The Marriage of Your Dreams

The Marriage of Your Dreams: A Woman's Guide to Understanding Her Man
 The Marriage of Your Dreams is written by Rick Johnson.

This book is very helpful and although written by a man is definitely a perfect book for all married women to read.

This book has lots of helpful tips on how the woman can help her marriage.  There are many books about marriage to read but this book is especially helpful for the wife who wants to make her husband feel like the most important person in her life.

I gave this book 4/5 stars.  I think it is a helpful book to any woman who wants to understand her husband a little better.  It would be a good book to give to a newly married or recently engaged woman.  You may not agree with all that the author says but you have to give him credit for backing up what he says.  I thought he applied scripture and examples very well to get his point across.  Overall it is a helpful book and worth spending your time reading.

I Declare by Joel Osteen Book Review

I Declare by Joel Osteen
 
 I Declare is written by Joel Osteen.

This book is a very simple book with some simple saying to say when you are having a bad day.  It is divided into 31 sections.

Overall this book was good.  I did like the uplifting feel of the book.  If you are feeling discouraged or sluggish in your day to day life, this book will be a great help to you.  I have read most of Joel Osteen’s books and this book is just as good as the others.  If you have not read any of his others this a great book to start with.  He is a preacher that likes to stay positive and this book reflects his style.

I gave this book 5/5 stars.  I thought the words were all uplifting.  I will be keeping this book on my shelf for those days when I need an extra boost of encouragement from the Lord!  This would make a great book for anyone going through a difficult time.

Review of God Loves You

God Loves You: He Always Has--He Always Will
God Loves You is written by David Jeremiah.

Wow what a great book.  Feeling alone or not loved as much as you want?  You can learn so much from this book!

The author, David Jeremiah is a preacher in a church in California.  He does have a television program but this book proves that he is also a great author!  He writes in a very loving manner.  The book flows well and is easy to read and understand.  I liked the references and stories and thought they went perfect with the point he was trying to get across to the reader. 

I gave this book 5/5 stars.  I liked the concept of the book and thought it was well written.  You will put the book down with a better understanding of God’s love and how unconditional it really is!  Understanding God’s love will help you when you do feel alone or don’t feel loved by those close to you.  This is a must read for all Christians!

The Bridge, A Book Review

The Bridge: A Novel

 The Bridge is written by Karen Kingsbury.

I liked this book so much I read it in one sitting!  I liked how the author brought the past and the present together in this short but powerful book.   This story reminds me of a Hallmark or Lifetime Christmas movie.  Two people going different directions in their lives all because of a misunderstanding. 

 This story takes place around the flooding that happened in Nashville.  There are actually four main characters and the story centers on their lives.  The title of the book leads you to believe this story is about an actual bridge but it is not.  The book takes place around a bookstore.  The owners, Charlie and Donna, of the store are dealing with issues of rebuilding their lives after the devastating flood destroyed the business they had built.  The long lost loves, Molly and Ryan, are at a point in their lives that meeting can only mean great changes to their current lives paths.

I gave this book 5/5 stars.  I liked what an easy read this was, how well the author did at keeping it interesting and the great ending!
