Naughty boy next door strikes again!
I liked this one, it was very well written. Even though you start the book thinking, oh yeah another typical romance it was surprising at the end. It was more then just the obvious love interest. There were multiple layers to the story which I really enjoyed.
The main character is from a dysfunctional family and she is looking to control her life and build a "perfect" one. She then runs into a huge messy obstacle of the boy next door and his band of brothers. Her soon to be husband leaves her hours before they say I do for her assistant/maid of honor which also leads to her losing her job. Her only hope to get her job back is to whip the bad boys into shape in order to save her new love interest his promising soccer career.

3 Sleuths, 2 Dogs, 1 Murder - Maggie Pill
Amazon Top 100 Free
This was a cute book, you could tell the author is inexperienced in writing but overall it was a good idea and carried out well. IT was a new take on investigators, not a hunky tall dark and handsome or a blundering young women down on her luck looking for a quick few bucks to get back on her feet. This was three older women, sisters, that investigate in their little town. They get a little bit over their heads with the new case they are working on but, as in all good romantic mysteries, love prevails in the end and they are able to solve the case.

American Wasteland: How America Throws Away Nearly Half of Its Food - Jonathan Bloom
This book was given to me by a friend and I wish I had hundreds of copies that I could pass around. I LOVED this book. It fits into my whole new thought process and life journey.
Recently I joined the It Works! team as an independent distributor and am in love with the community. Feel free to visit my site or reach out to me with any questions <3 kirahindman.myitworks.com or email me at kira.andreyeva@gmail.com
This book though, oh my! I know that food waste was a part of my household growing up and I never thought too much about it other then when I hated the meal and my adoptive parents would say "there are starving kids in Africa" and I would think sullenly "fine ill ship it to them."
Reading this book was a huge eye opener to the extent of waste throughout the whole system before the food even reaches my trash can. I would think every now and then as I saw a bruised apple get passed up over and over again what happened to it at the end of the night but quickly was always distracted by the smell of the bakery or the meat counter that was close by. In my youth I even worked in a grocery store and saw how poorly food was handled. That stint though was short lived and I never saw the full impact of what happened to food in the grocery store. This book though clearly outlines the demise of perfectly edible food. What shocked me more then the grocery store "culling" the food was that it went into the trash cans and ruined (with bleach) or locked up so people could not eat it for free, even if it was still edible. Or that these stores just toss it in the first place instead of donating to the food banks that are always in need of meat, milk and produce especially.
As I start my journey to "be the change I wish to see" (Gandhi) this book was able to open my eyes to all the problems food is faced with and maybe ways I can share with others that are looking to get healthy and change the world, even if it is their little world.
