My thoughts...

With the New King James translation being my favorite I was excited to receive this prophecy study bible. I've enjoyed reading other's interpretation of prophecy and always learn something from their commentaries. There's lots of jewels in this bible that made me dig deeper into scripture.

" Events on the End Times” was particulary interesting as well as the great charts and concordance at the back of the book. I find this to be a valuable tool in my studies.

AN ENDLESS CHRISTMAS



Litfuse, Worthy Publishing, and Cynthia Ruchti are pleased to bring you Christmas a little early this year.

Christmas takes a very different turn when the guests of honor break up instead of announcing their engagement. Trapped with his family, they learn that love looks different than either imagined.

Both in their eighties, Dodie and Wilson Binder celebrate every Christmas as if it were their last. This year, their grandson Micah is planning to ask his girlfriend, Katie, to marry him so they can celebrate with the whole family. But things go very wrong when she says, "no." Now they are stuck. Too many people, too much snow, and too little room should be a recipe for disaster. But sometimes too much is just enough. Especially when it's Christmas.

My thoughts...

Really enjoyed this novella, loved the characters, and the storyline. It opens with a marriage proposal that is turned down. The couple spend the next several days together in what could be a very awkward week.

The Binders are a wonderful family one would like to be a part of. Holiday traditions are special, this family is full of faith and love. Nightly prayers for each person that are special, hidden secrets that are you find out aren't really worth keeping hidden at all and a chance to see what good is already in your life. A great book.

My thoughts...

Twenty short murder stories in one book, Though not usually a short story reader this one caught my eye and I'm glad it did. There's a mixture of characters and crimes that will satisfy whatever your tastes in crime stories are. From a serial rapist who begins his evilness again upon being released from prison in "Peace, Sometimes" to a cold case reopened after receiving a tip and a most clever twist in "The Keepsale".

A couple others really enjoyed are "He'll Kill Again" which is about a janitor whose fun is watching elite college kids party and ghost story "The Hunt for Skippy Walker" , this is a dark different kind of tale but very interesting. Whatever your mystery type this book will appease.
