PLEASE, if you haven’t read Pushing The Limits, don’t read this review, this story has a few spoilers for the first book. After I finished Pushing The Limits( you can read my review here), and read the little teaser for Dare You To, I knew I had to get my hands on this book. Beths ...

Review: “God and Boobs” by Angie Wyatt

amandachristine — Thu, 09 May 2013 15:30:13 +0000

So there’s this website/ministry/blog that Justine and I are a little in love with called The Good Women Project. I found the site through social media and immediately fell in love. It’s Christianity, love, sex, and relationships for twenty-first century women. I recommend it to everyone! So when they recommended a book, God and Boobs ...

Review: “Beyond the Power of Love” by Janice Romney

amandachristine — Mon, 06 May 2013 15:30:08 +0000

I first heard of this book through a review request. The memoir’s synopsis mentioned religious abuse, which I thought was an interesting idea, so I decided to accept the review request and give this book a try. Here is the synopsis from its Goodreads profile: Some of Janice Romney’s earliest memories bring back painful images ...

Story-Inspired Experience: Playlist to “Time Between Us” by Tamara Ireland Stone

amandachristine — Fri, 03 May 2013 14:30:50 +0000

It’s been awhile since we’ve done a Story-Inspired Experience post, which are both my favorites and Justine’s favorites to write. There hasn’t been any real reason to this other than that there hasn’t been anything super inspiring. That sounds super dismal but it doesn’t mean at all that the books we’ve been reading haven’t been ...
