First of many

This is a new adventure for me.  But at the suggestion and urging of my daughter, Tiffanie, here we go.

I'll be reviewing some of the many, many books that I've read, as well as adding some thoughts, Scripture, or sayings that have come my way.

A recent series that held my interest was "Shenandoah Sisters" by Michael Phillips.  The four titles are:  Angels Watching Over Me, A Day to Pick Your Own Cotton, The Color of Your Skin Ain't the Color of Your Heart, and Together is All We Need.

The setting is during and following the Civil War, where a young white girl and a young black girl find themselves alone and frightened.  Together they find the courage and faith to form a friendship and accomplish impossible tasks.  These are rather quick reading and very uplifting.  If you have ever read anything by Michael Phillips, you know that you won't be disappointed.

More reviews to come of the great, the good, and the not so good books that have crossed my path over the last dozen or so years.  So far, that's about eight hundred!  Nearly all are Christian fiction; but I will warn you.  If you have a Kindle and search in that genre, read reviews, because not all books so listed are truly clean, Christian, stories.  I've been disappointed on several occasions.

Quote for the day:  the devil will take you to hell without asking your permission, but Jesus will give you an invitation to go to heaven.

Would love to hear feedback whenever you want.
