My Review of Retreat to Folly by Missy Fillion

Retreat to Folly (Jesus on Folly, #1)Retreat to Folly by Missy Fillion
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Are you a mother? Ever felt like all you do is change diapers and clean up messes? Ever feel like you have no purpose outside of being a mommy? Ever looked in the mirror and not recognized your reflection? If you answer yes, you will identify with Susan, who is in desperate need for a retreat. But she's also in need of a savior. Jesus. This book reads a lot like a self help book. There's not a whole lot of dialogue. It's mainly telling versus showing, but that's not a bad thing for this story. The author does a great job getting the reader to relate to Susan. There were times I felt like the author had read my own journal. As a mother of three, this book really helped me. If you're a mom, give it a read.

MY REVIEW OF FIFTY SHADES OF FAITHFUL BY MARY C. FINDLEY

Picture
Fifty Shades of Faithful is a collection of humorous and touching short stories that celebrate the Godly institution of marriage. I was privileged enough to get to be one of the first to read this collection. It was an honor I must say. As a marriage counselor in training, books like these make me want to do back flips! This is the kind of thing to get excited about! If you're married, this is a must-read. Why? Because it talks about sex! That's right! SEX! But not in a perverted or graphic way. Findley does an excellent job with these short stories; each one having its own issue that a lot of marriages face: adultery, abuse, fornication, selfishness, and more. And to add to those issues, these stories have a mixture of surprises. You will laugh, you might cry, but you will definitely turn the pages. And if you're like me, you'll be asking Findley when the next installment will be out. The Christian literary world needs more books like these! Marriage can and should be fun! All marriages will have trials, but there is hope! Do yourself a favor and grab this book as soon as it is released! Get updates by visiting the Facebook page here.

    I love to write fiction and fantasy with a twist of faith.  I usually focus on a young adult audience, but have ventured into some mature stories as well.  But, you don't have to be young to enjoy my writing, just young at heart.
