Morning everyone! First order of business — ANNOUNCEMENTS.
- I have a new theme… that’s literally all I’ve done: change the theme. If you notice any glitches, please let me know. 🙂 It’s been more than a year… maybe a year and half? It’s time for a change. 😀
- I’m done with my old style of featured images for now. They annoyed me. I’m not sure how it’ll stay, but for now, it’s better than before…?
- I think I might have completely forgotten to post last week…? Totally slipped my mind. XD
Anyway. On to the book review.
A Glitter of Gold by Liz Johnson (Goodreads)
A Glitter of Gold is a fun, well written story filled with romance, mystery, and pirates! 😀
A Glitter of Gold is a great title and ties in very well with the plot of treasure hunting. The author’s writing style is relaxed as well as descriptive and made me feel like I was actually there. I enjoyed reading the journal entries written by a passenger of a pirate ship and I thought centering this book around pirates was interesting — I learned quite a bit about them. 🙂
Anne Norris– Anne moves from California to Georgia and wants to forget what has happened in her past. After a hurricane, she finds an old artifact that leads her to the other main character, Carter Hale…
My one criticism of Anne’s character was that she was overly cautious with the other characters in some spots. It seemed a little bit overdone. Otherwise, I liked her and enjoyed seeing her learn to trust God, as well as her friends and family more. 🙂
Carter Hale– Carter has some problems in this book: a struggling museum and family issues. When Anne comes along with a golden treasure, he realizes that there may be an answer.
Carter was a very fun and likeable person. 😀 I enjoyed his aunt’s character as well! 😉
Overall, the romance was predictable, but sweet, and I loved this book! I would definitely recommend it for 13+. 4 stars.
