TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated Listening to Love (An Amish Journey #2) in Books
Feb 24, 2021
Such a good story!
When I started reading this book I immediately realized I had already read the first book in this series. This book can totally be read as a stand alone. This continuation of Natalie and Lucas's story, I think it is one of the best I've read in a while. Both Natalie and Lucas have to learn the art of communication, dealing with emotions, and over coming obstacles of change.
I give this story 5 out of 5 stars for the unique and unexpected twists, the overcoming spirits that the characters display, and the great story line.
I love Beth Wiseman's stories and this one did not disappoint, just leaves you wanting more.
I volunteered to read this book from Zondervan Fiction in return for my honest feedback. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.

4 solid stars for the book and narration
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted the AUDIO file of this book.
Nash needs a new job, and Emmett (apologies if I've spelt it wrong, I listened! ) needs a live nurse for his grandfather. But Emmett also heard Nash say he wants love, a partner in life. Nash agrees to Emmett suggestion, and then is involved in a accident that causes him to lose the last four months. Nash falls in love with Emmett, and then his memories return.
I listened to this, David Gilmore narrates. He is a new to me narrator. Overall, I found him a easy to listen to narrator, his reading voice is deep and clear, and I had no trouble following what was going on with multiple character conversations. I DID find his voice for Nash came across a little too young sounding, and Harley and Oliver too, they came across too young, for me anyway. This is the only reason I gave the NARRATION 4 stars.
I liked the book, it was an easy listen. I liked that, while not telling Nash the whole truth about how they came together, Emmett did not LIE to Nash, when he couldn't remember.
I gave the book 4 stars because of one reason only. Only Nash has a say. Yes, yes yes I know I say it often enough, but I think if Emmett had been given a say, this would have been a 5 star read! Because, let's face it: Emmett is asking Nash to marry him, then Nash has his accident and Nash can SEE the love in Emmett's eyes when he looks at him. So Emmett MUST have had such deep feelings for Nash waaaaaaaaaaaaaay before this. And I NEEDED to hear from him, I really did.
New to me author and narrator, will certainly look for more.

Molly J (Cover To Cover Cafe) (106 KP) rated In the Field of Grace in Books
Feb 27, 2019
This book was amazing. Absolutely amazing. The message that is woven into this book, that God's grace is sufficient through all times, good and bad, is powerful and incredible. It is just what I needed to read. Ms. Afshar is superbly talented and knew just what this reader need to read.
Boaz and Ruth, along with Naomi, are created perfectly. I felt like I had taken a trip right to the heart of the Bible and followed their story. Both suffered tragedies beyond compare, both seeking happiness, both reaching out to each other. The way they were portrayed, the way they interacted and fell in love, made me fall in love with the whole story. It was perfect!
Ms. Afshar's book is high on my recommendations list. From start to finish, I was lost in the pages of this book, and I had it done in less than a day. It was that good. This book is powerful and worth so much more than simple 5 stars. It is worthy of 5 million stars. When it comes to Biblical fiction this is the kind of book I seek and I am so incredibly pleased to have read it.<a href="http://cafinatedreads.com/?p=12710"; target="_blank">This review was originally posted on Cafinated Reads</a>

4.75 Stars. This book is phenomenal. I read in on sitting and could not stop!
Olly and Maddy's relationship progression was amazingly written and even though there was a small spark of insta-love , the relationship as a whole was well thought out and well-paced.
The part of this that brought it down from a 5 (which as a whole it deserved) is what she found out about the disease in the end. That was a little to cinematic (Bubble Boy) for me.
I wish there was more of it to devour - definitley an Incredible book.

A dark forest is scary! I definitely spooked myself out while reading this book. I couldn't put it down either. If you read it without looking too far for answers, it will keep you quite entertained. I had to read with the lights on for part of it. What a creepy story with creepy characters. It was a bit aggravating with the main character's personality. It had to be that way for the story to work. But I was disappointed in it. Otherwise, I would have given 5 stars. Ruth Ware knows how to do suspense!

Cat Up, Cat Down by Catherine Hnatov is a short and simple book featuring a black cat and a white cat that help teach prepositions with their positions. This is a beautifully illustrated, this book for toddlers is a great way to help teach them about differences while also appealing to those who love cats. Its easy to read and the illustrations are very simple but colorful which is perfect for little ones.

Nicole Hadley (380 KP) rated Nickelodeon Pandemonium #1 in Books
Jun 18, 2018
Nickelodeon Pandemonium #1 by Eric Esquivel, Stefan Petrucha is a quirky comic that early teen readers will enjoy. This book was a quick and easy read. The book is full of puns, jokes, silliness and action. In this book the reader is given 12 different comics. Before the comic this is a short biography interview of some of the authors and illustrators. This book will be entertaining to readers to like comedy and graphic novels.
I give this book 4/5 stars.
