Yesterday I was given a Kindle by my husband. It’s my Valenteine’s Day gift and I’m obsessed with it. In the last 24 hours I have read an entire novel on that thing. It’s awesome. The book I read was even awesomer! (IS TOO A WERD!)
Learning to Stand by Claudia Hall Christian is the 2nd book in her Alex the Fey series. I became enamored of the characters in the first book. The second book just increased my desire to learn more about them! Claudia does a great job of furthering their story, giving the characters some growth and leading us down the rabbit hole of Black Ops. I really enjoyed it! I can’t WAIT for the next installment… which is a year a way… Ummmm… yeah… it’s a good thing I have 11 other books on my Kindle at the moment so I can keep busy while I wait.
I suggest Claudia’s books to anyone that enjoys, mystery, action, adventure all wrapped up with a lil romance and house wife porn thrown in for good measure!!!!
I was not compensated in any way for this post. I purchased Learning to Stand by Claudia Hall Christian from Amazon for my Kindle. I just really, really like the books!
CitizenJaney is at it again over at Confessions of a Middle Aged Suburban Diva! She has set the next Being Bodacious Challenge!
Here’s her task!
“So, my bodacious sistahs – this week, we all want to know what your personal theme song is… and why you chose it. Why it speaks to you and for you. How it makes you feel.”
The song I chose sums up my philosophy on friends and family. It’s also a very natural part of who I am. I’m a care giver, a nurturer by nature. The very first time I heard this song I cried like a baby… an angry, hungry baby! (Points if you can name the movie that’s from!)
I’ll Be – Reba McEntire
When darkness falls upon your heart and soul.
I’ll be the light that shines for you.
When you forget how beautiful you are
I’ll be there to remind you.
When you can’t find your way,
I’ll find my way to you.
When troubles come around,
I will come to you.
I’ll be your shoulder when you need someone to lean on.
Be your shelter.
When you need someone to see you through.
I’ll be there to carry you.
I’ll be there.
I’ll be the rock that will be strong for you.
The one that will hold on to you.
When you feel that rain falling down.
When there’s nobody else around.
I’ll be.
And when you’re there with no one there to hold.
I’ll be the arms that reach for you.
And when you feel your faith is running low.
I’ll be there to believe in you.
When all you find are lies.
I’ll be the truth you need.
When you need someone to run to .
You can run to me
I’ll be your shoulder when you need someone to lean on.
Be your shelter.
When you need someone to see you through.
I’ll be there to carry you.
I’ll be there.
I’ll be the rock that will be strong for you.
The one that will hold on to you.
When you feel that rain falling down.
When there’s nobody else around.
I’ll be.
I’ll be the sun.
When your heart’s filled with rain.
I’ll be the one.
To chase the rain away.
I’ll be your shoulder when you need someone to lean on.
Be your shelter.
When you need someone to see you through.
I’ll be there to carry you.
I’ll be there.
I’ll be the rock that will be strong for you.
The one that will hold on to you.
When you feel that rain falling down.
When there’s nobody else around.
I’ll be.
I’ll be.
