This is my first time reading a book by Jan Davis Warren! The Secret Life of Lady Evangeline is the first book in her new Secrets series. From the very first pages this book was an adventure that I did not want to put down.

Lady Evangeline was a remarkably strong women that I wish I could be! She faced a lot of trials and came out with a deeper understanding of the world around her. All the characters in the book were developed at a consistent pace and were interesting. I am hoping that the other books in the series touch on some of the other characters mentioned in this book as Id love to know their stories!

Overall, this story kind of seemed like a cross between Robin Hood and a Princess fairy tale. I enjoyed the storyline. Most of it was not too farfetched, but rather real events brought to life before your eyes. Entertaining and captivating.

 give this book 4 out of 5 stars for the attention-grabbing story, the character growth, and for making me anticipate reading more books from this author!

*I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feedback. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.

Trouble Blows West by Monique Bucheger grabbed my attention from the very first chapter (just read it and you will find out why!) and kept me hooked throughout the story. This story is geared toward 4th-6th grade age persons, yet it still was fun for me to read. I liked the simple dialogue mixed with the tough issues. It reminded me of the Christy Miller series by Robin Jones Gunn only geared towards a younger audience. The main topic of bullying was covered gracefully; although I do wish the dad or teachers had more formally explained why counteracting bullying physically is not really the way to handle the situation, as this book is geared towards an impressionable audience. Otherwise, it was all very interesting, and I really enjoyed the overall storyline and I am looking forward to reading more about Ginny’s adventures!

I definitely recommend this book to kids (or young adults) looking for something light and fun to read. 4 out of 5 stars for the creative characters, the relevant themes, and for keeping me interested until the end.
