It was a lot of fun listening to all the different traditions and memories that the different narrators have that  helps them to get into the Christmas spirit and make this holiday so special for them.

The Christmas Hirelings

The Christmas Hirelings By; Mary Elizabeth Braddon

This was a book that I got last Christmas and I just had no real interest in reading it last year. Well this year after I had finished the 3rd DragonWatch I wanted a Christmas type book and remembered I had this book. I am so sad I did not read this last year. It is such a good book! Its a book set in old England and is about a widower father who allows his friend to "hire" and bring in 3 children to his country mansion for Christmas. In hopes of bringing the joy and sounds of Christmas back into the long ago silenced mansion. What conspires next is both heart warming, devastating, and nothing less than a Christmas miracle.

DragonWatch Book 3

DragonWatch Master of the Phantom Isle By: Brandon Mull

First off I would like to say I had NO idea that this was released a couple months ago. When I started this series I thought it was a complete series. NOPE! Now I have to wait 1 whole year for the new book to come out. AHHHH!
Well if you couldn't tell by my little rant I really loved this book and I am thoroughly enjoying this whole series, but I am sad that I have to wait a full year to find out what happens next. I'm sure it will be well worth the wait.

The adventures of Kendra and Seth continue as the dragon war wages on. Now parted, Kendra has an aching desire to find the unicorn Bracken and her kidnapped brother Seth. Meanwhile Seth has been taken to the Under Realm and with his identity and memories erased he has no clue if he is in the midst of friend or foe.

Dragon Watch Book 2

Dragon Watch: Wrath of the Dragon King BY: Brandon Mull

As the situation with the dragons become more and more tense Kendra and Seth are put to the ultimate test as caretakers. With an unexpected invitation to a yearly feast with the leaders of all the various magical tribes at Wymroost. Seth and Kendra's worst fears are realized when the dragon king declares open war. With new allies and new enemy's as well as the appearance of the elusive dark unicorn things go from bad to worse and once again Seth and Kendra are fighting to stay alive whilst trying to protect the world from the devastation that free'd dragons cold unleash.

I REALLY enjoy Brandon Mull's books, they have never disappointed and this series continues to be a page turner for me. Especially when I wasn't keeping close tabs on how close I was getting to the end of the book. Then suddenly it was over and I was fumbling for book 3 to keep the story going. This has been such a fun series so far and I am excited to see how it concludes.

Dragonwatch Book 1

Dragon Watch By: Brandon Mull

After reading mostly historical non fiction, I found I wanted something lighter. I thought about going back to something I had already read, but decided I needed something new. Brandon Mull's books have never disappointed and I noticed this series. I loved the fablehaven series so thought it would be fun to continue the main characters Seth and Kendra into their next adventure. They faced some pretty fierce adventures while in fablehaven. but their adventures at the dragon sanctuary of wymroost are filled with more danger and higher stakes than they have ever experienced before.

Hell's Angels the True Story of the 303rd Bomb Group in World War ll

Hell's Angels: The True Story of the 303rd Bomb Group in World War ll By: Jay Stout

I love learning about history ESPECIALLY World War ll. I don't know why it has always fascinated me. This book did not disappoint. I really enjoyed learning about the men who made up the various bomb groups, particularly the 303rd. I learned so much about the war through the eyes of these soldiers. It was fascinating read and very educational. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys history and learning more about the second world war.

The Origins of World War ll

The Origins of World War ll By: Keith Eubank

I found this book at my  universities library and used it for a paper. I really enjoyed this book and found it very fascinating. I have focused so much of my studies of world war 2 on the actual war in progress. I really enjoyed learning about the origins from the end of world war 1 to the start of the second world war. I highly recommend this book to any history buff.
