Chronicle of Brothers Series by Wendy Alec



It has been way too long since I have done a book review. Geez! Needless to say I have been reading quite a bit! While on my hiatus from my blog, I read one of the best series have ever read. Yes you heard me right, this is now in my number one slot! The first book was very good, granted some descriptive words Wendy Alec overused, but it was still a great and well laid out series. I am honestly waiting for Book 5 to come out. I will have to reread this again before that happens just so I can refresh details in my mind.

If you like Fiction, Fantasy, Angels, Demons, Apocalyptic scenarios or just like Christian Fiction this is a great series that will keep you captivated beginning to the soon to come end. (?) Assuming Book 5 is the end of course LOL!

I honestly can't pick a favorite out of the four books already written. So I know the 5th will likely hold the same merit. Anyway you need to pick it up! You can find them on Amazon.com and I believe other book sellers online. I wasn't able to find it at my library at the time I read it but who knows by now they may have copies. Go, hurry, start reading it. You likely won't put the books down once you start!

Living SMART

I just started this book, and I am already half way through it! It really is helpful if you are trying to break bad habits in your life. I was given the book for my Optifast class, but I can say this will be helpful along the line when counseling others. These skills can help in many ways from trying to quit smoking, to eating healthier, exercising, quit drinking, being more positive, etc.

Set a goal
Monitor your progress
Arrange your world for success
Recruit a support team
Treat yourself

These are very simple practices that can change your life! I am looking forward to what comes out of implementing these skills in my weight loss, healthy eating, and exercise routines. 

Where can I find the time??

I am so frustrated at the fact I have not had much time to blog or read, or WRITE!! I know it will all happen in the right time. With everything that has been going on I am still stuck on Chapter 8 of The Chosen, and I hit a wall HARD! Right now I have taken a break for a few months to really start reading again and glean ideas from life.
Some new purchases I made to finish out some of my collections include:

Hades By: Alexandra Adornetto
I have not opened this book yet but it is the sequel to her Halo book, and I am looking forward to reading it. The story is different, but I love books that are outside the box, especially when it comes to Angels.
Some more great books:
Crescendo and Silence 
By: Becca Fitzpatrick
Hush Hush was a really good book, 
and I expect the others to be good too.




Also I have been talking about taking classes to help enhance some of the skills I will need to have with the Suicide Prevention/Awareness group we started called For the Broken. So I purchased this book to help with some of the issues I will see and how to appropriately help people in hurting situations.
Helping those who hurt By: Barbara Roberts

Hoping to soon read  this book called 
Purpose for the Pain
(Personal journal  entries and writing of an amazing woman who was going through Rehab.) 
By: Renee Yohe


Hope you get some ideas for reading!! And if you can help inspire me to write OH PLEASE DO!! LOL
Lots of Love,
Shevonne

Writing is harder then it seems...

Really should writing be this hard? I have a complete vision of the Angel Chronicles Series I want to write and have even named all the books and started with the first 8 chapters of the first book in the series, but I have not be able to write since like June. Mind you I am crazy busy but I miss taking the time to write, I miss it. I am horrible at sticking to a schedule, I am an artist so it is all about inspiration LOL. Maybe soon I will be inspired to write more, who knows all I know is this would be a great read if I could just get it all out on paper, or computer!!


Angel Chronicles
The Chosen
The Fallen
The Redeemed

That's the name of the Series and the books, now to just get going with this. Maybe when things settle down, LOL probably won't be getting to this till my kids are in college!

Being a Designer and a lover of Jesus, this is one of the BEST books I have! NO QUESTION...If you think you know the love of Jesus guess again and read this book. BEYOND WORTH IT!!

Being a Writer

You think being a writer has some romanticism to it, let me tell you, it really does not. I have been writing on and off for years, but I am finally going to follow through and finish a book if it kills me. This series will be awesome I just know it, the problem I am having now is the great and terrible writer's block, I have ideas but they aren't translating to page yet. I think really I just have not had the time to sit and process it out. The ideas are on pages scream out at me to put them together, but I tell you I want to just scream back and say, "Write yourself already!" It is my dream to finish this series, and I will, I know in time, but I pray I am not 50 by the time this is over, I would really like to get the first book done this year. Oh please pray for me, this process is not as easy as it sounds. Thank God for books to read, movies to watch, and people who say things which all fuel the creativity in me. Just have to thread it all together. Chapter 8 your going to come out soon, You hear me!

Book Review: Auralia's Colors, Cyndere's Midnight & Raven's Ladder


I will just tell you this set was packed full of adventure. Touching on the trials and tibulations that every human deals with, Hope, pain, loss, fighting for what is right and overcoming the enemy in our lives whatever that may be. I was riveted from the first book and was glad to read them all, I really loved Auralia which I am sure every reader will. This set is much better read in sequence, and well I made the mistake of accidently reading Raven's Ladder before Cyndere's Midnight, I suggest you don't do that. I am hoping there will be another book in the making but time will tell. Give this set 4 stars! Awesome all the way through.
