Book Review: Blind Hope

I received Blind Hope by Kim Meeder and Laurie Sacher for review from Blogging for Books. This book is the true story of Laurie's experience of adopting an unwanted, stinky, ugly dog. The bond, love, and healing she experiences through the relationship with this dog is very much like the experience we have with God.

I wasn't that big of a fan of the writing style, but the concepts of the book great! The experiences Laurie had definitely do a great job illustrating how our heavenly father feels for us! I would recommend this book to any Christian who is struggling with their walk with God. I'm not a big animal person, but this book makes me want to adopt a dog so that I may experience the beautiful relationship portrayed in the book! :)

Book Review: Simply Grilling

I received Simply Grilling by Jennifer Chandler for review from booksneeze.com. I live in Hawaii, so having a cookbook that I can use ALL year round is fantastic!

There are 3 things I like best about the book:

1.) It's hard cover! Classy looking cookbook. Great gift idea.
2.) The pictures of all the dishes make the meals look so appetizing! I like to see what my food is supposed to look like when it's done.
3.) SUPER EASY and DELICIOUS recipes! Most of the recipes use ingredients most of us have in our kitchens. It's amazing what desserts (my favorite part of meal) can be made using the grill!

This is a great gift for the grillers out there! Enjoy and happy eating! You'll like the book, but you'll love the food even better! :)
