My daughter has been in swim lessons for a while now. She's doing pretty good but it never fails that her goggles are falling off during class. Some lessons I feel the instructor deals with the goggles more than the lesson. And that's frustrating.

Guy Erma and the Son of Empire Review
Guy Erma and the Son of Empire by Sally Ann Melia is a fast paced young adult sci fi book. The story line is intriguing with twist and turns. Guy Erma and the Son of Empire is a fairly easy read.

Talon: The Windwalker Archive: Book 1 Review
Wow! Talon: The Windwalker Archive had my attention within the first few pages. The writing is fluid and flows well. The story is engaging and evokes emotion from the reader throughout.

Throughout the story we see Talon struggle with the way others are treated. He knows it's wrong but he also knows if people try ...
