Happy Thanksgiving

I just want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. I hope everyone has a nice Thanksgiving dinner with their friends and family. I have a busy day of cooking my parents are coming over for dinner. It has been a while since I have had Thanksgiving with my mom. I always went to my in laws house when I lived in Hawaii. Anyway I am thankful for my family and my husband and God. What are you thankful for?

Review: The Competition by Cecily Wolfe

Here is a summary of what the book is about. For Mary Sofia, The Penultimate writing competition is more than a chance at a free college education; she wants to show her younger siblings that they can all rise above their violent family history. For Raiden, the pressure to succeed comes from within, although he knows that family traditions play a part in his determination.

For Camara, writing fiction is almost compulsive, but her own dark secret maybe the best story she can ever tell. For Michael, swimming and writing fit his introverted personality perfectly, but meeting a smart and beautiful girl at The Penultimate makes stepping outside of his comfort zone easy.

All four will compete against each other along with 96 other high school juniors for the chance of a lifetime: a full scholarship to a prestigious private college. Some students will do anything to win, but others may pay the price.

I thought this book was well written. It was a very interesting story. I found some unexpected twists in this book.

I look forward to reading more books by this author.

Happy Reading Everyone!

Well I managed to do some reading while on vacation. I have read 54% of the book Cottage by the Sea by Debbie Macomber. I will be posting a review soon. Tomorrow my husband and I return home. We had a great time while on vacation visiting family and doing fun things. I hope everyone has a good week.

Vacation Time

In just a few hours my husband and I will be leaving for the airport we are going on vacation to Hawaii. We will return on the 26th. So I don't know how much reading  and  blog updating I will be doing because of all the fun we will be having. We are going to attend a friend's wedding. It's kind of funny I lived in Hawaii for 16 years and now I am going back as a tourist.  I hope everyone is having a good week. See you all in a week.

Review: The Distance Between Us by Georgie Capron

Here is a summary of what the book is about. Tasha knows that she should count her blessings: married for eleven years, mother to three healthy children, she should be content with her lot. However, feelings of frustration have  settled over her like a dark cloud.

Despite living under the same roof and sharing the same bed, Tasha has never felt so distant from her husband, Charlie. She feels worn down by the mental load of motherhood, drowning in the never-ending chores that keep the family and household afloat. Most of all she worries that her once happy marriage is slipping away from her.

Tasha longs for something to change, but when change comes calling will it really be the answer she was hoping for? And is it possible to fall in love with the same person twice?

A modern day love story about family, marriage and risking it all to have it all.

I found this book to be very insightful. It deals with issues that could really happen in marriages.

I enjoyed reading this book. It was very well written. The author did a good job.

I am looking forward to reading more books by the author.

Happy Reading Everyone!

Blog Update

Well I did it. I finished my online class I was taking yesterday.  It was interesting. I did learn a lot but it didn't really apply to me with the business I am doing. I started the class on February 13, 2018.  The class is called Starting Your Own Business Online and it was through Penn Foster.  No more studying for me. Now I can focus on my knitting business and do other fun things. Hope everyone is having a good weekend.
