I have been a reading machine lately, it is a very relaxing gesture to unwind from a crazy busy day at work. I recently picked up a few books that I have been dying to read. As a teacher, I find it exciting to read about different cultures, languages and world views.
Dangerous Refuge Elizabeth Lowell
A gripping murder mystery ending in romance. This novel was a great read and kept me on my toes. With entertaining sass, Lowell intertwines danger, deception and edge as she writes about the mysterious death of a small town rancher. With the ranchers nephew coming to settle his belongings, a local woman waltzes in to show him exactly who is uncle was and how he reminds her of the man he is supposed to be.
The Magnolia Story Chip and Joanna Gaines w/ Mark Dagostino
An elegant biography written by husband and wife team Chip and Joanna Gaines. The story is a wonderful reflection of their personal journey in marriage, children, family, starting their businesses, and growing into the hit T.V. show known as Fixer Upper. With their faith in the Lord and support of one another, their dedication for following their dreams comes alive in this novel. With hilarious interjections from Chip, Joanna playful writes about their story of becoming entrepreneurs and designers.
Two by Two Nicholas Sparks
A beautifully written story about a man’s journey from a put-together life (a great job, a beautiful wife, and a young daughter) to becoming a single dad raising his daughter alone, starting his own business and overcoming the absence of a wife who left him) Nicholas Sparks once again delivers with a a tale that pulls at your heartstrings. #20YearsofSparks
Uninvited Lysa TerKeurst
I simple twist on the “self-help” book that inspires and encourages all who read it. A daily inspirational read about overcoming loss and rejected that looks deep into your spiritual soul with biblical gut-wrenching honesty. A wonderful read about personal battle with abandonment and how rejection can poison the soul. From New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst “reminds us we are destined for a love that can never be diminished…” (back cover review)
