Book review for the last girl
I was anxious to get this one. I love true stories about people who have lived through hard times and lived to tell about it. The last girl wont let you down. It takes you deep inside the world of things we dont understand or maybe have anything to do with. It is here where you realize how strong this woman really is. This story will grip you, move you, touch you and draw you to tears, the things endured by the human spirit is amazing.

Book review for color index xl
I got this book as a gift for someone who is all into painting and everything color. When asked if the book was good or did it help the answer was OF COURSE! I found out that mixing of colors is crucial in media and this handy book helps you see what colors come from what and it covers it all. I recommend this book for any paint or other mixed media fans you have.

Review for A Prairie Girls Faith
I love anything Laura Ingalls Wilder. I used to and still do watch the how and I have read all her books. I know Laura had a deep faith but this book really takes you inside her persona; journey and shows you just how important faith was to Laura. Fantastic read for any girl of any age.

Review for The Daily Question
I was not overly happy with this book review and the reason being is that the book is way too small. I expected a bigger book. This book is small and so is the daily writing space. I thought it was more of a journal. Each day has a nice quote and then you are too write ytour thoughts down but the alloted space is not enough. I think this would be good for a one liner person.

Review for A box of awsome things mathching game
I have 3 grandkids ages 12,10 and 5 and they all loved this even though the gap between 12 and 5 is big. My little grandson caught on right away. Fantastic tool for smaller kids to have fun and improve their memory. The 12 yr old even loved it. This challenges the kids to concentrate and try to remember where they are going to make their matches. I would highly recommend this for kids of all ages.

Book review for colored pencil painting portraits
This book is a great tool for anyone diving into pencil crayon work. I think it is ok for beginners and further advanced artists. The portraits may look like things you cant do but the tutorial in the book helps you along with guides and techniques. I got all I could out of the book and will hand it down to my step daughter who will make great use out of it.

book review for shattered
If you want a good political read look no further. I don't get too involved with politics because it give me a headache. This book digs into the what went wrong scenario. It gives you a better understanding of how her team thought, what they did right and what the did wrong. admitting defeat is not easy and that is clear here. An insightful look into the triumph of good speeches and the let downs of those not so great. This is almost a tell all book which signifies the changing times. We get an inside look at speech writers and the consultants and aids who surround HC. All in all a oretty solid read.

Book review for The Gatekeepers
This is an absolute fantastic history read. I love anything history and this fit the bill. It's a walk through time and history via each sitting President. It does not matter what side of the Isle your on it's about the work these men do on a daily basis. So much more than just someone who works with the President. Their jobs, ideas, commitments, the amount of time and energy needed to do what they do. A must read for all history lovers.

Book review for Life after heaven
A must read ! If you believe in visiting heaven or going to heaven or heaven period, read this ! I love the actual account of his visit, a glimpse into maybe what we can expect when we go there. I think the visit shows us how our attitude changes changed once we see the other side.

Book review for Before I Forget
This deeply moving and soul touching book is an eye opener, especially for anyone directly dealing with this horrible disease. B and Dan open up their hearts and bear their souls. Fear lives among them and is very real but in the face of that fear they push through. The daily challenges they both have to endure are met head on. I strongly urge anyone dealing with Alzheimers to dig into this one.
