Review: Take Two by Karen Kingsbury

Title: Take Two by Karen Kingsbury
Series: Above The Line
Publisher: Zondervan
Source: publisher (thank you Zondervan)
Purchase: Barnes & Noble or Christian Book
Rating: 4.5/5



Synopsis
taken from bn.com

The second book in the Above the Line series finds independent filmmakers Chase Ryan and Keith Ellison at the center of Hollywood wheeling and dealing. The two friends discover that all that glitters is not gold—and that success in Tinsel Town could cost them everything—their relationships as well as their ideals.


My Thoughts:

Karen Kingsbury has done it again! Take Two is about the trials that Kelly (Keith's wife) goes through while Keith is in Hollywood editing The Last Letter with Chase. Does Kelly leave Keith or does she turn her life back over to God?

Keith and Chase meet with NTM to discuss a new movie called Unlocked. Do they get the chance to produce it or does someone steal the idea as their own? And what happens with Bailey, Andi, Tim & Cody?

Review: You Changed My Life by Max Lucado




Title: You Changed My Life by Max Lucado
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Source: Book Sneeze
Rating: 4/5





Synopsis (from barnes and noble):

If someone has changed your life for the good, now is the time to celebrate by letting them know how much they matter.


Oftentimes true heroes of faith don't stand out in the world, but they have made a lasting difference in someone's life-they're a hero to someone.
This gift book celebrates their story by first providing a dedication beginning with "You changed my life by___" to be written in detail by the giver to the recipient. To follow are stories told by Max about others who have answered the call of their convictions and took steps of faith (both big and small)
resulting in lasting change in the lives around them. It's a message that honors the person who receives the book, and inspires us all to see that real people with remarkable hearts can change lives.


My Thoughts:
You Changed My Life is a beautiful read. It has different short stories about how people have changed their lives. If you purchase You Changed My Life I reccoment getting two copies, one for yourself and one for a friend who has changed your life!
