"Never Let You Go" by Erin Healy is a great read. I usually don't read this type of book but when I read the summary it sounded so interesting that I had to give it a try. It's a story about a Mother raising her 9 year old daughter. Lexi is a Mom that will do anything to protect her daughter Molly even if it means testifying for the man who killed her sister. Lexi is also faced with the return of her ex-husband Grant who left seven years earlier and now has returned with intentions of re-entering their daughters life but Lexi is skeptical of his motives and decides that she can't let him near Molly. This is only the beginning of more hard and difficult times for Lexi and those around her. In addition to the return of her husband she is faced with supernatural events. I found this book to be riveting and so interesting that I couldn't put it down. This is the first book by Erin Healy that I have read but I don't think it will be the last. I found the story and plot easy to follow and the characters were interesting although at times I felt they were a little unbelievable or not very realistic. I think most people who enjoy mysteries and religious undertones will find this book a good read. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Greatest Stories of the Bible is a fantastic collection of 250 of the most well known stories of the bible.  Hardbound and designed as a treasury.  This is not a bible but a heirloom edition which uses portions of scripture taken from the New King James Version.  Stories include: In the Beginning...The Creation of the World, Adam and Eve Challenge God, Noah Saves His Family, Joseph's Coat of Many Colors, The Ten Commandments, Jesus' Birth and many many more.

I loved reading this edition of bible stories.  My favorite version of the bible is the King James Version but I'll be honest at times it's a little hard to get the full meaning.  This beautiful heirloom edition takes the NKJV and puts the stories into easy to understand language without taking anything away from the translation.  You still get scripture and the feel of reading a bible.  This is a great book to have and lends itself to reading out loud to your children or anyone.  I love having this book in my collection.  There are no photos in the book and I admit I would have loved to see some but the stories are told in a way that the imagination creates its own photos.  I would recommend this book to anyone young or old.  It's a great addition to anyone's library and will be treasured for years to come.
