Finding Mercy

(I have a couple books to catch up on that I've read!)


This book.. Finding Mercy by Blaine M. Yorgason

I would say that this was also a decent book. It was definitely not what I was expecting - but I think I liked it better than what I was expecting. The part I didn't like was that the main character was Mexican, and so there were a lot of phrases in Spanish. I don't read Spanish, so it got confusing sometimes! Other than that, it was a great read. I think I would recommend it. Funny story about it. I was reading it one night and a boy dropped by my house to ask me on a date for the next day. He looked at what I was reading and said, 'hey, my uncle wrote that!' Haha, small world!

A Blog Post A Day...

Probably doesn't keep the doctor away. But it does give me something to look forward to… So it has been placed on my Summer Top 50!

Today's post is all about 
Playing for Pizza.


I've decided I want to blog all of the books I read this year. Starting with John Grisham's Playing for Pizza. I like giving my opinions on books, plus… I like remembering what I have read!

So here is what I think about this one:
Good book. Haha. It is a pretty decent book. I wouldn't place it on my top 10 favorite books ever, but it was well written (of course, it is John Grisham). The story line is interesting, and there were times when I would keep reading and postpone other things. I would say, if you have time… not a bad read!
