Book Review: Mary Anne Saves the Day by Ann M. Martin


Mary Anne Saves the Day by Ann M. Martin
Book #3 in the Baby Sitters Club Graphic Novel Series

5 Stars

This was great! A favorite. I love Mary Anne and Dawn being a new girl to the group. Love seeing Mary Anne step up to her Dad and let him know how she was feeling and the stuff the girls uncovered from her Dad and Dawn's mom - super sweet. The Baby-sitter club girls got into a huge fight so Mary Ann eats alone in the cafeteria and finds a new friend in Dawn.

Mary Anne's mama passing away when she was little and her father as a single father is a great layer that many kids could relate to. 

This is all about a shy girl who saves the day -- and shows kids how important it is to forgive, apologize and help others. We also saw an emergency arise and how the kids handled it was great.

  Lending a Paw by Laurie Cass - 4 Stars  Book 1 in A Bookmobile Cat Mystery Series This was a fun introduction to a new cozy mystery series with a cute cat sleuth helping along the way! With the help of her rescue cat, Eddie, librarian Minnie Hamilton is driving a bookmobile in the resort town of Chilson, Michigan. Things happen she least expects when Eddie runs off and finds the body of a local man in town..... Minnie is ready to let the police solve the case but Eddie seems to smell a rat! Together they work to find the killer.  This was a really fun one to read while I was recovering from having surgery this last week! :) As a gift from my friend Tammy, I am so glad I read it! (And that I had my kitty Simba right there with me while I read it was a cute bonus!) Eddie is a stubborn kitty and I LOVED THAT! He kept on pushing the limits to help Minnie out. :)  A bookmobile is also a unique thing to find in books that I absolutely loved. I am looking forward to more ...

Book Review: The Queen's Cook by Tessa Afshar

Image
  The Queen's Cook by Tessa Afshar - 5 Stars  I have said it before and I will say it again, Tessa is the master of biblical fiction! I loved this story of Roxannah, the daughter of a once-privileged but now impoverished Persian lord, working in Queen Esther's kitchens. In this story, we see her determined to support her mother and repay her father's debts - she seeks out Adin to help her find work. Adin sees the need and secures her a position in the royal kitchens of Queen Esther.  Guided by Esther's grace and wisdom, she finds herself navigating prejudice and palace politics and deepening her bond with Adin along the way. As Roxanna goes up in the kitchen ranks, she and Adin uncover a plot targeting Amestris, the king's most powerful wife and Queen's archenemy. This sets things in motion from here in the plot.  This book has a rich historical setting of ancient Persia - very vibrant and immersive. Also, the culinary details in this were - chef's kiss! I l...
