Say Yes to the Holiday Cookies

The ultimate Holiday Cookie Book has arrived.  My favorite part of the book is that it uses normal easy to find ingredients. There are color photos on every page and my daughter and I struggled to decide which ones to make first.  You will LOVE adding this to your cookbook collection. 

Deal or Duel - For History Buffs

My daughter-in-law is a big history buff.  I knew this game would appeal to her.  Since she works in the history department at the local college she was super excited to take this to work and play with the students. I know it will get tons of use there! Great Idea !!

I was given this in exchange for a fair and honest review.

White Fur

From the description I was hoping for a story I could dive into and travel to another time and place.  I struggled thru the first few pages and wasn't interested.  I set it down.  Read another book.  Willing to try again, I started from the beginning again.  Still I could not stick with it.  Sometimes a book just isn't your style.  This wasn't mine.  I will share with my little free library readers. 

The Heirs

I honestly tried to get involved and interested in this book but it just wasn't for me.  I usually try to give a book the first 100 pages till i give up.  Wasn't going to happen this time.  I felt like the characters didn't come alive for me.  I struggled with some of the words.  Overall just not my type of book.  I put this book out in the little free library at the office where I work.  I am sure someone will fall in love with it!

I was given this book for free in exchange for a fair and honest review.

Here and Gone - Haylen Beck - Your summer read - Thank me later

I just finished Haylen Beck's new novel Here and Gone.  He had me at chapter one.  I haven't had a book that had my attention like this in awhile.  It was gripping, suspenseful, and had my heart pumping a few times.  The characters were intense and the story drew you in.  I am headed to the library today to look for more books by this author. By the way I have already picked out actors to play the parts of Whiteside, Collins, Mitchell, Audra and Danny in my head.  Maybe even Mrs. Gerber.  Would make a fantastic thriller movie !!

Braving It - James Campbell

Some people are parents and some people "parent".  James Campbell introduces his daughter to Alaska in such a way that you just know his daughter Aidan will grow up to be a strong, independent and responsible woman.  His biography of their unforgettable trips to the most remote parts of Alaska is riveting. His descriptions of the landscape, hunts and living quarters give you such a clear image you almost shiver feeling the temperatures he describes.  My only wish is that there were more photos included.  I will look for his other books to add to my must read list.

Roadfood - A must have for the car!

I recently received a free copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review. I have a friend who will absolutely love this book.

The book gives you great information on the favorites of the locals.  Don't expect fine dining or 5 star restaurants here.  This is the good food.  Roadfood.  Comfortfood.  This will be great for road trips or even day trips!  Loan it to a friend, give it as a gift.  A fun book for everyone.
