Sky book note

February 6th, 2008 by Rachel

Felicia Sullivan was the guest on tonight’s Motherhood Uncensored Blog Talk Radio, talking about her amazing book The Sky Isn’t Visible from Here: Scenes from a Life. I was able to chat with her for a few minutes during the show, so you can hear my voice by listening to the show. The whole show is great, but I love the end of the show especially, when Kristen and Felicia discuss the book being a difficult read at times, but overall an uplifting read. Please scroll down to read my review, and don’t forget to visit ParentBloggers for a chance to win a copy of Sky!

Book Notes – Updates for Two Reviews

January 14th, 2008 by Rachel

• I recently finished reading The Ruby Kingdom – Passage to Mythrin to my daughters. Here is an update to that review:

Addendum: When we finished the series, the girls thought that Book 2 becoming available in May for BG’s birthday was perfect. They also said that it was the best book I had read to them – even better than Harry Potter! They now want to become shape-shifters when they grow up…

• I worked in conjunction with Felicia Sullivan of Writers Revealed to interview Carol Muske-Dukes. Carol is the author of Channeling Mark Twain: A Novel, which I reviewed here. My interview, conducted via email, is now available.

Sorry for the outage, folks

Things will be returning to normal soon. We hope. :)

New Server, nice people, it’ll just take a few days for the archives to come back up. Please bear with us!
