"Hill Women" by Cassie Chambers

Open your eyes and learn about the wonders of life in the Appalacian Mountains. See and hear the people who make it their home. Be spellbound as the story moves you. Feel the hardships but, most importantly, feel the triumphs and joy of family and neighbors.

As a nation, small towns in Kentucky are mostly forgotten. We live our lives and don't appreciate what we have until we hear about others. Although we may be doing better in our jobs, we are certainly lost in the neighborly way. Gone are the days when we play with our neighbors. Gone are the days where we're safe in our homes. In the mountains this is the opposite. It's pure life.

Beautifully written. True story.

I highly recommend this book.

Cassie, thank you for sharing your story with the world.

"Rachel Maddow: A Biography"

by Lisa Rogak

This book sheds light on Rachel Maddow. She's brilliant, matter of fact and is enjoys confrontation. I have always enjoyed watching her show because she is so good at what she does. She opens our minds to yet another viewpoint. Learn about her and how she became who she is today. Learn about her personal life and how truly perfect it is for her. What a lucky person she is.

This is one of my favorite books. It was such fun to read and so well written. I enjoyed every word. It made me smile, laugh, think and wonder. Learning more about Rachel was a gift. She's an incredible woman.

Lisa, thank you so much for writing this book. Rachel, you are a unique soul. A kind soul.

I HIGHLY recommend this book.
