Book Review #13 - Sunrise

Image
Thoughts: *bounces in, clutching book to chest* GUYS!  *calms down* So, I'm here to introduce you to one of my favorite authors ever. Yes, you're probably thinking something along the lines of "she's a book lover, so how many favorite authors does she have?" The answer to that: quite a few. But, Grace Livingston Hill actually is near the top of that long list of favorites.  Sunrise is such a good story! It's theme of trusting God during difficulties was a super helpful reminder for me in the last few years. I picked it up about 3 years ago, right when I first needed that reminder. I just read it once more, without remembering the storyline, and discovered it was exactly the reminder I needed.  I wouldn't say Sunrise is my favorite of Grace Livingston Hill's books, but it's still such a beautiful story. Anyway, you've heard my ramblings. Now for the rest of the review! Author: Grace Livingston Hill Genre: Romance/Historical Fiction/Mystery/Chris...

Book Review #5 - Red Rover Red Rover

  Thoughts: *clears throat* Sooo it's been a little bit. I did not forget about my blog, but I barely had time to breathe the last year. But we're back! And hopefully going to have regular book reviews! somebody scream at me if I stop posting again . And now, onto the review.  Wow. This book has been on my TBR list for years. I finally put it on my birthday wish list a few months ago. Low and behold, someone bought it for me! Since then, I've read it. Reread it. And rereread it. Saying it is amazing is not enough. I could go scream its name from the rooftops. But I'm an introvert so we're not doing that.  I loved all the codenames, the intrigue, the mystery, and the comedy! It is so wonderful to have a spy/comedy novel that is Christian and clean! It's like a breath of fresh air.
