Growing in God's Love: A Story Bible by Elizabeth F. Caldwell; Carol A. Wehrheim is an illustrated book that pays attention to quality and detail. While it says it is a book that children can read, I believe it should be read to children.  I am impressed with this book, the wording, and I like how it is designed to be interactive between adult and child with three simple questions at the end of each story.

Most of the stories are between one and two pages counting the illustrations and three questions and start at the beginning of the Bible in Genesis and through the old testament and then into the new testament. The verse location in the Bible is given under the story title.

The author did a great job of covering Bible topics in a way that children can understand but in a way that adults can gain a blessing as well. 

I received an ARC from Westminster John Knox Press via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

A sexually enlightened page turner!!

This is a purely adult read, not just because of some fun sex scenes, but from a few sensitive topics being raised... Spoiler : drug addiction (not Angelique!) and an assault.

 I was hooked from the very first page. I really like Angelique, being inside her head is fun and interesting. She has an intoxicating confidence about her and knows how to make the most of, and enjoy, life. I also like how this isn't written like a diary, more like having a chat with a friend, so feels more natural and flows better.
    Angelique is a bit of an inspiration, she knows what she wants and isn't afraid to go for it.
    I can't believe we've been left with, not a cliffhanger as such, but a few loose ends....that grabbed me.....I need more!!! I need to know how things turn out. So with that in mind, I think I'd like it to be a bit longer or fingers crossed there's a sequel....... especially as the clear winner of douche bag of the year needs to have a good bit of comeuppance!!
