Love, Lexi: Letters to God by Sherry Kyle



What is a girl to do when her rival wants to nab the attention of the one boy she’s liked since he shared his peanut butter sandwich with her in the first grade? Love, Lexi follows seventh grader Alexis Dawn Cooper (Lexi) as she navigates middle school and being a middle child. But this is no ordinary middle-school novel. Love, Lexi is a unique combination of a fictional story combined with a devotional and journal to allow readers to watch Lexi learn to seek God first above all else, while writing their own letters to God. Love, Lexi draws young people into Lexi’s life as they contemplate their own place in God’s eyes.

This book is in a devotional book format. You read a journal/letter and then you apply it to yourself.

For example:
Lexi talks about how she is worried about talking to a boy.
Then there is an interpretation of Philippians 4:6-7 and then you are able to write what you are worried about and how you are going to be better at trusting God.

I think this book was really cute. Lexi goes through a lot of things that girls in middle school go through. It is important for girls at that age to realize that God loves them and learn how to develop a relationship with God. I did not do the journaling but I did journal during middle school in a format similar to this book and I was helped A LOT. This book does have some extreme circumstances but also a lot of real experiences and fears that I went through in middle school.
I highly recommend this book to any middle school or even high school girl. There are some parts that are silly but over all it helps a lot with figuring out how to have a relationship with God. This book is available for purchase. Buy on amazon.com!
I received a free copy of this book from Tyndale House Publishers for a honest review in return.

A Noble Masquerade by Kristi Ann Hunter

I'm one of those people who always has my nose in a book, I used to say I can't pick a favorite book but now I can. And I can never get tired of this book! I own both the kindle and audible book. I no joke read it around 3 times a month, it never gets old :) I love the characters, the plot and conversations. Miranda is one of those ladies where it is hard for her to control her emotions and the man she loves can see her in a way no one else can. He understands that it is hard for her to keep her spitfire temper in check. They always have witty banters and are constantly doing things to throw off the other's plan to make them mad. But behind all this plotting they both know they love each other and in the end there is a very wonderful Happily Ever After. Book 3 also shows some of their story. I love all the books in this series and would recommend reading all of them!

Court of Midnight and Deception by K.M. Shea

  Summary of Book 1 below my review.   Do you ever read a book and just instantly love the characters? That is what happens every time I read a K.M. Shea book! I don't know how long ago it was when I discovered her books, but I love every single one of them. I recently re-read her Court of Midnight and Deception Series and I enjoyed every moment of it! I really love it when you can re-read books and you want to keep reading because the book is just that good.   The book is set in the USA but there are magical beings walking around with humans. Leila, the main character, is half human and half Fae. She is suddenly told that she is the queen of a kingdom of Fae known as the Night Court. She has such a fun personality, once she realizes that she has to be queen she puts 100% into it and just keeps on being her happy, sarcastic self. I couldn't stop laughing at the many funny situations Leila gets into and the many funny things she says. I also love her inner circle, ea...
