Mine is the Night

Mine Is the Night by Liz Curtis Higgs was an amazing read! I enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. As a busy mom, I was constantly trying to figure out ways to work my time so I could get back to read my book. This retelling of the story of Ruth was set in Scotland. Elisabeth and Marjory Kerr moved back to Marjory’s homeland ashamed and penniless. The story had twists and turns that kept me fascinated from start to finish. Even though it was patterned after the story of Ruth, it still kept me interested and the plot was not spoiled by that at all. It is definitely a must read in my book, and I know I will read it again and pass it on to my friends.

The Bridge of Peace

The Bridge of Peace by Cindy Woodsmall was definitely an awesome read. The ups and downs of Lena’s life kept my attention throughout the whole book. I enjoyed meeting Lena and her friends. Cindy Woodsmall wove a picture of life – real life. No one’s life was perfect; everyone experience hardship and joy. This book kept my attention, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. My only regret about the entire book was that I had not read the first book in the series. This book definitely builds on the first book, and I was a little lost in many places and wished I had read the first one. I will recommend it to my friends and family. I am anxious to read the rest of the series.
