Life of St. Monica - F.A. Forbes - A Short Summary and Review

Image
  A short summary of Life of St. Monica: A biography of St. Augustine's Mother. My favorite quote from St. Monica: "Nothing is far from God." Questions to ponder while reading the book: Do you have patience with your children? How closely do you adhere to your faith? My review of Life of St. Monica: A great look into the mother of a great saint. A short quick biography. Very intertwined with the life and history of St. Augustine. **************************************** a.d. elliott is a wanderer, writer, and photographer currently living in Salem, Virginia.  In addition to the travel writings at  www.takethebackroads.com , you can also read her book reviews at  www.riteoffancy.com  and US military biographies at  www.everydaypatriot.com Her online photography gallery can be found at  shop.takethebackroads.com #TaketheBackRoads Like my page?

When We Were Gods - Colin Falconer - A Short Summary and Review

Image
A short summary of When We Were Gods: The life and lovers of Cleopatra. My favorite quote from the book: "Nothing was ever lost by generosity." Questions to ponder while reading the book: Do you believe in power? Do you believe in justice? My review of When We Were Gods: A fun read about Cleopatra. A great look into the "whys." I'm still not sure I would have made the choices she did. **************************************** a.d. elliott is a wanderer, writer, and photographer currently living in Salem, Virginia.  In addition to the travel writings at  www.takethebackroads.com , you can also read her book reviews at  www.riteoffancy.com  and US military biographies at  www.everydaypatriot.com Her online photography gallery can be found at  shop.takethebackroads.com #TaketheBackRoads Like my page?

Diary of an American Exorcist - Stephen J. Rossetti - A Short Summary and Review

Image
  A short summary of the book Diary of an American Exorcist: Tales of demon fighting and the effect on the people possessed. My favorite Stephen J. Rossetti Quote from the book: God is never outdone in generosity. Questions to ponder while reading the book: Do you have inner peace? Are you alone? My review of Diary of an American Exorcist: Much to think about. Much to pray about. Much to fight against. **************************************** a.d. elliott is a wanderer, writer, and photographer currently living in Salem, Virginia.  In addition to the travel writings at  www.takethebackroads.com , you can also read her book reviews at  www.riteoffancy.com  and US military biographies at  www.everydaypatriot.com Her online photography gallery can be found at  shop.takethebackroads.com #TaketheBackRoads Like my page?
