Susan Joyce has and adventures and then some in her memoir, Good Morning Diego Garcia. Some of those experiences include local cuisines, and her cooking is unbelievable as she has learned so much using exotic herbs and spices. Her memoir is a touching tribute of the amazing travel stories with her husband. They made plans on their travels but then life happens, and one must do what they can. I loved how she wrote about life in Sri Lanka, and she writes detailed descriptions of the places she has been. I was intrigued by the boating adventures when traveling from Sri Lanka to the Seychelles and beyond to other places. Susan’s beliefs help her and her husband along the way. The sentences are well written and the places written so well that I felt I was actually there! Solid five stars from me!

I am the presenting guest/speaker on Sunday, May 22, 2016. I have lots to share and prizes to win!!! Please click on this link, We Love Memoirs, and you will in the right group to attend this worldwide event!

I found “Finding Gina” to be a nice romance read combined with humor, and I was compelled to read it to the end! Not all books grab my attention like this one did so that. Itself, garners stars from me. The protagonist, stuck in her past, discovers that her future is what she chooses to make of it. I felt like I was right there, in many places, and maybe drinking a spot of tea myself while reading each paragraph. At times this book was whimsical, and I think that some areas could have been left out, and the story would be strengthened by doing so, without taking anything away from the story itself. Since I can’t give the book four and a half stars, and due to my reaction, being compelled to read it to the end, I must give five stars!

This book is about how Shadow, a small dog, and his three squirrel friends, Big Whitey, Little Whitey, and their uncle Stubby, go on a camping adventure. This story book teaches children about camping, boating safety, and it also illustrates why children should always listen and learn from the adults in their lives.

S. Jackson’s second book in their new Shadow series, “Shadow and Friends Go Camping” was an enjoyable read from page one! I As I read this book, I could feel a smile on my face,
at the antics of one small dog and her squirrel friends. I will read this story again and again to my grandchildren. This would make a wonderful children’s story for my church. Thank you for your efforts in making this a such a lovely book, and the graphics are awesome…

Advocating For Your Child:

Parents need to know the normalcy of the abnormal situations in a teaching or other hospital. The key is to pick the battle, the right ones, and not the smaller ones, or you alienate nurses and medical students. Let the minor stuff go on pass….. but be a advocate when situations call for it such as the following.

Examples: Advocate for your child taken off oxygen when they shouldn’t have been, having another’s child’s medication running into your child, or a medical student trying for the 10th time to draw blood from your child ~ you must advocate in these kinds of situations.
