Hosted by StuckInBooks

Thanks for stopping by.

I really do my best to be a positive and optimistic person even with a rough year like I have had. I am so grateful that I have read the following books.  They boosted my spirits in so many ways.

The Secret by Rhonda Byrne

Heaven is for Real by Todd Burpo

The Power of Your Subconscious Mind by Joseph Murphy

Unlock The Power to Heal by  Robert Scott Bell and Ty M Bollinger

BUT my most comforting is my King James Bible my grandmother had given me for my 7th birthday. (One of my most priceless possessions.)

My giveaway is for a $10 Amazon Gift Card. This way you can choose your own books to be grateful for.
