The Curse of the Beauty Book

I needed a little break from killing, murder, swearing, blood, guts, lying, cheating, drama, and etc. so I picked this book to finish throughout the other 3 that I'm reading. How refreshing was this read.

Thank you to BookBub for giving me the opportunity to receive this book for free on my Kindle. It was a feel-good read with some roots of my childhood Christianity that I lived with for so long.

The author, Sandra Byrd, didn't push scripture versus on you while you read but rather inserted them in little blurbs so you can see how scripture can be placed into real life situations. That was refreshing. I have to admit, when I first started reading this I thought that was going to be the main push, I was wrong.

The other refreshing thing about this read is that you get recipes from what the main character is cooking/baking/or putting them onto Allrecipes.com. Whether they are real recipes or not, I can't tell you as I'm not handy with kitchen stuff. I'm sure they are, though.

You get to meet this whimsical 20 something character that is trying to find her place in the real world after she graduates college. She starts out looking for a man but when her career goes south she is forced to start living with her parents again and so the man-searching is put on hold. She needs to find a job quick to get out of the parents home. As you read about her life going in and out of life situations, you find that God is always there whenever you need him. Even in the smallest of troubles of daily life.

I recommend this story to the ones that just need a break from dark deep secret stories. It's a fast read and you won't regret it!
