Book Review: Tame Your Thoughts - Max Lucado




                                                   Tame Your Thoughts - Max Lucado - 4 Stars 
            
This was a solid, encouraging Bible study with some good biblical reminders about renewing your mind and replacing lies with God’s truth. The concept of being intentional with your thought life, especially the tools like picky thinking, identifying those bad thoughts, uprooting them and replanting with scripture was easy to understand and helpful in a practical, real-life way.

While I didn’t find anything super deep or theologically profound, the simplicity of the message is exactly what some of us need in a busy or anxious season. It’s great for newer believers or anyone looking to refocus and get back to the basics of truth-filled thinking.

I especially appreciated how the study addressed things like anxiety, guilt, and rejection in a compassionate, Scripture-based way. This one might not be revolutionary, but it’s definitely a great reset for your mindset—and sometimes that’s exactly what we need. 💛

Note this comes with study videos also that I enjoyed hearing Max speak. It would be great with a group of people to study with because it gives a lot of thought provoking questions people can discuss in a group setting, as well as some personal study pieces too.

Thank you to the publisher for an e-book copy to read for review. All thoughts are my own.

  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: Fearless by Lauren Roberts

Fearless by Lauren Roberts Book 3 in the Powerless Trilogy 3 Stars OK, let’s dive into the review! I have sat with this all day and I think I’m going to land on 3 stars for this one. Books 1 and 2 were solid 4 star reads for me, and while my experience reading book 3 felt like a 4-star moment....mainly because I was in that UNWELL STATUS and absolutely NEEDED to know what was happening....it didn’t quite hold up in the end. You know those "drop everything and read" moments? That was ME! Her writing is great and addictive - but looking at the book itself, it felt a little all over the place. The last 30% especially got kind of random and, at times, just plain ridiculous. I questioned some events going on that made me like...WAITTTT WHAT? HA! That said, I still had a blast with this series. It is definitely one that will stay close to my heart because I adored Kai and Paedyn so much. Love their romance and banter - it's what has made the trilogy for me honestly. Kai really ...
