When I first received this book, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I am fascinated by the stories of World War II so I knew a little bit of what to expect and that it wasn’t going to be an easy read. I wasn’t at all familiar with how life was for the Dutch that were living in what been Dutch-occupied Indonesia. It very eye-opening and will reveal what war expects of children in the maelstrom. I learned a lot through the eyes of Jeremiah Prins. This, however, will forever be added to my bookshelf.

If you’re looking for a book that contains real characters and real stories, then perhaps this book is for you. If you’re looking for a light read, this won’t be one of those. You will find yourself crying, laughing, and overjoyed all at the same time. God has His hand all throughout the book even when it seems like there is hope. Life won’t be easy and their problems will not go away overnight, but they know that there is hope that there will be healing. It’s a wonderful read that you won’t be able to put down. I felt as if I was right there with Gracie and Carmen as they shared their stories.

Oh No, Not Another Book Blog…

Hi there! Welcome to my very first blog post! I’ve never written a blog before so I’m in the learning process. This first blog post is to share with you about my goals for this blog. Recently I have had the opportunity to be on the street team for one of the authors that I enjoy reading by helping her promote her new release. Through this experience I have really enjoyed learning about different ways to promote her book. Reading has always been a passion of mine and I would really love to help other authors, especially ones who aren’t known very well, and help them promote their books. Maybe one day I’ll even have some author interviews.

What Kind of Books Will I Find?

Anything that has inappropriate content such as sexually explicit, violent, or cruel language will most likely not be reviewed. However, I hope to provide a mixture of different genres such as fiction, romance, fantasy, adventure, christian, and so forth. If there is an author or book that you would love to see featured on this blog feel free to suggest one.

How Often Will You Post?

I was thinking I would post around once or twice a month. I haven’t decided yet. Suggestions are more than welcome!

Thank you so much for taking your time to check out my new blog! I hope that you’ll come back and check it again sometime!
