I was given a unique opportunity to be a part of this “Grab Bag Book Tour” from Blogging for Books, presented by Multnomah Books, a division of Random House publishing.  Those who participated in this book tour would get 2 randomly selected books to review.  I was pleasantly surprised at how good the two books that I received were.  What surprised me most was that I didn’t realize I was receiving two Christian titles!  I’m not a Christian, so I wasn’t sure I would appreciate these books as much as I did.  I enjoyed them greatly though!
