Book Review: Behind the Scenes by Jen Turano





Behind the Scenes by Jen Turano

This was a rather long book and I enjoyed it more then I thought I
would. The main character Permilia Griswold was fun to read about. She
was very interesting and was strong in faith. She wanted to do what was
right and help others. Her step mother and step sister were not very
nice and yet Permilia had a good attitude about things and didn't let
how they treated her stop her from doing the right things.

Permelia's Dad should of been paying more attention to how his daughter
was treated and also not agreed to not have anything to do with how his
step daughter was raised. She was horrible with throwing tantrums along
with items. She needed to grow up and act decent.

Was happy that Permelia found a man who could love her for who she was
and not for who society wanted her to be. They made a great couple and I
enjoyed reading about their relationship and how it progressed. There
was plenty of humorous things in the book which made for a fun read.

Will enjoy ready more of Jen Turano's books especially if she writes
about some of the other characters from this book.

Thanks to Bethany House for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review!

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats!

New Bedroom Decor!

 Every Year my SIL outdoes herself with the gifts she gave us the year before. This year was no exception! She made this amazing picture for me. If you look close all of the pieces of the heart are small pictures of me and my friends! I was amazed! I still can't get over it! I just love it so much!  So I decided to hang it above my bed. I don't have a headboard and I have really felt like my room was lacking something to pull it together. I think this picture does it nicely! And yes, I sleep with a stuffed animal. I'm single, don't judge! I also sleep with 5 pillows. I tend to fall out of bed. They are like my bumpers! HA! Seriously though I just love it and it's so neat to look at all the pics of different friends and stages in my life and remember all of the fun memories! Thanks Liz!!
