Review of The Full Armor of God

The Full Armor of God by Larry Richards

I gave this book 4/5 stars.  I have read many books on how and why a Christian should put on armor before facing the day filled with attacks by Satan.  This particular book had some great tips on why but fell flat on most everything else.  Now this is just my opinion, you may really enjoy the book and walk away with more than I did.  I did like the ample amount of scripture references used and thought the author was very open when talking about his own life.  That said, the book was just OK for me and not one I will read again.

I would like to thank the publisher for the copy of this book I enjoyed reading.  I gave an honest review based on my opinion of what I read.

ROTB: Double Crossed

Double Crossed

Review of Teen Book Double Crossed by Disney

This is a short book and definitely worth your time reading.  I gave this book 4/5 stars.  I have not read any other book by this author so felt a little lost during parts of this story.  The story itself was entertaining and held my interest.  I thought the characters had appeal and I look forward to reading other books about them.  I would recommend this book to the younger teenage crowd as it is a quick and easy to read story.

ROTB: Fairest Beauty

The Fairest Beauty  -

Review of Teen Book Fairest Beauty

This is an excellent Christian teen book!  I gave this book 5/5 stars.  I enjoyed the story especially since you do not see many Christian books written with settings like this one or even in the time period as this one.  I thought the authors’ descriptions and conversations were incredible and they really helped this book be more enjoyable.  I even liked the characters as they showed real human characteristics and emotions.  I would recommend this book to any Christian teenager to read, they will really enjoy it!

Review of No More Perfect Moms

No More Perfect Moms: Learn to Love Your Real Life

Wow what a powerful book for all mothers to read and learn from!  The author, Jill Savage, has written other great books but this one is by far her best one yet!  I gave this book 5/5 stars.  There are many examples and illustrations that will make you laugh and even some that will bring a tear to your eye.  They are each perfect for the topic the author is discussing.  Every mom should read this book and then go out and buy all their mom friends the book!  I thought the author did an excellent job of showing all moms that no one is perfect and we all just do the best we can!  I would recommend this book for every mother, no matter what age your children are!

Review of Lifelong Love Affair

Lifelong Love Affair: How to Have a Passionate and Deeply Rewarding Marriage

The subtitle to the book explains exactly what you will take away from this book if you take the time to read it. The subtitle says “How to have a passionate and deeply rewarding marriage.”  I gave this book 5/5 stars.  I thought the purpose of the book was well thought out and followed through on.  I liked the examples and stories chosen to highlight a principle the author was presenting.  I especially enjoyed the way the book was written.  I did not feel preached to in any way!  It was written from one friend who has learned ways to enhance a marriage and given to anyone who wants their marriage to grow in the Lord.  I would recommend this book for all engaged and married couples.

ROCB: Secondhand Horses

#3: S.A.V.E. Squad Series Book 3: Secondhand Horses:  -     
        By: Lauraine Snelling, Kathleen Wright

Review of Childrens Book Secondhand Horses

This is book 3 in the S.A.V.E. Squad Series.  You do not have to read the others in the series to enjoy this one but I would recommend them!  You will get to know the characters better and I think enjoy the story even more.  This series is great and will hold your attention.  Each book is easy to follow with a simple story. This particular book is wonderful at showing not everyone or everything is perfect.  I thought the writing style was easy to understand and the story moved quickly.  I would highly recommend this series for any young Christian girl looking for books that teach values and team work.
