As some of you may know, I participated in going through a 100 day program with Honoree Corpron Corder that she wrote a book about. This is one of the best self help books out there, and maybe the only one out there specifically for single moms. Now Honoree is giving away a signed copy of her book! All you have to do to enter is go to her website The Successful Single Mom, and leave a comment about a challenge that you faced and came through. Honoree is a great friend and an excellent coach. Whether your a single mom or not, this book will help you get you back on track and find the courage to get through anything!
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!
