Hey guys! I'm back again already with yet another book review!  Today I'm reviewing Furthermore , a new middle grade novel by Tahereh Mafi, author of the Shatter Me series. The book is being released on September 1, 2016. This book follows Alice, who has just turned 12. Alice lives in Ferenwood, a village where magic comes from color. However, Alice is devoid of pigment in her skin and hair, so she has no color. She teams up with a boy called Oliver to travel to the strange land of Furthermore, where Oliver says her dad is, who disappeared years ago. Alice and Oliver must navigate the strange, Wonderland-like Furthermore in order to save her father. I devoured this book; I just could not put it down. The story was just so fun and creative, and I was fully immersed in the world. The story wasn't predictable, and I found myself surprised many times. The writing style, too, was so fun and made reading so enjoyable. The narrator is speaking to the reader, a...

Hello everyone! I just finished reading the book The Seven Laws of Love: Essential Principles for Building Stronger Relationships  by Dave Willis, and I would like to share my thoughts on it. This book is all about the things necessary for love in any kind of relationship, whether that is a romantic relationship, a friendship, and just every day interactions as well. I actually really enjoyed this book, though I wasn't sure if the subject matter would really interest me. I thought I'm a pretty nice and loving person, so I wasn't sure what I would get out of a book about how to love. However, I found this book to be extremely helpful and informative. In addition to my normal note taking when I review books, I also made tons of notes and did some journaling for my personal benefit as well. The author, Dave Willis, states in the book that if we were to get one thing out of the book, he would want it to be that God loves us, and I think that he expressed that ext...

Hello everyone! I am super excited about today's book review. I recently received the NKJV Prophecy Study Bible from the publisher through BookLook Bloggers to review, and I absolutely love it! First of all, it is such a beautiful book. I fell in love with this Bible at first sight! It is a hardcover, and the jacket it so gorgeous. If you take the jacket off, the book itself is made of really nice, sturdy material, and it looks just like the dust jacket. It's really shiny, and I love it. The pages are your typical thin Bible pages, and they're so soft. Everything is laid out and displayed wonderfully.  Now on to the most important part: the content. Did you know that 25% of the Bible is made up of prophecies?  Understanding the prophecies in the Bible is a really great way to understand God's plan and the events that have taken place and will take place. It is also reassurance of God's power and the future He has for us. Before looking through this Bi...
