Imperfect Justice (Book 2, Hidden Justice series) by Cara Putman

Are you into the thriller, romantic suspense genre? Cara Putman has recently released her latest novel in the Hidden Justice series called Imperfect Justice. This novel is one you'll definitely want to check out. Read below to find out why!

From the Back Cover:
To the world it seems obvious: Kaylene Adams killed her daughter and then was shot by police. Attorney Emilie Wesley knows a different story: Kaylene would never hurt anyone and was looking for a way out of a controlling, abusive relationship. Her death shakes Emile's belief that she can make a difference for women in violent marriages. Self-doubt plagues her as she struggles to continue her work in the wake of the tragedy.

Reid Billings thought he knew his sister--right up until he learned how she died. He discovers a letter from Kaylene begging him to fight for custody of her daughters if anything should happen to her. No attorney in her right mind would support an uncle instead of the father in a custody case, but Kaylene's letter claims Emilie Wesley will help him.

Thrown together in the race to save Kaylene's surviving daughter, Emilie and Reid pursue the constantly evasive truth. If they can hang on to hope together, can they save a young girl--and find a future for themselves in the process?

My Thoughts:
I thought this novel was well written and definitely lives up to its genre of suspenseful thriller. It was a story I couldn't put down, but one that had me tense with anticipation as to what would happen next. I liked how Cara's characters are a group of friends, and how they each play a part in the other's lives. It's fun to read about characters in the beginning of a series and see them show up in the subsequent novels. It makes you feel a little familiar with the story even though you are reading a new book. I will say that even though I have not read the first book in this series, it did not hinder me from beginning with the second book. You can tell there is a story with Andrew and Hayden, but not knowing that story didn't interfere with me enjoying this novel. I would definitely recommend this series to anyone who loves mystery and suspense. So make sure to pick this one up the next time you're looking for a new book to read!

My Rating: ★★★★

Little Iffy Learns to Fly by Aaron Zenz

Are you looking for a fun, new book for a young child in your life?  I am so excited to be a part of a blog tour for Little Iffy Learns to Fly by Aaron Zenz. This book was just released in October and is great for kids ages 1-5 years old.

Little Iffy is a fun, sweet character who happens to be a griffin who is afraid to fly. His friends are concerned, but Little Iffy is content to stay down on the ground. Iffy's friend, Eggs Pegasus, is determined to help Iffy and has devised a plan. But will Eggs' plan work?

I thought the book was great, and enjoyed looking at all of the beautiful art that Aaron has drawn. The illustrations will definitely keep a little one's attention.  My two boys, ages 3 and 5, thoroughly enjoyed reading this story with me. In fact, my three year old even thought that he would try flying like Little Iffy and Eggs. This was definitely worth videoing.

I loved how the story naturally leads into some great questions you can have with your children.  Little Iffy struggles with being scared of trying something new, and I think that all kids can relate to that in some way. It's a great story to show that it's normal to be afraid of trying new things, but we shouldn't let that keep us from trying. I also loved how Little Iffy's friends are all around him encouraging him to try something new. It's a good example of how friends can stick together and support one another.

If you're looking for a great, new book to add to your home library, make sure to pick up Little Iffy Learns to Fly to enjoy with your kids.

Sing: How Worship Transforms Your Life, Family, and Church by Keith and Kristyn Getty

Keith and Kristyn Getty, who have written many beautiful hymns for corporate worship, have written a book called Sing! This book's primary focus is not on how to better improve the singing of your worship team, but encourages a different question--How is your congregation singing?

Often the focus for worship is shifted to the musicians and those on the stage who are leading which results in the congregation becoming spectators like at a concert. We are all commanded to sing together to edifiy one another, not as an island promoting ourselves.

I think this book is a great resource for all believers and is desperately needed in our churches. It reminds us that there is a far bigger picture in this life than ourselves, and that church music must be evaluated in light of God's grand plan for the church.
