Exciting News!

I have not written much about working as a book reviewer.  I decided I should, it's such a big part of my life now that it can't go neglected.  Since this blog is my scrapbook/family journal we felt it appropriate to talk about it here. This year I began Reviewing professionally for Squeaky Clean Reads.  I was so excited to get the job and honestly it has been growing so quickly.  We give ratings to books (movies can why not books?).  Readers can look for the book their child is reading and see if any content is inappropriate or not of their liking.  Also meant for those who want to read a clean book and not have to set it down because of its content. 

I SIMPLY LOVE IT!  I am able to read during nap time or any other time that works best for me.  I have been so blessed doing this.  Recently... well maybe about a month ago, my editor contacted me about Latter Day Womens magazine contacting them wanting to use my review as a feature in their magazine!!  I was so excited to have such an amazing surprise.  Really...wow!! They will post a small bio and my photo along with my review in the magazine.  I had been holding it in for awhile.  I kept telling Alex they're going to turn around and decide not to use it so I just kept it to myself.  Well it turns out they will post my review in their magazine.  It's on the book Alias by Mandi Slack.  I have been so ecstatic about it.  Of course I wouldn't have been able to do this without my husband who always helps me with my reviews from an outside point of view.  Thank you Sweetie.   

Well anways I should atleast post one of my books I've reviewed. This book stood out to me so much especially since I was getting ready to post my pioneer day photos and I couldn't help to think about this book during pioneer day weekend.  I don't recommend this book for those who want to read history but for those who want to live it.  I haven't felt so emotional to a book well...  this maybe a bold statement but true to me...since Harry Potter!!! Such a great read for members and non-members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Happy Reading

In The Company of Angels by David Farland
