Hello Again

 

wrinkled white sheets with an upside-down spread out book on top

Wow, this is the longest I've been away from blogging, so thank you for taking the time to check out old posts and reviews instead! It hasn't been fun being sick, especially when I didn't even have the energy to read anything for the first part of my illness. I'm slowly on the mend and hope to change my reading stats for the remainder of the month.

In case I haven't expressed it on here, I am deeply grateful to you for reading my little musings and different Christian book reviews. Although I haven't had the energy to even think about posting reviews, I have missed them, so stay tuned for the ones coming up!

I wish you a very happy start to the summer if you're in the northern hemisphere and a very happy start to the winter if you're in the southern hemisphere 🌞❄

Review: Penelope Judd

Imagine my surprise in discovering that the song for this book was released a number of years ago, making me realize that Penelope Judd by Shai Linne must have been in the making for quite some time. I'm grateful that the lyrics can now be found in a tangible form in this Christian children's book. Many thanks to  Merge Public Relations  for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own. Book Synopsis Based on his song, “Penelope Judd,” Shai Linne tells an allegorical tale that helps kids understand the Gospel story. Penelope Judd is a young girl living in a very messy land. Her whole town is covered in mud and only filled with children. No one is kind, the kids fight constantly, everything is sad and dirty, and Penelope feels hopeless. But one day, she receives a message that changes everything. She has been invited to meet a spotless Prince. This lyrical story helps kids see that, like Penelope, people live in a broken, messy...

Life Up North

I'm going to go against my previous posts about keeping my opinions to myself on things outside of faith and reading by sharing some of my recent experiences instead. I figure that if we read fiction to broaden our understanding of other perspectives that it might be worthwhile for me to share how things have been for me as a non-representative Canadian (I'm not speaking for anyone else here!) 😄 I'll be honest in that it's been tough in the last few weeks and months. I've done my best to keep up my optimism and more importantly, my hope in Christ, Who is unchanging and steadfast. Rulers come and go, nations evolve and change, and politics can swing back and forth, but God is immutable and sovereign over all things. That being said, recent geopolitical factors have resulted in an emotional toll on me and a lot of the people I interact with in my life. While I am grateful that I can place my burdens at the foot of the cross, I recognize that others in my life have va...

Review: Red Fairy & Fox - Red Fairy & Fox Adventures #1

I am so glad that I had the opportunity to read Red Fairy & Fox by debut author Courtney Denelsbeck . Many thanks to the author for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own. Book Synopsis A portal fantasy for lovers of Alice in Wonderland and the Chronicles of Narnia. Even when they surrounded her, she was separate from them as she was separate from everyone…” Red wishes she wasn’t the queen. During another lavish, boring ball, she follows a fox into a puddle. The world she enters is nothing like her own: brown, barren, and full of strange creatures. In this world, she is a lowly farmhand. With every passing day, there’s no sign of the unhelpful, snide fox who brought her to the mysterious land. When she is forced to accept her destiny, she can no longer ignore the threats on her kingdom nor the straining of the magic. Two kingdoms’ fates rest in Red’s hands, but she must first decide to become the hero her people need. Source:...
