begins, you will learn about Nicholas Davenport and his late wife, Marie, lived at…

I just finished reading “Just Beneath the Surface” by R. H. Ramsey.  This book is rated for a mature audience and shouldn’t be read by someone under the age of 18 due to the graphic nature of this book.  This book was full of twists and turns and there was never a dull moment. This book is filled with suspense, drama, and action that will leave you wanting to read more.

I want to thank Rhonda for giving me the opportunity to review her book.  While…

I have been reading quite frequently these days and wanted to share another great book with my followers.  I downloaded “Long Time Coming” by Edie Claire on e-book and I loved this book from the very start.  Joy decides to return to her hometown of Wharton when her father’s illness forces her to return.  She left the town of Wharton over 18 years ago, shortly after her best friend Jenny was killed in a horrific car accident just a few days after senior prom.  After graduation, Joy high…

I picked up “Love, Charleston” by Beth Webb Hart at book store closing event almost  two years ago.  I finally was able to get a chance to read this book a few weeks ago and thoroughly enjoyed it.  It started out kinda slow in the first chapter but after the first chapter, I was hooked.  After reading the book, I understood why the first chapter was a bit slower than the rest of the book.  The first chapter explained the history of Pastor and Widower Roy Summerall.  It explained why he…

I love cookbooks.  I love big ones, small ones, old and new ones.  And before this starts to sound like a Dr. Seuss book, I’ll add I have all of the above. The oldest one I own is my mother’s cookbook from the 1950’s.  I can’t bear to part with it, but honestly I’ve never cooked a thing from it. I’m not a…
