Calling Me Home
Calling Me Home
by Julie Kibler
Julie Kibler called me home! (1/16/2013)
Everytime I had to care for my family and set the book down, I was sad. I kept returning to the book as quickly as I could. I really liked the character development as well as the characters themselves. I was intrigued by the mystery and feeling for their dilemmas.
Indiscretion
Indiscretion
by Charles Dubow
I couldn't look away... (11/12/2012)

The Homecoming of Samuel Lake
The Homecoming of Samuel Lake: A Novel
by Jenny Wingfield
I loved when Samuel Lake finally came home! (7/13/2011)
When is Jenny Wingfield coming out with her next book? I thoroughly enjoyed this book. There were times when it was "hard to watch" yet, I could not put the book down. Swan Lake and Blade were two incredible characters that were easy to love.
