Cookbooks - recipes upon recipes

I received a new cookbook, and you all know how much I love cookbooks and cooking and baking! i was soo excited. there are about 300 PAGES in this cookbook. yes 300 pages....that is amazing value for the price of this cookbook. Trim Healthy Mama is the name of the cookbook. I was a bit disappointed to see they had a LOT of substitutes that I don't NEED to have (low carb, not real sugar etc) some recipes look very easy to switch, some I have to google what that is. I did make one recipe. The chili and it was delicious!!! I am so very excited to try more and it will take me awhile as there are again....300 pages in this cookbook! its like a bakers dream! lol. I give this 4 stars!! *I received this book from Blogging for books for this review.

A girl is a half formed thing

This review is based on a free book by blogging for books. THis book was soo hard to read. I hate to say that because it has potential but most of the reading is thoughts, and random not full sentence thoughts. it is about mental illness which is a great thing to read more about. I just could not get through any chapter without reading over and over over again and even then it was difficult. one star.

Another blogging for books review!

Freedom's Child by Jax Miller First let me tell you I read this book in two days....granted it was a holiday weekend and I didnt have my kids, but still. TWO DAYS. between netflix of Gilmore Girls I read this book and let me tell you, it is slightly "no way can this happen" to "this totally happens". It is about a woman in a witness protection program. Which I am not sure how she got in it since I thought these were always more bigger crime mobsters that witnesses got to be in it, this was not about a big crime mobster. Anyway, It is about her going back and trying to find her children she gave up and all the twists and turns since they ended up on a cult farm. i think reading this you are thinking...um, what? but it really was a good easy read and i recommend it to anyone. 4 stars!

Book Review - Lincoln in the World

As you can see I havent posted a review in awhile. I keep trying to read this book and CAN NOT finish it, I give up. It is, of course, a fact based book and it doesnt seem to go in order enough for me, so hard to get into it, it seems more like little stories here or there rather then a complete book. It did talk about some things that other books in regards to Lincoln do not go over and I liked that, however I can not tell you how it is at the end because i can not even struggle through it. Do not recommend this to anyone.
