Compass Rating Scale

5/5 Compasses – Fantastic.  Completely lost in the book – no hope for ever finding my way out until the book is finished!

4/5 Compasses – Loved it.  Lost in the book, but can drag myself away if I absolutely have to.

3/5 Compasses – Pretty Good.  Not really lost in the book, but enjoy reading the book when I have time –  after I finish other social work schooling activities.

2/5 Compasses – It was okay.  Not lost at all.  Finished to finish and see what happened.

1/5 Compass – I was never lost and did not like this book.  I might have not even finished it.  Would choose to do school work over this book.

Lost in a Book after a Day of Social Work

📚 BOOK REVIEW 📚 . I had the pleasure this month of partnering with @suzyapprovedbooktours, @mangopublishing, and @davidlevyauthor to read the book “Life is A Four Letter Word.” When I read the description of this book, I had this feeling that it was going to offer life lessons as well as true life and humor and so I quickly signed up for this tour. SPOILER ALLERT: This book did not disappoint. . In this book, David Levy takes a look back at his life through 40 different essays about events that happened throughout his life that taught him life lessons. Written in chronological order, the reader is able to follow David’s life from a young child and through adulthood and learn those valuable lessons through the reflections he has about his life as well as wisdom that he can provide from those experiences. . REVIEW As I stated above, when I chose to be part of this tour, I had this feeling that this self-help books was going to be different and let me tell you I was totally right!!! David Levy presents a fantastic sequence of short essays about his life that provided me with valuable life lessons to thinks about. This book did not lecture me or give me advice at every turn, but made me relate to and think about the story David told as well as the life lesson being presented. Some of the life lessons hit home closer than others, but all of the life lessons really made me think. I must admit that some of them were so good that I committed the ultimate sin while reading a book of folding down the page corner!!! I know, I am terrible and should probably go to book jail, however the lessons were so good that I know I will go back to them for years to come. David’s writing style and stories about his life have a way of capturing you and making you think about things in a quiet manner, which I really enjoyed. There was no pointing fingers or “yelling” through the pages of a book…it was just quiet, wise advice. I really hope David Levy comes out with more books like this in the future, because I would definitely pick them up and get lost in those books, just as I did in this book! . 🧭🧭🧭🧭🧭/5
📚BOOK REVIEW 📚 . Meet Elaine and Ethan. They are newly weds, married at Christmas, and their plan is to wait to start a family until they are ready. However, Elaine discovers she is pregnant and is hesitant to tell Ethan as she is not sure how he will react. Ethan however surprises Elaine by accepting the pregnancy and soon to be parenthood with open arms and excitement. . At a prenatal exam, Elaine and Ethan find out devastating news that will change their lives as they know them. Their charmed relationship and lives are about to crash down around them. . With Christmas coming soon and Elaine due to give birth right around that time, will a Christmas wish come true for the couple or will everything they built end up as rubble? . I really enjoyed this book!!! Kemberlee Shortland did a great job pulling you in on the first page and left you wanting more on the last. My only issue with this book is that it was a short story. . 🧭🧭🧭🧭/5 .

In 2019 @lavillafanewriter sent me a copy of her book The Other Gloria. I unfortunately had to put off reading this book due to finishing my social work degree. However, now that I graduated and passed my state exam, this book is at the top of my TBR stack for 2020!!! Can’t wait to read it!!! . #theothergloria #lavillafane #tbr #2020reads #bookstagram #booksharks #booknerd #toomanybooksnotenoughtime
