A Novel Idea

We're finally on my favorite book of this series! Yeah. After reading this book those who know me will have figured out why it's my favorite one. The main character is French! (I think I've mentioned I have a love for all things French :) I've even been trying to learn the language for a couple years now. Slow process but I've definitely accomplished some. The only problem is I don't think a native French would be able to understand me. :P   This picture is available as a desktop background on this link: Desktop Background Hope y'all enjoy this book as much as I did.

Happy 2nd week of November! It's only snowed here once so far this month. Well, at least a snow that counted anyway; it's yet to cover the ground. But we do have four days of snow in the forecast for later this week so who knows, right? I'm really looking forward to Winter this year. I mean, I always look forward to it, always hope for a TON of snow :D but even more so this year with plans for skiing. This week's book is the second in the Fountain Creek Chronicles series. Revealed is the story of Annabelle Grayson; a previous character in Rekindled. The majority of Tamera Alexander's books have a story of forgiveness and forgetting the past and Revealed is no exception. Annabelle's past is far from perfect; in fact most people avoid her because of it but she learns that in Christ all things are made new, including her. (2 Cor. 5:17) Hope you enjoy, Book Title: Revealed Book Series: Fountain Creek Chronicles (Book 2) Author: Tamera Alexander Description: Ann...

I am so sorry everyone for not having posted anything in a long time. With school and all my other activities and projects the time has really zoomed by.  Although it's not my favorite season, Autumn sure is a pretty time. The vibrant change of the leaves' colors and the crisp smell in the air. One of my favorite things about this season is all the baked goods made from apples. Apple crisp, apple pie, apple cider, dried apples, apple sauce, apple fritters... You definitely can't beat all that. :) We just got our first snowfall this weekend. Yeah! Winter's on it's way. I recently read this series of Tamera Alexander's and decided it would be nice one to review for the upcoming weeks. There are three books in the Fountain Creek Chronicles: Rekindled, Revealed, and Remembered. My very favorite is the book three but I really enjoyed all of them.
