Wild at Heart: Discovering the Secret of a Man's Soul by John Eldredge

I received a copy of this book from Thomas Nelson Publishers and I found it to be quite a fascinating read! This book not only speaks to men, but it speaks to women as well, and it really gave me a deep understanding of the heart of a man and the stereotypes that men really struggle with. Not just Christian men but all men. Very informative and thought provoking! This book has a wonderful message. I feel it really encourages men to be true to who they are while encouraging men to see themselves as they really are. Not only does this book give me a better understanding of men and provide insight into a man's heart, but it is also very nurturing and encouraging. I wasn't sure what to expect when I first started reading this book, but I am so glad I read it! Wild at Heart: Discovering the Secret of a Man's Soul is a very encouraging and inspiring read that both men and women can benefit from. It is truly a treasure. It has been such an interesting and enlightening read for me that I am definitely going to purchase many copies of this book for friends and family.

Wishing you love and happy reading...

Mansfield Park by Jane Austen

I have mentioned this book before and I have finally found a copy. While this was a very compelling story, it was slow at first, but it was certainly worth the wait. I found the character of Fanny Price to be quite fascinating. I very much enjoy Austen's style of writing as I can really sense the characters and the many ways Fanny Price evolves as a character. Each character has such interesting qualities and that makes for a very compelling story. I enjoyed this book very much. Very interesting read!

So I made the move. Phew.

This is my new blog! From benthusiast to booksenthusiast there's been a lot of time put into the switch and a lot of heart. I am excited to get started on another exciting chapter. Benthusiast was a wonderful experience for me and I never would have expected that my love for books and cosmetics would result in such a kind, fun community. I am humbled. Thank you for all of your love and support. I have just finished an incredible book and I cannot wait to tell all of you about it, which I will do in my next post!

Wishing you love and happy reading..
