A Promise in Pieces – a Litfuse Review
It isn't too often that I read a book that is . . . different. Different is a word that I use lightly, but I believe that there is probably a better word that I could use to describe how the story line captured me. Mold-breaking, perhaps?A Promise in Pieces is a novel from a series called Quilts of Love. Its author is Emily T. Wierenga, and it just so happens that this is Emily's debut novel.Book DescriptionIt’s been more than 50 years since Clara cared for injured WWII soldiers in the Women’s ...
Goldtown Adventures Series – a Kregel Review
I was given the opportunity to review two books written by Susan K. Marlow. The books are part of a series called Goldtown Adventures, and their titles are Canyon of Danger and River of Peril.

You can read the first ...
Ch-ch-Changes!
Periodically, it's crossroads time. You know what I mean. I can't help but be sad when it comes, because I'm consistently indecisive by nature.

Costochondritis–Where do I stand?
It's been a long time since I gave an update solely talking about costochondritis. I've had a lot of emails since my last post, so I thought I'd give an update about what has been going on with it. I'm currently still dealing with costochondral pain. However, it comes and goes. Right now, we've got a cold patch going on and have had snow, and my ribs are bothering me. I can feel it in my back and my lower ribs if I press them. Currently, I'm in a good place. I no longer need to take Tylenol or ...
