Sara and the Search for Normal by Wesley King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

While my kids were school age I drove the short bus for children with disabilities. Having that background I learned about how these children learn and cope with their disabilities. This book is a great eye opener for anyone trying to understand how these children cope on a daily basis. I would encourage everyone to read to read this and the other book OCDaniel that will help you understand that their really is no real "normal" in our world.

Review: Blowback '63

Blowback '63 by Brian Meehl
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What's so Civil about war? In this second installment of the Blowback Trilogy we are blown away to the year 1863 right smack dab in the middle of the Civil War. Arky and his friend Danny are transported back in time when his sister, Iris plays her families antique Cor Anglais from 1720 that seems to bring out her Synesthesia: the blending of the senses that runs in the Jongler family. With the musical instrument she is able to send people back in time but usually not with the person's approval. Loved the mixture of history, friendship, baseball and family.

Review: Thomas Wildus and the Book of Sorrows

noreply@blogger.com (Maggiesdaisy) — Fri, 19 Jun 2020 17:53:00 +0000

Thomas Wildus and the Book of Sorrows by J.M. Bergen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Magic is real. At least that is what young Thomas Wildus's father has told him to believe before he went missing. Thomas has been having some strange occurrences happening to him. First he makes friends with an odd elderly fellow who owns a really cool old book store where Thomas is lent a book on magic in exchange for some work around the book store. That is when things really start gathering steam into the bulk of why Thomas needs to learn quickly his magical powers and save the world. I thought the story was great, the characters complimented each other and the door is wide open for the next installment of a great story of where friends and family are what matter most in life.

Review: The Girl in the Mirror

The Girl in the Mirror by Steven Ramirez
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Interesting spooky story that reminded me of the TV series where the woman sees and speaks with the dead to help them move onto heaven but not until the mystery of their deaths is solved and the perpetrators are exposed.

Review: Sisters and Secrets

Sisters and Secrets by Jennifer Ryan
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Having three sisters myself I am familiar with how sisters and secrets can destroy a family once the secrets are uncovered. The common factor is one sibling seeking or concentrating on one's own advantage, pleasure, or well-being without regard for others. Can Sierra find a place free of memories that haunt her? Is there any place on earth to find a place where no one hurts you or your loved ones? Sad that those we think who would never hurt us...family...friends are the ones you have hurt us time and again...and forgiving can take a long time is coming...

"Just looking at you makes me sick" Sierra to her sister

Ain't No Messiah by Mark Tullius
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

When I first got the kindle version of this from Goodreads I had a hard time getting into the book but since I agreed to give a review for my free copy I finished the book. I am so glad I did pick the book up and finish reading the novel. The ending had me laugh out load...but in between the pages after I got over the emotional and physical abuse of Joshua by his father, the story took on another life. One in which Joshua moves away from his abusive family and makes a new one only to be enticed back into the Church his father built upon Joshua being the New Messiah.

The Witch and the Guillotine by Daniel Sugar
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Nine Lives

The second book about young witch Lily Paris who has a knack for landing in the frying pan time after time. Enjoyed the history that revolves around the different place and time she resides in before having to move on to another place in the world where no one knows she is a witch that must be killed.
