Book Review: "Everyday Astrology" by Gary Goldschneider
Back in high school, I was all about my horoscope and Astrology. I was really into it and it was always on target for me. After reading a few bad (way off) horoscopes, I stopped following them so when I heard about the new book by Gary Goldschneider, “Everyday Astrology” I was skeptical. I am […]
Book Review: "What Difference Do It Make: Stories of Hope and Healing" by Ron Hall and Denver Moore
Now when I heard about “What Difference Do It Make?” by Ron Hall and Denver Moore, I was curious. I remember their first book “Same Kind of Different As Me” and remember how well it did. I always am curious about bestsellers because if that many people like it, then it must be good. Now […]

Since I don’t get out much to go see movies, actually we don’t get to go out really at all to the movies since we had kids, I read a lot. I usually end of loving the book over the movie version anyway, so I don’t mind. Well the book “Julie & Julia” by Julie […]
Book Review & Giveaway: "Defending College Heights" by Stuart Nachbar (Ends 10/1)
Mystery books are my favorite genre. I just love when a book is suspenseful and not obvious as it really keeps me reading. My husband makes fun of me as if I really get into a book, I will literally walk around the house and read a page here and there, because of course with […]
