Rose Reads: Current Book List

I thought it would be fun to share what I am currently reading and to get recommendations from readers on what to read next. I tend to read a few different books from different genres at the same time (as you can see below). I have always been that way unless I am sitting on a relaxed Sunday simply to devour 1 book.

Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear by Elizabeth Gilbert

I am really enjoying this book. I have had many AHA! moments while reading it and I have been taking it in just a few pages at a time.

The Best Yes by Lysa TerKeurst

This book came at the right time. Not that I was questioning my faith but I needed a little faith and religion to pull me back in. Great read so far, however, the religious tone is a bit much for me at times.

The Magic of Thinking Big by David J. Schwartz

I am devouring this book chapter by chapter every few days. Tons of highlighting going on – do you highlight your books? So much good information that resonates with me. David talks about thinking big – positive thinking (whispers: the law of attraction) without it being woo woo or awkward. This is a great read for anyone really that wants to change some aspect of their life.

Girl, Wash Your Face by Rachel Hollis (Audible)

Take Control of Your Life by Mel Robbins (Audible)

I love Mel Robbins! I have been listening to her a lot on youtube and she is such a straight shooter and so inspiring and motivational. She is a that good friend that knows just what to say and isn’t afraid to say it. I prefer listening to her book since it is her reading it. It is like one of her motivational speeches. She starts off by talking about how fear silences us. Whew. This is gonna be GOOD.

Book: Satellite, The Satellite Trilogy Part I
Author: Lee Davidson

Satellite Triology Lee DavidsonThe beginning of this story was a slow read, however, once I got into it I really enjoyed it. The more that I read, the deeper that it pulled me in. It speaks from the view of a man in the afterlife and uncovers the love and longing that he has for the woman that he left behind. He wants so much to live on in human form and is not concerned about the consequences he may face if he attempts to connect with her. As a Satellite or Guardian Angel, he is given responsibilities and he has little to no concern towards the consequences he may face if he ignores them. There is a major plot twist that I didn’t really see coming and it was a nice surprise.

As far as characters go, I really liked them – even the stubborn main character, Grant, who is a mans-man. He is not very in touch with his feelings and I think I would have liked him a lot more if he was. I feel like his feelings were being buried and if they had been revealed I would have probably been in tears after reading this book.

I enjoyed the plot, however, I do think that it was missing information about actually being a Satellite. I am not sure if the other books cover this but I think that there was some potential for a great story (within the story) about the paranormal world that Grant is thrust into. More background information about how they came to be and their history would have been really exciting to read about.

The ending really left me wanting more and I am very interested in reading the next book in the trilogy. I would love to see what happens next to Grant and the other characters. Also, I am hoping that the next book digs a bit deeper into the history of the Satellites. After reading Satellite, I really wanted to watch Ghost because it has that same feeling you get when the two lovers in the film want to be connected again and will do just about anything to do so. This book is a perfect read for a Friday night when you want to curl up and enjoy some hot tea.
