First of all, it should be noted that this book is slightly misclassified. It is listed as: Juvenile Fiction/Social Issues/Dating & Sex; instead I found it to also be highly Christian-ized. However, I do believe it should be required reading for anyone around dating age.
It is full of wonderful advice and wisdom for young dating adolescents. It also has an excellent time line of dating styles through history; which surprised me. Just this information would help young people more appreciate the freedom they are given now in dating and relationships with the opposite sex.
The book covers every type of relationship a young person could find themselves in and clearly identifies unhealthy relationship types and problems.
I would especially recommend the book for young ladies, as they would then know the difference between a healthy and unhealthy relationship, answering their questions about what is right and wrong for a young person's relationships.
I am a adult and was surprised to find some of the information and advice in this book helpful even for myself although I am not Christian.
I highly recommend this book.
(Note: Publisher provided free copy of this book for my review.)

Book Review: Illegals Subject: Illegal Immigration
First of all this book deserves to be read simply because lives were put in jeopardy to create it. I believe it to be a well researched warning to natural born Americans. Our systems and government is already sinking in debt. And in this book we find that while the government estimates 9 million illegal immigrants in the US... an independent panel puts the actual count at 20 million or more.
Do not take me wrong, these poor people live abhorrent conditions and the author, Darrrell Ankarlo, sugar coats nothing. You will feel as you are there in the danger zone also. You will cry for the Mexican people and their circumstances. But you'll also realize there is already too many legal immigrants, dragging our system down.
You'll come to discover that "yes" is the wrong answer but so is an uncaring, resounding "no".
I highly recommend this book to anyone concerned about illegal immigration issues.
The author goes on to point the finger the US government... The whole book reads like a real life adventure. There is danger, intrigue; even a language barrier. But the end of the book is to be treasured. You will want to add this book to your library. It makes the issues so much clearer.

The BIG Hobby Lobby Order....
Well, I placed my large order. Spent about $75.00. The shipping took a very long time!!! I was surprised considering the shipping cost was so much higher. (Not because of the order itself but because their shipping special had expired.) However, everything arrived in one piece. They have impeccable packaging. There wasn't a chance anything could have been broken in the box. Everything was fair to good quality in direct relation to the cost of the items price. Here was my order:

Hobby Lobby Webstore Orders
9/22/2010- I placed an online order for several different colored gift tissue paper packs and 100 chenille stems for making elaborate paper flowers. I'm pleased to say that the order arrived very quickly and well packed, despite their non-fragile nature. The items were also all of good quality, especially for the prices.
9/27/2010- With one order of good quality and perfect shipping to their merit, I felt confident in placing a much larger order to replenish my basic craft needs... I'll see how it goes and let everyone know...
