Book Review: Eyes of Justice

This is the third Lis Wiehl book that I have had the opportunity to review and it is the fourth book in the Triple Threat series. I really enjoy Lis Wiehl's books and believe she is a great story teller. This book was very intriguing. I couldn't believe how quickly the story drew me in. I couldn't put it down. The first chapter sets the stage and by the second chapter you are shocked to the core. If you have read any of the other books in the series you won't want to miss Eyes of Justice.

The characters are well written and I feel like I am right their with them. I get completely wrapped up in the story and their lives. Great story!

Book Review: The Soul Reader

The Soul Reader by Gerard D. Webster was the second book in a series. I hadn't read the first one but was able to follow the story easily. It actually made me want to go back and read the first book. The main character, Wade, has the gift of being able to read souls by looking into their eyes. He is involved in a criminal investigation which leads him down a dangerous path. Along the way he learns more about himself and how he is losing his own soul. There was enough suspense to keep me interested plus a great story line along the way. I enjoyed reading this book and will be reading the first book soon.

Book Review: Invasion

Over the weekend I finished another book. This time I chose a fiction book. At the time I didn't realize it was a young adult book. As I started reading Invasion by Jon Lewis, I was quickly hooked. The main character is a 16 year old boy whose parents are killed in a car wreck. He is told it was by a drunk driver but soon finds out that was just the cover story. As the story progresses we find out there is a whole world out the public has no idea exists. I don't want to give to much away but think comic book heroes and aliens among us. I enjoyed the story and think my sons will like to read it also. It is going to be a series so I am sure I will be reading the next one too. If you have children in your family that like sci-fi fiction give this book a chance. It was a good book and kept me interested once I got into the story.

Book Review: Why Men Hate Going to Church

I was accidentally shipped the wrong book recently but I decided to go ahead and read the book I recieved. I surprisingly enjoyed it. The book was "Why Men Hate Going to Church" by David Murrow. As a wife to a husband that rarely goes to church, I thought this book has some great insite. The author opened my eyes to what he calls the feminization of Jesus. There was so much that I hadn't really thought about. I highly recommend this book if nothing else just to make you think. Look around your own church and see if the population is mainly women. If so ask yourself why.

One question that I thought was interesting is toward the end of the book in the chapter Getting the big story right, is the gospel being portrayed as a chick flick?  Is the Lamb of God being predominately preached or the Lion of Judah? It even made me think about some of the praise songs we sing. Like I said this book really opened my eyes to how some men might feel sitting in some of our churches today.

Book Review: Heaven is for Real

I decided to review "Heaven is For Real" by Todd Burpo even though I am a tad bit leery or cynical about books like this. I have heard a ton of people talk about it so I figured why not. It is a really easy and interesting book to read. I love to read about people's lives and this book really drew me in. I have a special needs daughter who has spent time in the hospital so I felt a connection with the parents. When I started reading Colton's description of heaven it made me think of having such child-like faith.

I enjoyed this book and would recommend it. It is a fairly short book but it will draw you in and hold your attention. I even cried a little! Heaven is a wonderful place and the description from the mouth of a child makes me long for it.

Book Review: Waking Hours

First thing I want to say is that if you get easily spooked or dream about what you read, I wouldn't recommend reading this book before going to bed. That being said, I really liked this book!

Waking Hours by Lis Wiehl was a well written story. It made you think about things that we don't see with our physical eyes. There is a spiritual world right along with our physical word, that we don't see and some do not like to think about. This book makes you look at possibilities some try to ignore. I love books that make you think outside the box.

The story line was easy to follow and I didn't want to put it down. The two main characters and the story line flow well with each other. One is a forensic psychologist, the other is a private investigator in training. The story doesn't completely end, and it looks to be a trilogy. Check it out and see what you think!
