Beautiful illustrations. Moving story with a twist at the end

Her famous painting has thorns around her neck. She died young and her house now has all her pictures for people to see, and she painted when she had a pain in her back.

Beautiful reflections from Bible verses - from all of the Church s liturgical seasons. The author is well known to readers of MAGNIFICAT.

A great historical fiction adventure based on a local author's family history.

Aurora centers around a Carrington Event in the modern world, wiping out all electricity to the world. It tells it's tale on a local level, therefore, we only get to glimpse a small community reaction. As a fan of David Koepp, author of Cold Storage and screenwriter for many Hollywood blockbuster monster movies, I was expecting a more dynamic story and characters. This story had very predictable characters and an easily cracked underlying mystery.

The main character is Brystal Evergreen. In this book Brystal starts out as a normal girl. As a girl she liked to read books,but her kingdom doesn’t allow females to read. Since she can’t read she applies to a job at the library dusting . One day she finds a magical book.A couple days after she finds herself learning how to be a fairy and learning all kinds of magic,and she has many adventures after.I liked this book because it was entertaining,fun,and suspenseful. I didn't have one favorite part of the book because I liked all of it. There are also The Tale Of Witchcraft,and The Tale Of Sorcery if you are looking for more books like the Tale Of Magic.

I like how in the story it explained the person came from the moon and was a mix of realistic fiction, science fiction and fantasy.

A graphic novel about a young couple dealing with unsuccessful pregnancy; despite their heartbreak they solidify their relationship and move forward to create a new life together. Many symbolic water images in the illustrations.

Found at the vacation house that we rented in 2025 June. I read the June chapter for the Summer Reading Challenge short story or essay square. What a great writer! He really captures nature and is so engaging. Makes me want to stand in a forest quietly and take it all in. Beautiful! Wish I could take the book home.

Eh it wasn't for me. But it did have a lot of interesting facts sprinkled in it.
