Book Review: The Encounter

This book tells the story of a wealthy bussiness man who has it all, you may think but he has an unresolved bitterness. His mother left him when he was four years old and it has ate at him ever since that day. It caused him to push everyone away in his life with his anger issues and he finally had enough and confided in his priest at church to help him. This story tells his journey back to his home land of Alaska from sunny Miami to find his mother and find the truth. He learns a lot on his trip from the help of a new friend in an unlikely place. This book was very well written and is from the heart you can feel the connection to the book and always feel for the characters it was loosely based on two stories and its quite a great read. p.s not a very long book.

Book review: Love You More by Jennifer Grant

Jennifer tells her indept story of the adoption of her guatamalen daughter. This was a very good surprise of a book I was impressed. She is a very talented writer and the way she decribes things are great. She starts from her younger age and tells the story of each of her kids and you can tell how much she loves being a mother. This book would almost make anyone want to be a parent when she talks about all the joys of parenthood. Deffinaly a good read for someone looking to adopt I wish everyone thinking about this would read Love You More it tells the pros and cons and it might not be for everyone. I admire her way to write a lot and draw you in, at the beginning I wasn't sure about the book but by the end I felt like I knew her and her family.

Book Review: Who Is My Shelter?

I reviewed Who Is My Shelter? by Neta Jackson. I wasn't sure about this book at first it was a slow beginning and hard to follow if you havn't read her other books. But after a while you get into the main characters story Gabby. It tells of her struggles in being married and kicked out of her own house and ending up in a homeless shelter. She starts a program to help other mothers in with the same problems in life called the house of hope giving them a place of their own to get back on their feet. Her husband has a gambling problem and is all bussiness they fall apart and seems like there is no hope for them. There are a lot of characters in the book you get to know them and they do a lot of praying to help get through their all the difficulties they have. Over all it was a good book the end is great one of those books where everything comes together good for the older readers.

Book Review: Invasion

This was a surprising book in many ways, I started reading it and wasnt sure if I would like it at all. This book was wrote by J.S. Lewis a comic book writer its the story of a boy Colt who has a dramatic change in his life for the worse. This is a very good book for young readers especially boys, but I also enjoyed it. You start to feel a connection with the main character and feel like you know him and how he feels. The things that happen in this book are things you can only imagine in your wildest dreams. I don't want to spoil the book so I won't go into detail but for someone like me who doesn't like war and sci fi it was still a very good read tell the story of love, strength, and a will to fight for whats right. Over all a good book and a lot of people can get into this kind of book relating in someway.
