The Beautiful Pretender by Melanie Dickerson, Cymplified!

June 16, 2016 by ceemee

the beautiful pretender cymplified book review

We are all carrying a picture of ourselves - it's pre-painted based on our statuses in life or on how far our experiences have taken us. For Avelina, the heroine in The Beautiful Pretender, it's the former as her father was a former stable master and she worked as a maidservant. For Lord Thornbeck, it's inheriting the margravate and having a slight handicap. These pictures they carried have a strong impact on the way they see themselves. It also affects their decisions and the future they … [Read more...]

The Hearts We Mend by Kathryn Springer, Cymplified!

book reviews the hearts we mend

Mothers have specific seasons in their lives. In my life, it's the season of school-aged children, whom I am continually teaching, molding, guiding and lifting up to the Lord in prayer. In the book The Hearts We Mend by Kathryn Springer, the heroine, Evie's season was something I have yet to experience. I know I will experience it in the future - her grown-up son getting married and leaving her nest. Reading about it is one of way of gaining insight. God meets us in our messes. That's what I … [Read more...]

Glimmer Girls: A Dolphin Wish by Natalie Grant, Cymplified!

a dolphin wish book review

If I were 10 years old, I would really love to go to an adventure park like the one in San Diego as vividly described in this book. It would be great to watch pirate shows, ride exciting rides and look at sea animals in their natural habitats. Many kids, like my own, love animals. It's always fun for us to visit zoos and water parks. A Dolphin Wish was for children who love animals and have the hearts to see them safe. Mia, the eldest of the Glimmer kids, was just that. She especially liked … [Read more...]

Glimmer Girls: London Art Chase by Natalie Grant, Cymplified!

March 17, 2016 by ceemee

london art chase book review

Each person seeks his true self, her sparkle, his gift to the world, her purpose in life. That's what Maddie, aged 10, was figuring out in London Art Chase, and what I'm still figuring out at 34 years of age. It must be a middle child thing. Another thing we have in common is that we like to draw. At least, I did before I started adulthood. I realized that I am a stickler for following rules because when someone did what she was not supposed to, I felt uncomfortable. But, I know that stories … [Read more...]

The Golden Braid by Melanie Dickerson, Cymplified!

February 8, 2016 by ceemee

the golden braid book review

Guess which character the title refers to? :-D Confession: I still love fairytales! I still look forward to Disney releases of princess stories. I still like reading books about royalty. If I could get away with wearing long billowing dresses, I would! The Golden Braid... is a retelling of the story of Rapunzel. I watched Disney's Tangled so I kept picturing Gothel like the one in the animated movie, clever and crazy, dark and dangerous. It's really a miracle that Rapunzel grew up as a … [Read more...]

hands free life book review

What is a hands free life? Would you choose to do that one more thing on your to-do list? Or would you choose to savor that one more day with your loved ones?

Rachel shares stories of moments that held realizations and lessons for her. I am inspired by her Hands Free journey, and … [Read more...]
