Image
Thoughts: Hello everyone!! I hope you're having a lovely day!  I'm here today with Plan to Fail, the second book in the Accidental Cases of Emily Abbott series.

  Hello folks! Today we're doing something a tad bit different, for a few reasons. First of all, I had some people tell me that it would be cool if Wisteria Lane had some book related posts that weren't book reviews. And second, this was quicker than a full book review which was necessary for reasons that will be stated after the tag. And I get to tell y'all about more than one book at once!! So, we're here today with a book tag! *cheering*  I stole  found this tag from Lizzy at A Bit of Everything . And she got it from Tori at Sweet Obsession . Both of which are amazing blogs. Go, shoo, take a look at them. Then come back.  Alright, let's get started!!  ___________________________________ "Cinderella," a book that changed your life:  To me, this is a no brainer.

Book Review #13 - Sunrise

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...
