Based on the story of Isaac and Rebecca, Kara goes into a house filled with girls all trying to be a costar in news channel for teens, the costar a secret.  But when her dad takes a turn for the worse she must choose between her dream and being with her dad.  Kara along with her friend Addy, find out what the most important things in life are and have a bunch of fun doing so, And about  that secret star well with parents who are very protective things get a little complicated but no one feels the need to compromise there beliefs and guidelines.
Everything you could want in a book The sequel to “ First Date”  Kristi Mcgee out did herself. Filled with Action, Acting, romance, and most importantly Faith. I personally Loved this book and didn’t want it to end.  But when it did end I couldn’t have been happier with it. I definitely would recommend this book to everyone including but not limited to younger and older teens and kids. Definitely a Five star book.

Farm fresh southern cooking book review

I have for many years loved going to the Farmers market to buy seasonal fresh produce, but normally by the time I find a recipe to use the produce its spoiled or my family has eaten it. But now I have a way to put all that great food to a good cause (hence MY stomach), Through this book I have found many ways to use those extra green beans, or that leftover corn that NOBODY wants to touch.

I found many recipes that can be made ahead and a lot that won't last long. I found Tips Tricks and the occasional mouth watering I want to spend my life's savings and go buy four hundred pounds of ham cravings. On top of it all There are fun stories and many pictures ( Which doesn't help me when it's three in the after noon), When it's all said and done, This was a Majorly good decision and I cannot be happier that I received this book. I just hope that you love it just as much as I have.

Now on to make Bacon wrapped Banana Peppers, and Eggplant Parmesan.

P.S. I received this book by Book sneeze, to review truthfully.

Princess Stories by Carolyn Larsen

Carolyn Larsen delights young readers with her exceptionally fun, cute, and entertaining book, Princess Stories. Along with beautiful illustrations from Sergey Eliseev, this book is a winner for any little princess in your life!  A"Mirror, Mirror, on the wall" poem before each story makes each tale perfect for bedtime, or anytime you want to add a little fun to storytime! It contains the stories of many of the "princesses" in the Bible. True heroines of faith. A perfect addition to any little lady's library.

Overall, this book was great. I gave it to my six year old sister who is literally in love with it. No joke. She wrote her name in the front and brought it to school, and she loves hearing the stories. She like the beautiful dresses the princesses are wearing, and I believe we will buy an extra copy to give to her best friend for her birthday. I would definitely recommend this  book to anyone with a young sister {or daughter :) } whom you love very much. This book is a perfect gift for princesses of ages 4-8. Enjoy!

This book was given to me by Tyndale for free for this review

First Date book review


So if sharing your faith wasn't hard enough, try doing it on a reality TV show called “The book of love". Addy is just trying to get off the show, so she can go to her house in Florida, when she finds herself falling “in love” with the President’s Son, Jonathan Jackson.  If that’s not bad enough, her CO-stars aren’t too happy with her, and neither is the producer. She thinks that since everyone is out to get her, she won’t make through one elimination, let alone get to the top five! Addy tries to get the producer to like her, but nothing is working. When she finds out that he hates Christian’s, she isn’t too happy about it, but decides to show him the love of Jesus, and be nice to him. When she learns about an attempt at the President’s life, it doesn’t get much better, and when the president’s son finds out that Addy’s Uncle Saved his dad, he goes to the producer, and try’s to honor the Uncle.  The producer selfishly thinks of what he would like, and in the End is mad about EVERYTHING!
I thought this book was AWESOME! It had the great points of an Esther story, but threw in Lights, Camera’s, and a super cute guy. Shy and naive Addy, is trying to find out why God has placed her in this position, which leads to Revelations, and Romance. Overall an Amazing book, by an Amazing Author, and I look forward to more from her.
