Confessions of a Book Lover: The Help by Kathryn Stockett

Absolutely fell in love with this story from the very beginning!
 It was a heartfelt story that made me laugh, cry, smile, and gasp in shock as I followed the lives of several women.


I read this book in about a day and a half to two days.
As long as you can get past the language and vocabulary, this is a terrific book full of hope and inspiration.
{I actually enjoyed that the author wrote how the women would have spoken during that time period.}

Confessions of a Book Lover: The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows




Overall, this was a good read. 

At first, I really could not get into this book, but I promised myself I was going to read it all the way through, no matter what.

I am sure glad I did.  It turned out to be a good book, with a very interesting story line about books, reading, and a book society or club.  If you do decide to read it, just don't give up on it.  Keep reading it until the end - it will be worth it!

It sparked my interest, mainly because I am a book lover and always have been!

And, as stated in my blog about inspirational notes, I am leaving notes in all the books I read now.  So, here is the note that I left in this one!

Confessions of a Book Lover: Heaven is for Real by Todd Burpo

This book is one of my faves so far.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book.
I read it within a day (about 8 hours, with breaks)!
It is an amazing story for believers and non-believers of Christ.




I took extra pics of the back cover (enlarged), so that you can possibly read the details about the book.
If you read it, let me know what you think.

*This is my 1st book of 20 as suggested by friends.  It is part of my "101 in 1001" list!*
