The Curse of Jean Lafitte by Mary Walsh
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
The Curse of Jean Lafitte was such a fun book! I love historical books, but when they collide with the present day it so much fun to read. The world building was awesome and so much detail was given for the characters, yet it never got bogged down or slow. Right from the beginning I was hooked, and could not put the book down! Would absolutely read more by this author.
Dancing Butterfly by Debra Parmley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Dancing Butterfly is the second book in the Butterflies Fly Free Series. This one follows Suki that we met for a short time in book 1, although it is something of a prequel as well. While in book 1, Suki was already with Frank, in book 2 it shows their meeting and the beginning of their relationship.
This was an easy read and enjoyable, light on the spice so would be appropriate for YA. I do love books that take a unique time period and bring it to life and this series does that well.
A Miracle In Muffin: A True Story by Darlene Duemo
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A Miracle In Muffin: A True Story was a sweet story about finding a missing kitten thought lost forever and finding salvation.
This book is meant to be a children’s story; however, it does read a little too advanced or mature for younger children and I feel would be too “kiddish” for older children. I’m honestly not sure what age category this would fall into. It’s a sweet story and an easy read.
