The Long Way Home by Andrew Klavan
The second book in the Homelanders series continues with the main character, Charlie West. Charlie woke up one day as a wanted man and he doesn't know why. Both terrorists and the police are trying to catch Charlie and all he wants are some answers. He goes home to try to find the reason behind the situation he has found himself in. His friends from home join Charlie and his quest for what has happened. The first book in this series was great and this book is a great continuation. It's a fast paced book leaving you wanting for more. Highly recommended.

The White Horse King By Benjamin Merkle
King Alfred is one of the most storied kings in Britian's history. He is most known for leading his people over the Vikings, but he did many other things for his kingdom. He changed the roadways and legal codes. He also restarted Christian worship and learning about God. History isn't one of my favorite subjects, but reading about this great king was very interesting. This is a man who we can look at as a great leader and a man of God. Recommended.

The Sweet By and By by y Sara Evans with Rachel Hauck
All Jade Fitzgerald wants to do is get married and live happily ever after. But as her wedding approaches, she is faced with demons of the past. She has done everything to forget about her past and now she has to deal with these issues before she can get married. This was the first book I've read in this genre, but I really enjoyed it. It is a love story, but the plot makes it interesting for both men and women. One cool thing for me was that I live about twenty miles away from the location where Jade grew up. This is a story about dealing with the past and hope for the future. Highly recommended.

Take Your Best Shot by Austin Gutwein with Todd Hillard
Austin Gutwein was a 9 year old who wanted to make a change in someone's life. He created Hoops of Hope and has changed the lives of thousands of people in Africa. Jesus told us to help those in need and Austin has been doing that for many people. This was a great book that told an amazing story about a kid who wants to make a difference. It has inspired me to want to do some sort of mission and help those who are less fortunate. The book did a great job of using God's Word and showing how we need to take our best shot to help others. Highly recommended.

Review of "Green" by Ted Dekker
The Beginning and The End. This is the main concept for book four of the Circle "Trilogy. " In this book Ted Dekker attempts to bring the conclusion of the story after "White" and bring it back to the beginning of "Black." It's been ten years since Elyon has been with the Circle and many of the members are growing restless. Thomas Hunter is trying to maintain everything the Gathering has stood for. The book does show how the story ends... and begins. I was very impressed with how Dekker was able to finish the Circle Series as well as tie in the other Books of History Chronicles. While there are still some lingering questions, this book should leave readers feeling fulfilled. One of my favorite things about this book was how it really reminded me about how much I'm looking forward to Heaven. Highly recommended.
