  Add Killing Time to your for later shelf

  Amanda recently listened to the latest in the Agatha Raisin series - Killing Time. I've read so many of these, and this one just didn't stack up to the others for me. It wasn't R.W. Green either, because I have read others since M.C. Beaton passed.…Read moreRead more of this annotation

• Each Kindness

  Woodson, Jacqueline

  Add Each Kindness to your for later shelf

  Amanda recently read Each Kindness. This book convinced me that adults should be required to read children's books. (Joking, obviously, but this book really opens your eyes and makes you think!) This book is definitely not just for kids. Someone at…Read moreRead more of this annotation

• The Holy Spirit

  Provencher, Devon, 1991-

  Add The Holy Spirit to your for later shelf

  Amanda recently read The Holy Spirit. This was surprisingly informational for a board book. I think it's part of a series called Theology for Babies and it really does read like a text book written for babies. Really interesting little book.

• The Treasure Box

  Keane, David, 1965-

  Add The Treasure Box to your for later shelf

  Amanda recently cried while reading The Treasure Box. This book is beautiful, but you will need tissues. It's the lovely story of a little girl who has wonderful times with her grandfather until he passes away. It made me cry, but it was also really…Read moreRead more of this annotation

• The Grinch

  Add The Grinch to your for later shelf

  Amanda recently watched The Grinch. The classic cartoon and the 2000s Jim Carrey Grinch have always been my family's favorites, but this version is actually so, so sweet! I really enjoy it, especially the Grinch's neighbor and "best friend" and this…Read moreRead more of this annotation

  Add The Santa Clause to your for later shelf

• The Santa Clause 2

  Add The Santa Clause 2 to your for later shelf

  While the first Santa Clause was always our favorite growing up, we've come to really love The Santa Clause 2 where Scott has gone full-Santa and now has to find a Mrs. Claus or risk losing Christmas! This is, of course, over-the-top, but the family…Read moreRead more of this annotation

• The Santa Clause 3. The Escape Clause

  Add The Santa Clause 3. The Escape Clause to your for later shelf

  My family has always been fans of Martin Short (and Tim Allen) so this team-up or rivalry, as it were, just has us cracking up every time we watch it. Martin Short stars as Jack Frost, a bitter old frosty guy who dreams of being Santa Claus and will…Read moreRead more of this annotation
