The Holy Invitation

 

Another one where I will just give my quick thoughts...

A very easy, swift read that gives some overall ideas about the temple.

Mostly meant for those who are preparing to enter for the first time but I did think it was also a good perspective and reminder for those who are more familiar with temple worship.

I would easily recommend it.

Far Above Rubies

 

I am not going to give this my usual ratings but rather just record that I read it and would easily recommend it.

It is a beautiful and in depth take on the proverb and very well presented by Sister Hall.

Would Not Recommend

I don't know if I was just in a bad mood or what but I did not love this book :(

I wanted to like it...crime on an old fashioned train in the Scottish Highlands?  Yes please!

However, multiple times while reading I thought about not finishing because it was so sickeningly sweet.  The only thing that kept me going was the mystery.  I WAS able to call the murderer which is always a triumph :) but seriously, the dialogue was way too much and, frankly, unbelievable at times.

I don't remember feeling this way about the first in the series so it surprised me that I had such strong feelings about this one.

I would have a hard time recommending this book.
