Books

Hi! :)  I wanted to tell you all about some books that I've enjoyed recently.  The first one is Perfectly Unique by Annie Downs.  

This book is perfectly charming.  It teaches you to use your body to glorify God in many different ways with many different parts of your body.  Annie writes in a fun loving, down to earth tone which I enjoyed greatly.  She blogs here.  The appendix of the book contains many recipes, websites, and more.  I loved Perfectly Unique.

The next book happens to be a fiction book that I zoomed through.  It is called The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place, The Mysterious Howling.

This book is well written, different, and captivating.  It is about a well educated woman named Penelope who is looking for a job.  She finds an ad that says there is a position for governess available at the house (more like mansion) of Lord and Lady Ashton.  However, Penelope does not find the children in the nursery where she expected.  She keeps hearing mysterious howls that seem to be coming from the barn.  She strolls outside to take a look.  She finds......  THE CHILDREN!  They are howling like wolves.  Most think they've been raised by wolfs.  They are drooling, licking, and did I mention howling.  With sooo much to teach them, Penelope is not pleased to figure out that Lady Ashton is hosting a Christmas ball... and inviting the children!!!  With many mysteries along the way, this adventure is thrilling.  It is one of the many books in the series.  The Mysterious Howling is a great read.




These are the recent favorites of mine.  Next are some that I have started reading and plan to finish soon.

Amazon says Graceful goes along wonderfully with Perfectly Unique.  So far, this book is great!  I hope to read more of it soon.  Emily blogs here.

Kisses from Katie has been both heart breaking and gripping.  It tells the story of how Katie came to Uganda and became used to the culture there.  It is interesting how she planned to go on a trip to Uganda for a week and then it turned into coming back for a month which turned into living there and adopting many children.  I can't wait to finish Kisses from Katie.  Katie blogs here.

I got a hold of this beautiful book yesterday.  I am loving it!!!  I love Jenna's writing.  Redefining Beautiful is about what true beauty means.  I have read another book by her called From Blah to Awe which I posted about here.
