Escape to Zion by Jean Holbrook Mathews

This book is a historical fiction with a mix of suspense. This is Jean's second book, and this book is about an endenture servant whose master wouldn't let her go when her contract was up and was force to leave during the night. After escaping her former master she runs into guy who she ends up marrying. When she thought she was safe for good she learned differently when strangers show up to take her back to her master. This book is one I highly recommend. Not only do you get a great story, you also learn about some of the historical facts about our country.

Jean Holbrook Mathews also wrote The Light Above.

Book Reviews

For those who don't know, I'm an avid reader. So I decided to start writing book reviews on my blog. The books I will review would be available at Seagull Book or Deseret Book, but since I work at Seagull Book I hope you come by to see me if you decided to get one of the books I review.

My bad touch

I feel like I have the "bad touch" when it comes to electricity. Last month I was watching a movie when the TV blew, which resoulted in us getting a new HDTV. Earlier this evening I was reading a book when the room was getting darker as the sun was going down so I went to turn on the lights to see and resoulted in the light popping followed by smoke. I'm starting to be afraid to turn on light switches now.

My Achin' Feet

Today I was in the mood to wear my brown outfit to work, and the only brown shoes I have are boots. Normally I won't wear my boots on a day that I have an eight hour sift, but today I thought I'd give it a try to see how it works. I now know not to ever wear my boots on an eight hour work shift. My feet are so sore that I can't walk around the house, and when I am walking I'm walking very slowly and crinching at each step. This also tells me that I really need to go find my some brown shoes that aren't boots.
