Annie's People #1: The Preacher's Daughter by Beverly Lewis
Annie's People #1: The Preacher's Daughter

T.K. Elliott, August 6, 2008

ANY BOOK THAT BEVERLY LEWIS WRITES IS AWESOME.
These books can be read by all ages. They are clean and honest. They take you into a way of life most don't understand, While you read these series of books you will discover that even though they live very different lives than most of us they deal with the very same issues.. The major difference is the way that they deal with them. We could all maybe learn a thing or two about dealing with issues in a simpler more honest manor.

The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards
The Memory Keeper's Daughter

T.K. Elliott, August 6, 2008

The Memory Keepers Daughter is one of the most beautiful stories that will touch you in ways that you will never forget.
It takes you back to a time when having a retarded child was a disgrace and only shame was felt.
Kim my hero.
Shows that not only was/is there no disgrace in having a child who is not what theworld calls perfect. The turns and twists of this book will leave you smiling,crying and wondering how and why on earth did/do people feel this way. I have a stepdaughter who has Downs. She is the most awesome woman you will ever want to meet and anyone who say's she not perfect is crazy .

The Kindness of Strangers by Katrina Kittle
The Kindness of Strangers

T.K. Elliott, August 6, 2008

This book will leave you with your eyes wide open. Katrina Kittle has gone where many of the other writers out there wouldn't dare go.
You will find yourself mesmerized to this story to find out what happened and what will happen.

Angel's Rest by Charles Davis

Mr Davis....

What can I say I'm waiting for your next work of art. Your choice of subject and character are so very awesome. I read about 100 or more books a year and this by far is the best book I've read all year.


I didn't put the book down for a minute.
Read it from cover to cover. The characters come to life as you read each page.
