A Chaplain’s Duty: Letters Home from a WWII Chaplain

The Book of Tomorrow
Written by Cecelia Ahern Oh, hey! I’m back. Can’t promise I’ll do any better at posting than I have been, but I’ll try! I’m headed to Ireland in a few days for a vacation. On a whim, and getting excited about finally getting a vacation, I decided to swing by the library and pick up a book or two. …

Written by Jamie Brenner The last time I visited my sister, she gave me a stack of books. No, really. A stack. I slid a few in my suitcase, a few in my Harrods tote, and had to come back for the rest. I feel bad because I keep reading stuff she wouldn’t like (Nonfiction,…

I knew nothing about the story, and in fact didn’t even know it was based on a book until my grandmother handed it to me. I’m so glad she did because this book provided more detail and insight into the whole situation.
