What are you reading Monday February 15, 2010

This meme has been moved to
One Person's Journey Through A World of Books!
Thanks Shelia for carrying this forward from J. Kaye.

Same old story - I did a few more reviews this past week but I am still behind.  A bit of a cold this week had me a bit foggy this weekend.  I am going to try to do what J. Kaye suggested - write a review each night.

[Note re codes: YGR is You Gotta Read Reviews. MBS is this blog - Martha's BookShelf!]

Finished:


PB:  Saint Nick by Fred Tribuzzo.  This was quite interesting as a version of The Christmas Carol! Reviewing for Author Marketing Experts - to be posted here at MBS. 





PB: A Black Tie Affair by Sherrill Bodine. This was a fun easy read - toxic gowns, missing gowns and fiery passions between former "friends"! Reviewing for Hachette.  To be posted here at MBS.  Enter Giveaway.




Kindle2:  ------------
Journey to Redemption by Anne Patrick. I enjoyed this a lot.  There were good twists to this inspirational detective tale.  Reading and reviewing for the Author - to be posted here at MBS.

Audio CD: --------------

**************************

Currently reading:



PB:  Deadly Code by JP O'Donnell.  A thriller PI novel that starts out with a bang in the form of a car explosion! Sounds like some twists in this story too.  Reviewing for Author Marketing Experts - to be posted here at MBS. 






Kindle2:  The White Rainbow, Book 6 of the Wounded Warriors Series by Karen Wiesner. Inspirational Women's Fiction. Jessie Nelson has been telling herself she doesn't deserve or believe in second chances, especially when it comes to love...until her "white rainbow" appears in a corporate pirate who conquers her, heart and soul. Reading and reviewing for the author and YGR.




Audio CD:  Absolute Power by David Baldacci.  This was Baldacci's first book back in 1996 - Political thriller.  I am on disc 7 on this.  Wonderful forensic detail - I like that. Reviewing for Hachette - to be posted here at MBS.  Enter Giveaway!

Sunday Words of Encouragement - February 14, 2010

Our Pastor preached on "Valentine Dreams" today. Not the myths of "love is enough", but the true characteristics of love as found in God's word that apply to all relationships. Philippians 2:1-2:
encouragement
comfort
fellowship
tenderness
compassion and
like-minded

I was looking for a different song but came upon this one. It is "perfect" for the book blog too! If you watch you will see why!

Verses for Today:
Philippians 2:1-2
If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose.

We have a faith clinic at our church for those in the community that don't have insurance. The Doctor came forward to ask for prayer for a cancer patient at the clinic. How awesome is that - to have your Doctor intercede in prayer for you!!
I wish to add prayers today for all those struggling with cancer.
