Review: A Memory Between Us by Sarah Sundin

A Memory Between Us (Wings of Glory, #2)A Memory Between Us by Sarah Sundin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this 2nd book in the Wings of Glory series ... as much as I enjoyed the first. The stories are well written with just enough flying jargon to make you feel like you're there, but not so much that you're lost or bored. Looking forward to the third book in the series.

Starting a new school year ...


 It's been a whirlwind around here the past few weeks, getting ready for school, and then this week starting school.  Overall, the first week went relatively smoothly.  Hopefully the rest of the school year will go the same.  Jonathan is in Miss Nartker's 3rd grade class, and David has Mr. Hoyle for his homeroom teacher.  He also has Mrs. Deja and Mrs. Heller, but that's going to change in the next week, as Mrs. Heller is going to be moving to 4th grade and a teacher we've had on layoff, Mrs. Eldred, is coming back.

Jonathan is playing football this year.  David is running Cross Country.  Jonathan had his first game today.  They lost 22-0.  He didn't get a lot of playing time, but he's one of the younger kids on the team.  I'm hoping he'll get more and more as the weeks go on.

Hope everyone is enjoying the cooler weather.

Review: A Distant Meoldy by Sarah Sundin

A Distant Melody  (Wings of Glory, #1)A Distant Melody by Sarah Sundin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved this debut novel by Sarah Sundin. The characters seemed real and were likeable, and the story was different from anything I've ever read before, taking place during WWII. Looking forward to reading the next two books in the series.
