Rachel's Holiday (Walsh Family #2) by Marian Keyes

Five out of Five Stars! I sat down and open this book. The next thing I know I read the whole entire book. I laughed I cried and I totally enjoyed. It is not just about being an addict, but the process in which Rachel went through to find herself and to understand herself that touched me the most. Even if you are not an addict of some kind, there is a great lesson you can learn from reading this book. Not only that, you would enjoy the pleasure of reading such a well written book by Marian Keyes! Excited to read more of her books!

Rain Song (Heart of Carolina #1) by Alice J. Wisler

Three out of Five Stars The simple lesson that make a huge impact on people's thought process, this is kind of what this book did for me. Rain Song was a slow mellow read, which is good because it gives you time to think about yourself as you read. The past is not easy to face when everything about it, you are unsure. But you will need to put your best foot forward and go for it!

Puss 'N Cahoots (Mrs. Murphy #15) by Rita Mae Brown, Sneaky Pie Brown

Three out of Five Stars A cute book with a mix of the adult world and children's world with the talking animals. I listen to the audio book while I was in the car with my children dropping them off for school or activities or doing my errands. My kids enjoyed the book. However, the hardest part of listening to the audio book was keeping up with who was an animal and who was a human. Over all the plot of the story was a good one. Not on the edge of your seat good, but a simple relax simple read good.

The Choice (Lancaster County Secrets #1) by Suzanne Woods Fisher

Five out of Five Stars I don't tend to give many books all five stars. But this book: "The Choice" I opened the book and with just a few hours I was done reading it. The author did an amazing job to capture the readers attention and keep the readers attention all the way until the end. In the beginning, I asked myself why and how come did Carrie have to go through so much in such a short time. But the lesson that one can gain from this book and the spiritual lesson to gain from it, is amazing. So if you are looking for an amazing read and a comforting story, this is the book for you!

The Secret's in the Sauce (Potluck Catering Club #1)

Three out of Five Stars The Secret's in the Sauce, who wouldn't enjoy a book of a Christian faith and about food! I enjoy becoming apart of each woman's life in the story. I laughed, I cried, and got upset with them through out the book. Fun simply paced book to read. I would suggest this book as a rainy day home read.

Lost & Found (Rocky Pelligrino #1) by Jacqueline Sheehan

Three out of Five Stars I saw many reviews where people said they saw this book as a page turner or they couldn't put the book down. However, I found the story very slow paced from the very beginning till about the end. Then at the last couple of chapters the author finally makes the connection with me where I just had to finish reading the book. The lesson that was taught range from social to personal. But I would suggest this as a good relaxing beach read any day.

ttyl (Internet Girls, The) by Lauren Myracle

Five out of Five Stars I would have never guessed I would have enjoyed reading a book in the style of IM chat. However, I started the book today, and finished the book today. The plot I would have to say is like today society. Unfortunately, the situation that each one of the girls were in are what today day teens girls go though. As I read the book it made me think about how mean girls in High School can be and the repercussion of their actions. With the story so realistic and a simple and easy ready, I enjoyed reading this book from beginning to end.
