AWESOME !!!!
 I have been waiting for this book since the last one came out (Which seems like for ever ago, but in reality was only a couple months).
 Thor finally gets the girl, Or in this case a Queen Mother. Instead of the Queen Mother playing matchmaker this time, her kids decide to push her out side of her shell and set up a series of dates; really publicity stunts to gauge the public's response to the Queen Mother moving on and the possibility of new love for her. But the Queen Mother already has someone in mind, if she can get him to go along...
One of my favorite books by Carol Moncado so far, although I think I say that about ever book she writes. I would Highly recommend putting this book on your TBR Pile.

It’s lunch time, and Piggie has whipped up a batch of her favorite treat – slop. And she wants to share it with her best friend – Gerald. Will he try it? Will he like it if he does?

Yes, this is a variation on Green Eggs and Ham, but the execution is flawless. There are plenty of laughs, both from Gerald’s reaction and some of what Piggie says. Plus, the moral about it being okay if you don’t like something as long as you tried it is perfectly done and a natural part of the book.

This series continues to amaze me! While I feel like I slightly liked Illuminae a little bit more, Gemina was still completely amazing! I loved the new characters, and was just as emotionally attached to them as I had been to the ones in the first book. The writing style was just as good if not better than Illuminae, especially some parts at the end, including pages that had me turning the book upside down and sideways and just some truly amazing pages that I can’t talk about without spoilers. And the twists! I seriously don’t know how I’m going to wait over two months for Obsidio. This has easily become one of my favorite series ever!

I received a free copy of this book when I signed up to host the review tour via YA Bound Book Tours. I made no guarantee of a favorable review and the opinions expressed here are my own.

Before I begin let me say that I found the cover of this book to be pleasing to the eye.

Now, if you love reading books about royalty and their drama filled lives then you will definitely want to read this and if you also enjoy romance, then know that you have hit the jackpot. The story line kept me glued to every turn of the page and the author's world building creativity made me feel like I was there experiencing it all. Instead of telling you who my favorite characters are I will tell you which characters I hated with every fiber of my being; Vacilla and Silas as they truly made life a living hell for the people around them.

I found the characters to be well written and I loved reading this book. This book contains just the right amount of romance, drama and adventure. I will definitely be reading the second book. Kudos to J.D. Wright for a fantastically written fantasy.

The Berenstain Bears Thanksgiving Blessing is a book for all children. The book is a must-have on your bookshelves if you are a Berenstain Bears fan. This book helps teach children about Thanksgiving and being thankful for the blessing that you have.

This book teaches Mama and Papa as they ride through the woods to their grans and gramps place for Thanksgiving dinner. They teach about how the native Bears and pilgrims shared and started the whole Thanksgiving feast and what it means to be thankful for all the blessings you have.

The blessing is quite a few things we have somewhat forgotten we came to have. Some of the blessings are Family and Friends, Faith, and religion. A few others. The cubs do mention a song that is a favorite of mine. The song is “Over the river and Through the woods.”

What will your child or children learn about the history of holidays and celebrations? This book teaches a bit about it. What is your child or children learning to be Thankful for during the season? Are we teaching that children should be thankful for the blessing that they have? The many blessings we have in life have continued told in this book.
