What's He Really Thinking? by Paula Rinehart

I wasn't sure what to expect from this book. There were some parts where I really gained some insight and good thoughts from it. For me it was a hard book to really dive into.
I did like the part with the questions at the end. It could open the book up for some good discussion. I think it might be a better book for a group in order to discuss the reading and talk about how each section relates to life and how to apply it.
I think it's a book you can't just read once. I feel I need to read it again to get a better understanding.

Fearless by Max Lucado

I wasn't sure what to expect when I got this book. I knew from past experience that Max Lucado's books were great and worth reading. The first thing I did when I opened the book was to search the contents. I think that is what is great about the book. I could look to what was affecting me in my own life, and go right to it. It's a book where you can find the situation you are in and read what you need at that time.
The whole book is great. The book reads to "real life" while focusing on how it relates to the biblical approach and mindset.
If you have read any of Max Lucado's books, you will love this. If it's your first...you will love it also.
