1 & 2 Thessalonians

Title: 1 & 2 Thessalonians: Hope in the Midst of Trails

Author: Tara-Leigh Cobble

Source: Bethany House Nonfiction

My Review:

1 & 2 Thessalonians: Hope in the Midst of Trails is my first introduction to the Bible Recap series. The Bible study can be used alongside the Bible Recap book or as its own Bible Study.

The Kitchen Contract

Title: The Kitchen Contract

Series: Boyfriend in the Bargain #3

Author: Jordan Millsaps

Source: Kindle Unlimited

My Review:

Poor Alex is the only one of his siblings without a family. He is so lonely that when a couple of his friends suggest he let their friend Nora use his kitchen for a cooking show and have him be her student, he agrees without much thought. Her cooking is incredible, and it will be a bonus to have something to occupy his time.

Focus

Title: Focus: How One Word a Week Will Transform Your Life

Author: Cleere Cherry Reaves

Source: own

My Review:

In theory, you will read one word a week. The reality for me is that it didn't work. I wouldn't remember to read it, or I would forget the word for the week. Plus, I have determined, I do not like year-long books. I don't like to be in the same book for that long. I know, it's my problem, but it is also making it harder to read books like this as they were intended.

The Parenting Pact

Title: The Parenting Pact

Series: Boyfriend in the Bargain #2

Author: Jordan Millsaps

Source: Kindle Unlimited

My Review:

While this is the second in the series it is not imperative to read the first book in the series first. However, I will always suggest that you do 😉. The series is linked through three siblings, so the books are interrelated.

Experiencing Grief

Title: Experiencing Grief

Author: H. Norman Wright

My Review:

I bought this book because my Mom was dying, and I had never read anything about grief, and I wanted to have some idea of what to expect. Since starting this book, she has passed away.
