My Review:
I thought this book was neat because it was all about Holidays which I love! Holidays are the best because you have a reason to have a party to celebrate. A chance to get with your family and have a great time. This book is great because there are many ideas to help with family gathering. There were a lot of recipes that went with each holiday. I liked reading all of the different stories from the authors about the traditions in their families. This book was great and I give it a 5 out of 5 stars.

~Book Review~ “Sex and the Single Christian Girl” by Marian Jordan Ellis
Goodreads Synopsis:
“True love waits”–but what exactly are you waiting for? After all, we’re constantly bombarded with Hollywood’s idea of romance–that sex is no big deal, that everyone is doing it, that it’s the only path to a happy ending. Maybe you’ve even begun to wonder, What am I missing? Is the wait really worth it?
Marian Jordan Ellis has been there. She knows the pitfalls of giving in to temptation–but also the blessings of God’s best found in waiting after she committed herself to Christ and to sexual purity. Now, from one Christian woman to another, she hopes to spare you from the heartache of sexual sin and instead point you toward God’s best. Marian offers lots of practical advice, backed by biblical truth, to equip you with the tools to overcome past mistakes and future temptations.
You are cherished. Whether you are happily single, casually dating, or have found “the one,” your purity is worth fighting for.
My Review:
When I first seen the title of this book, I thought why would there be a book with this title. Shouldn’t the inside cover be blank? Then I realized that Marian Jordan Ellis was trying to explain her struggles and how Christian girls still have struggles when it comes to Purity. With every media outlet pushing sexual desires at our generation no wonder many Christian girls don’t have more problems than they actually have. I loved how the author put quotes from popular movies into the book to show girls that there are actually good quotes that come from the movies, but that you should be careful what you watch. Living in today’s world is hard and I think that every girl and mother should read this book. I give this book a 5 out of 5 stars.

~Book Review~ “Blessings for the Evening” by Susie Larson
Goodreads Synopsis:
Be Blessed Tonight
Feel the concerns of your day fade away through the reassuring promises of God. These blessings offer refreshment to your soul and a biblical perspective to your thoughts.
Borne from Susie Larson’s own bouts with nighttime worries, each blessing and related Scripture is a daily, soothing reminder of God’s love and mercy.
“May the Lord show you His favor and give you His peace.”
My Review:
Blessings for the Evening was a great book! Every night I have read one of the “blessings” that are in the book. Each and everyone of them spoke to my heart when I read them. Susie Larson definitely is great at taking Bible verses and putting a devotion with them that helps with everyday life. I looked forward to reading each of the blessings every night with my daily bible reading before I went to bed. I give this book a 5 out of 5 stars.
