Book Review: Cooking up a Curveball by Jennifer J. Williams

We are back in the Mile High Series! Or what maybe she be renamed to the Guinea Piggies Parents series. HA! I'd love to know how the love for guinea pigs came about in these books. I find it absolutely hilarious that almost each couple now has piggies of their own and the animals personalities. Love it.

Sunshine and Peaches, which is what I shall refer to them as, were quite the read! It was definitely a bit more *SPICY* than some of her other books, so just as a warning!

The BANTER between these two was epic! I loved the sass back and forth! I loved how Peaches wasn't afraid to speak her mind, especially when Max aka Sunshine was being a grump. He was kind of a jerk at the beginning but like any golden retriever he got his act together and was green flags all around!

This book also dealt with some heavier topics, which I thought Jennifer did a very good job covering it with reality and humanity, and sensitivity. I was proud of Layla for taking back herself and her body and not letting some fictional scumbucket have any power over her.

Its kind of funny, when I was reading this book, I was in the midst of being thrown into a very restrictive low fodmap diet, so I've been researching foods and what I can and can't have and what will be best for my body. It was just a funny timing to then be reading about a nutritionist whose job was to optimize each players health. I actually found that super interesting and was wishing I had a Layla of my own to jazz up my eating plan!

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

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...

45/52

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo! My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable. My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size! Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!! That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

It's me, Charity
