With lack of communication being high on the top of the list for why couples end up divorcing, Dr. Gary Chapman & Ramon Presson have compiled a book of questions that can strengthen marriages. It is a marvelous tool to open your lines of communicating and learning more about the person you love. It's imperative to dig deeper into your spouses thoughts in order to expand your relationship. It also makes the couple find time to spend together in order to draw closer to one another. Too often, relationships fail because work and activities take priority over their time together. The couple than drifts apart. The assignment the author's give us can be fun not to mention all of the new things we will learn about our partner that we never knew before. This book is definitely a must read for all couples. I was given the opportunity to read it from Moody Press in exchange for my thoughts. Dr. Gary Chapman is also the #1 New York Times Bestselling autor of "The 5 Love Languages."

Wanda E. Brunstetter's "A Woman of Courage" is a Definite Must Read~
New York Best-Selling Author, Wanda E. Brunstetter bids us to come along on Amanda Pearson's journey who decides to pour her heart and passion into ministering among the Nez Perce' Indians after losing out on love. It takes all of Amanda's Quaker faith to have the courage to achieve her task among those who are reluctant to hear. The journey is dangerous and keeps the reader on the edge of their seat. For me, the experience was so exciting that I read the book twice. I was given the great priviledge of reading this book for Handlebar Publishing in exchange for my thoughts. This book lands on the list of my favorites and I highly recommend.

Dr. Kiehl Reveals Genetic Role In Psychopaths
Kent A. Kiehl, PHD shares his passion for understanding psychopathic behavior in his book, "The Psychopath Whisperer~The Science of Those Without a Conscience". The doctor spent over twenty years among the prison population doing interviews and communicating on a one to one basis with it's offenders in an effort to determine what causes psychopathy. After creating the first mobile functional MRI scanner to use on his subjects, Dr. Kent was able to confirm that psychopaths all have diminished brain structures. This was ground breaking and shed new light on this disorder. His findings could open the door to treatment and pre-determination of this illness. The book is exciting for those interested in neuroscience and psychiatry. I couldn't put it down and read it several times. I was given the opportunity to read the book and give my honest review through Blogging for Books.

Geogia Pellegrini's Tips To Living More Self-Sufficient
Georgia Pellegrini's Modern Pioneering is the Ultimate guide in learning how to live off the land. It includes more than 150 recipes, projects and skills for a self-sufficient life. I found it extraordinary and full of new ideas for those of us who have made the most of mother nature in our lives. As a young girl back in the sixties, I recall my Italian grandmother and her friends picking dandelions to use for dinner. Ms. Pellegrini includes recipes for dandelions as well as other edible flowering plants and they sound quite delicious. There is imperative information on how to make your own planting seeds; make tea from scratch; where to grow certain plants and a wealth of information too long to list here. It's a wonderful guide for those who enjoy growing and preserving as well as for those who enjoy creating. I was given the awesome opportunity to read this book for blogging for books in exchange for my thoughts. I consider it a must read and will treasure it for years to come. For more information Modern Pioneering.

This healthy, stellar approve to gardening is written an easy, understandable words. She even gives the grower tips on increasing your harvest and flowers. As a 35 year planter, I only wish I knew half of the information she shares when I had multiple problems. We were taught the wrong way, to buy sprays and foams to deter insects and small animals which could be harmful in the long-run to humans. I insist that gardener's read this manual. She has every subject covered when it comes to growing and you will learn something new. I had the golden opportunity to read this book from "Blogging for Books" in exchange for my thoughts. For more information on the author and her book click here.

Exploring What The Bible States About Heaven And Hell
Not everyone is a Bible Scholar which explains why the popular Author Christopher D. Hudson is so popular. He has spent a lifetime helping others understand the scriptures. In his new book, "Heaven & Hell Are They Real?" he offers scriptural reference related to simple questions we all might have. I was given the opportunity to read this awesome book for the Book Look Blogger Team in exchange for my thoughts. I've been reviewing books for ten years and this is only the second time I purchased a copy for my Kindle. It's one of those books that I want to keep on hand for reference. I have many friends who ask me about the afterlife because I love studying about it. He addresses several concerns that almost everyone has such as: What exactly is our Heavenly inheritance; What will our bodies be like and Is Hell fair? There is also additional content from trusted scholars and questions for digging deeper. There is so much more to learn from Christopher D. Hudson that will widen our understanding of the afterlife. I highly recommend this book for everyone.
