Goodness Gracious Green ~ Judy Christie

Goodness Gracious Green

This is the sequel to Gone to Green and it is an okay book. I really liked the first book better. It had a more original storyline and the story harder to figure out. This book was an easy summer read but if it takes you longer than a couple of days to read, you may loose interest in the story.

Lois is back at the paper but not without problems. Someone keeps setting fire to the paper and the original owners keep showing up offering to buy back the paper.

I still think this is a good book to read however I bought this book back in January and just now go around to reading it.

Fatal Judgment ~ Irene Hannon

Fatal Judgment
This story starts off with the need of protection for a federal judge. The protector, US Marshal Jake Taylor is reunited with his best friends widow, Liz Michaels. She is a new federal judge who's sister is attacked in her home. The investigators have to find the killer and fast. It seems that the attack was not meant for the sister but for the judge. As Jake protects Liz, he realizes that his best friend had deeper issues and that his widow is not the mean person she was made out to be. You will hang on every word as you share the adventure of Jake and Liz as they try to find her sister's killer and the person who is still trying to kill her.

Learning ~ Karen Kingsbury

Learning (Bailey Flanigan Series)
The second book in the Bailey Flanigan series is great. The story picks up as soon as Bailey leaves the hospital and Cody forever. The story shows how Cory goes on in his football coaching career and his relationship with Cheyenne. Many different readers are picking either Team Cody or Team Brandon. This book makes me love Brandon just a little more. Bailey also have a hard time adjusting to life as a dancer and performer on Broadway. I recommend starting this series with Leaving and following how God moves in the lives of Bailey, Brandon, Cody and the people they interact with on a daily basis.

Canary Island Song ~ Robin Jones Gunn

Canary Island Song
I love this author and every book she has ever written. This is a stand alone novel for readers but an added bonus for all the Christy Miller fans out there. This brings Todd's Dad, Bryan Spencer into the picture and is a love story about him and an old friend from his late teens. Carolyn is a widowed mom who has raised her daughter, taken care of her sister and nieces and now in the words of her daughter she needs to "get a life".

As Carolyn goes to visit her mom in the Canary Islands, she revisits her summer boyfriend from when she was 18. During her visit she lets go of her anger toward God, embraces the love God has for her and finds that life is never turns out like you planned.

I loved every miniute of this book and read it in less that 24 hrs. There is also a surprise family connection that you find at the end.....Enjoy this book today!
