Review:My colleague had "The Confident Woman" and I was so impressed, I bought several with some of my tithe money to help other woman who might be having struggles to face.But "Beauty to Ashes" tops everything I have ever read. I love how God speaks to me when I pick it up and just open at random. Whatever I am dealing with, God has the answers in these pages. Even my husband reads it. So many people have been abused as children. Ms. Joyce through God gives you a feeling of self worth and more. I love... Read more

Review:I very seldom write reviews for the Kindle books I read. However, I had to make an exception for "Sleepers"! This was absolutely the best book I have read in a long time. Although this true story was shocking and touching, the author also made me laugh as he recounted his experiences in his Catholic school and the interaction with his friends. My heart goes out to all who had to endure such atrocities while incarcerated. I wish this would be made in to a movie. Read more

Marzano masterfully weaves together personal history and the history of a child's tragic murder into a suspenseful and moving true crime drama. She structures the book with extraordinary skill, haunting prose and the precision of an expert lawyer. I ached for the people in this book, for the sometimes awful complexities of life and the terrible things we humans do to each other. Read more

Review:Whether you've been abused or simply wish to understand the world of those who have been, BLACK AND BLUE is a must read. Having been in abusive relationships I found myself relating intensely to Fran's situation. Anna Quindlen's writing style is uniquely amazing as she glides back and forth from Fran's past to what she is going through as she evolves away from her abuser, trying to start fresh and find herself and help her son heal from the tragedies all children suffer when the two people the...
