Falling Away - By By T.L. Hines

At first I was not sure about this book. But after a few pages I felt like I knew the characters. They became my friends. I felt like I had a vested interest in them as real people. Quinn, an "embedder" who was homeless for years and whose mother disppeared became this girl that I was rooting for. Dylan is running from his past joins the military to fill a void in his life. It is a book that touches you spirit and makes you question things in your own life. It is a great book and I would recommend it to all. I received this book free to read and review and express my opinion.

The Long Way Home - Andrew Klavan

Take Your Best Shot by Austin Gutwein w/Todd Hillard

It is definitely geared towards the younger generation. The author often talks directly to them, telling them that although they are young, they can make a difference. As an adult I too understand that I can make a difference too although we sometimes forget that. We are too concentrated on the day in and day out of our own lives that I think this is a good family read. I hope it challenges each person who reads it and changes how we all think. We are a community that can help each other in so many ways if only we seek out the possibilities.

Find Your Strongest life by Marcus Buckingham

Find Your Strongest life by Marcus Buckingham was a book that I felt had some great points but also had many low points. There are great points in this book for women everywhere. He says that moments matter most. They matter more than dreams, goals, values or relationships. He says that we need to focus on our strengths and pursue our strengths – well yes I already knew that. I feel that I would have opened my arms wider for this book if it had been written by a woman. How does he know what it is like to walk in a woman’s shoes. He doesn’t know firsthand and that is why I would look for another book to read next time.
