Various projects were presented for different times of the year. The directions were clear and easy to follow. The projects can be completed in a weekend or less if you have the materials. I know I will enjoy trying more of her projects.

It's Christmas time again and Weezie Foley is preparing for the annual Savannah historical district decorating contest. However, things are disappearing and someone has been in her shop. This book is a quick and enjoyable read. As an added bonus, the recipes and song playlist are included in the book.

In A Dangerous Love, Bertrice Small takes us to England during the War of the Roses. Adair Radcliffe's parents are killed during the Civil War. She is brought up at the English Court. When she is betrothed by the King to a son of a Lancastrian lord, she runs back to her home. Adair starts to rebuild her home and her life. During a border raid, she is taken as hostage by Scottish raiders and sold into servitude. This is where Small starts to weave her magic. Adair and the border lord Conal Bruce start to fall in love and sparks fly. Small does not let the reader down in describing the romantic encounters. This is Book 1 of the The Border Chronicles. The first two books are tied by the Conal Bruce family, but they can each stand alone.

Nancy Moser is indeed a very talented writer. In her novel "How Do I Love Three, she recounts the real romance story of Elizabeth Barrett Barrett and Robert Browning. Hollywood could not come up with a better romantic script. Moser's writing is taken from the perspective of Elizabeth, known as Ba, to her family and friends. She starts the story when Elizabeth is living in Torquay for her health. This gives the reader much needed background of her life. I knew of the Barrett-Browning story before I read the book, but that didn't lessen my enjoyment. A great retelling of the story!

This book was not what I hoped it would be. I was hoping for the stories people told of their past lives. Instead, what the book explains is the theory of reincarnation, with a few anecdotes to proof his point. I found the author extremely insightful in the differing views of reincarnation. His explanations were lucid and easy to understand. I would have liked more of the people's stories.
