Look at Me

Another book finished, and to be honest, I am a little stuck with this one. I do not know how to feel with the end result. I am beginning to wonder if I am just not a fan of the beginnings of books because, again, Look at Me started out funky for me. Look at […]

Songbird Under a German Moon

Oh, Christian fiction, how bittersweet the genre is; if we were going off of book cover appearances, this book would have been perfect for me: WWII era, faith-based, I do not know how to go beyond that.
