Aloha Cove Series

This series is a wonderfu display of Christian values and how God helps us through problems in life. It is also very realistic on the description. Having lived there for two years, I find it wonderful to read the books and to be reminded of places there. Surfway, snack bar, Emon beach, wonderful times. Anyways, the description and the morals of this book are great. Highly recommendable!

Makes you think!

I thought this book was great, and my mom did also! I told her to read it after I was done, and after she did she said she was glad she did. She said it's good for discussions about God, His plan for our lives, and how we are supposed to live for Him. I liked Cass the best since she's the most like me, but the other characters are great too. What I liked best was that they're just regular kids who are trying to be Christians. They're not perfect and they certainly wouldn't say they're perfect, but they try. My mom likes the mom in the book and says she has good sense!

A Great Book For Any Teenage Girl...

I am 15 and an avid reader. I bought the first two Aloha Cove books at a homeschool fair because they looked like they had good plots. I was right they did! I read the books very quickly because I liked them so much! There are very good morals and lessons to be learned from them but they are far from "preachy!" I would reccomend these books for any teenage girl, probably ages 12-16. The characters are well devoloped and aren't dull but they do tend to act a little bit young for their age

Review of Nothing Atoll

Cassandra Devane's mother had been going out with a former highschool friend, Steve Spencer. Cass' dad had died when she was little and Steve's wife had walked out on him and his daughter Tabitha. Cass and Tabitha did exactly hit it off on good terms and when their parents decided to get married it just made their relationship worse. When Cass found out she had to move to Kwajalien, in the Marshall Islands, she flipped out because she didn't want to leave her friends and family. Steve was a news reporter for the radio company there on the island and had moved there a couple of years eariler. After getting to Kwajalein Tabitha immediately left with her friend Kira. Cass mopped around the house mad at God and her mother and Steve for making her move. Finally after a couple of weeks there, Cass accidentally runs into Tabitha's group of friends. Logan, also a newcomer to Kwajalein, immediately became friends with her. When Cass found out that there wasn't a youth group on the island, her favorite thing back home, she was real upset again. Well, her mom talked to the pastor and got one started. Finally after Tabitha and Cass were both tired of fighting and the power went out they finally spilled why they disliked each other so much. I will let you hang there. I thought this was a really good book because my sister and I fight a lot and it gave me a few tips on how to deal with that. This book can be really funny or it can be serious, but thoughout the book it is a real life situation and has tips about dealing with that kind of stuff.
