Review: Roots of Wood & Stone by Amanda Wen

Roots of Wood and Stone (Sedgwick County Chronicles)

Roots of Wood and Stone by Amanda Wen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Modern meets historical. The best of both worlds. What a great novel that keeps you turning the pages wondering what is next. Set in the 19th century & modern day, you get to go back and forth to see how each story intersects. Nothing confusing either. Small romance in both stories, but not overwhelming so if romance isn't your thing, this book is still for you. Highly recommend. My favorite story in a long time.

Nessie & Me...a Review & a #Giveaway

Here's a bit about the movie: The Loch Ness Monster has been back in the news following a recent sighting and resurfaced pictures, just in time for the release of family movie “Nessie & Me,” which is now available on DVD & VOD, courtesy of Vision Films! When 9-year-old Jamie moves to a beautiful lakeside village, he befriends a grumpy old sea captain who tells him of the lake’s mythical creature named Nessie. The townsfolk don’t believe him, but Jamie wonders if Nessie can be the solution to save the town from a greedy mogul who is buying up land around the lake… if only he can prove that Nessie is real. But sometimes it takes a little bit of magic, and with the help of a mermaid, a treasure map and an unlikely friendship with Nessie the Sea Monster, ...

VTech Voices ~ Family Reading Night & Giveaway!!!

That's right everyone. This week being part of the VTech Voices team is allowing me to bring you a cool giveaway. Of course, you are going to have to do a bit of work to get it.

Here's what you need to do. You need to come up with your very own Family Reading Night. It's where the whole fam (or as many are at home) sit down & read together. Sort of like a Family Home Evening for those LDSers in the crowd (HOLLA!). I did this with my lil guy & my nephew just last night. We layed on my bed and they each took turns holding the reader & playing the games that come after the story. It got a little confusing for a bit because, well let's face it they are almost 4 & 4.5yrs old so they are learning about not yelling out an...
