The Lost Boys of Barlow Theater by Jamie Jo Wright

Being honest here- I HATE creepy books but I always end up reading the ones by Jamie Jo Wright. I highly recommend her books, but don't read too late at night :) Here's my review: An interesting, eerie, and hauntingly good book. I am not a fan of creepy, eerie books, but somehow, Jamie Jo Wright pulls me in with her amazing writing. There's suspense, intrigue, mysteries, missing people, hidden passageways, and more. The characters are wonderful! Greta won me over with her tenacious spirit. She never gives up. The way Oscar and Eleanor looked out for Greta was endearing. Kit is true blue. A loyal friend willing to go the extra mile. I really liked how each timeline was represented throughout the book. I also liked how some of the characters were grounded in their faith. This book is a reminder that we should be aware that evil exists, but it doesn't have the upper hand.

Becoming Madam Secretary by Stephanie Dray

I really enjoyed this book! It inspired me to research this time period and the people who shaped history then! Here's my review: This is an intriguing and interesting book! Historical fiction is my favorite genre, and this book is captivating. I had never heard of Frances Perkins before. I will definitely be researching her life and the ways that she attributed to politics. She was an amazing woman who sacrificed a lot to help her country. If you read this book, let me know what you think! Jeanette

Until We All Share Joy by Heather Wood

This is a wonderful novella! I was totally captivated by the story in its entirety. The characters are relatable and easy to like. Titan is my favorite! His compassion and gentleman-like ways are endearing. He grows so much during the book and he also helps others grow. Grandfather Gates is wonderful! He appears gruff and grouchy but he has a heart of gold. This book helped me to remember how blessed I am to have a family that loves me and to cherish every moment with them. I can't wait to read the rest of the books in the series!

The Higher Desire Wife by J Parker

There's a lack of Christian books available to review on Library Thing so this is one that I chose to win. It's pretty explicit in some areas, some of it actually made me blush. Here's my review: I found this book to be interesting and informative! This book outlines helpful information for women whose sexual drive is higher than their husbands. The author provides hope, advice, and even scriptures to help women as they walk this path. I found a lot of wisdom and practical ways to apply this information in my own life. I won this book from Baker Books via LibraryThing!
