{Book Review} Shaken by Tim Tebow

Title: Shaken
Author: Tim Tebow

I got this book to give to my brother... he basically read and review it for me. He LOVED the book. He said Tebow shared a lot of personal experiences and was very transparent with his readers. He was very open about his faith and clearly explained the Gospel in the book. Again, my brother was very impressed - I'm looking forward to the day I get a chance to read the book myself!

(Book Review)

Book Title: The Women of Easter
Author: Liz Curtis Higgs

Last year I read the Women of Christmas by the same author and really enjoyed it. So, I was happy to receive The Women of Easter to review. Things I like about the book: very nice design, and layout. The content is appealing, especially since it is about women in the Bible (and I am a woman myself!). Things I do not like: the author does not use the KJV version which is the only version I use. I plan to read this book cover to cover when Easter rolls around - I need to appreciate and celebrate Easter more than I do.... since it is the most important holiday for us as born again Christians! 

{Book Review} Alexander Hamiltons Guide to Life

Title: Alexander Hamiltons Guide to Life
My Rating: 1 and a 1/2 stars

Honestly, this books IS interesting.... However I do not like the perspective it's written from. It's such a worldly take on the life of one of Americas brilliant, and hardworking, founding fathers. I do not care for the swear words, innuendos, and the immoral picture this books paints of his life.

Book Review: Radical Beauty

Book Title: Radical Beauty
My Rating: 4 Stars

I am loving this book!  I am soaking up all the natural health and beauty advice from these two authors. I love learning about whole foods, natural living, etc. so this book is right up my alley. I'm already putting what I've learned into practice!  I took away one star because of a few things I don't care for - such as evolutionary thinking (I believe in Creation) and some other things I don't believe in or agree with. Other than that - I like the book a lot!

{Cook Book Review} Nourishing Meals

Title: Nourishing Meals
My Rating: 4 Stars

I am pretty happy with this cookbook!  My mom already made a recipe - chicken nuggets! We didn't have all the "whole" ingredients so we made some substitutions. The recipe turned out great! I can't wait to try more recipes from this book that are (hopefully) healthy, delicious, and satisfying for my future family.

Home Cooked {Cookbook Review}

I didn't really care for this cookbook. It just wasn't my "type" I guess. The photography was great, but I didn't see any recipes that I REALLY wanted to make, and many of the ingredients were things I never even heard of and would have know idea where to get. I guess this cookbook just didn't meet my original expectations.... that's all.

Good + Simple {Cookbook}

Title: Good + Simple
Author(s): Jasmine and Melissa Hemsley

This is a big, and very nice, hardback cookbook. The photography is great -nice clear pictures and delicious looking food.  I love that all the recipes are for healthy, wholesome foods... and each ingredient is healthy and wholesome.

What I Don't Like: A lot of the ingredients are things that cost a lot in my area and/or are hard to come by. In a quick glance, I did not see too many recipes I would be able to make with out doing quite a bit of shopping!
