Book #1 Mystically Wired

My first book review and I wish it was a good one. I received "Mystically Wired" from Booksneeze to read and review. I was very excited to start the book but about 50 pages in, I was ready to put it down. The concept is good. We are all wired to pray and our brains want to pray, they just need help. I feel like prayer is spontaneous and doesn't need a timeline or structure concept for it to matter to God. Mr. Wilson did give good ideas on how to send prayer up above, but prayer, I believe prayer is personal and is sacred to people. How they choose to talk to God is their choice. I finished the book and the problem I have is instead of just talking to God, after reading the book, I am constantly wondering if I am doing it right. God doesn't care how we come to Him, just as long as we come to him with open eyes and open hearts. These types of books are a dime a dozen. It all depends on what you are looking for.

A new adventure!

It is no secret...I love to read. I have since Kindergarten. Books have always littered my room and taken me away from the realities of my life. In high school, when I was forced to read for AP Englsh class, I began to resent reading. With all the quizzes, papers and tests I was given about the books, I felt like reading was a means to an end and not enjoyable. Luckily, in college, my fondness for reading came back and the library has become an old friend.

My absolute favorite book of all time is "Gone with the Wind" hence the title of my blog. The last line of the book that is uttered by Scarlett is "Tomorrow is another day." Well, I love to read and have been known to finish a boom in a day, so today is one book, tomorrow is another book!

I hope you enjoy this journey that you are taking with me!
