North! Or Be Eaten by Andrew Peterson
Readers thrilled to the phantasmagorical adventures in On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness,Book One of the Wingfeather Saga.
Now in Book Two, Janner, Tink, and Leeli Igiby, mom Nia, ex-pirate grandfather Podo, Peet the Sock Man, and trusty dog Nugget flee north to rebel headquarters.
Their escape brings readers to the very brink of Fingap Falls, over the Stony Mountains, and across the Ice Prairies, while villains galore try to stop the Igibys permanently. Fearsome toothy cows and horned hounds return, along with new dangers: a mad man running a fork factory, a den of rockroaches, and majestic talking sea dragons.
Andrew Peterson’s lovable characters create what FantasyBookCritic.com says made Book One “one of the best fantasy novels in a very long time,” and Book Two contains even more thrills, exploring “themes universal in nature, ranging from the classic good versus evil, to the importance of family, and burdens of responsibility.”

End of State by Neesa Hart
You are introduced to 3 brand new characters to the Left Behind universe - main of the three is Brad Benton, White House Chief of Staff.
If you've read any of the Left Behind books, you know the series deals with what is considered End Times theology including The Rapture.
End of State deals with what goes on inside the White House during that event.
I was disappointed with this book. I was looking forward to a political thriller along the lines of The Last Jihad but instead I get endless preaching and a very slow moving plot.
Seeing as there were only 3 books made in this political off-shoot, I can assume the public felt the same way.
Unless you collect everything Left Behind, do yourself a favor and forget about End of State.

The Friends We Keep by Sarah Zacharias Davis
• Do we need friends like we need air or food or water?
• What causes cattiness, competition, and co-dependency in too many friendships?
• Why do some friendships last forever and others only a season?
• How do I foster friendship?
• When is it time to let a friend go, and how do I do so?
Love & Respect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs
Love and Respect deals with the two areas a husband and wife need from one another: Wives need to feel loved and husbands need to feel respected.
Love & Respect deals with the two areas a husband and wife need from one another: Wives need to feel loved and husbands need to feel respected.
While the author seems to be very knowledgable about the content of which he's writing, I found each section of the book to be very repetitive. How many times do we need to read that a husband should love his wife unconditionally and a wife should respect her husband unconditionally?
I understand the need to go through each scenario, and the first-hand testimonies were a nice addition; and I understand this is based on their Love & Respect Conferences so the book reads as if you're attending one. But once you understand his point: Love & Respect, you're good to go.
Hopefully you'd be smart enough to figure the rest out on your own.
Maybe not...maybe that's why this book has done so well.

Red Eye
Especially Murphy. His character is downright goofy. And that's not a good thing when you're trying to be a cold-hearted killer.
