A girlfriend of mine posted a few book reviews on her blog, and I thought it was a great idea. I've read about three books in the past couple of weeks. All three of them were AWESOME. Here are my reviews...

This book by Robin Parrish was about a NASA crew sent to Mars for a 2 year mission. When they returned back to Earth, they found that every person and animal had disappeared. The book follows the crew of the Mars Mission as they try to find out where everyone went. It was a quick read. The story only covers about a week of time and it has a lot of action in it. You will be very surprised when you find out where everyone has gone.

This book by, Karen Kingsbury, deals with a very hot subject - Abortion. Karen Kingsbury is a Christian writer whom I totally love! Her books always leave me wanting to hear more from her. This book recalls the history of a young couple and how they are able to move on in their adult lives. It's a very touching story that illustrates the love and forgiveness of God.

This book, also by Karen Kingsbury, had me in tears as I read it. It is a story about a teenage boy with Autism. In the story he reconnects with a friend from his childhood, before he was diagnosed with Autism. Holden (the boy) and Ella (friend) develop a friendship that gets him to break free from the chains of Autism. It was one of the most touching stories I have read in a very long time. I haven't cried so much from a book since A Walk To Remember!
