By Michele Morin
Michele Morin delivers another great review of an important book for Christian women by Lisa-Jo Baker. Never Unfriended.

Remember to check out other hosts’ blogs to see which posts from last week were their favorites. Want to be the next to be featured! Just link up a post and if you are read the most, we will feature you. Also please make sure you link back to us so others will know about our link up and join in.

Now, it is time to link up to the Literacy Musing Mondays hop!

Linkup Rules:
- Include a link back or the blog hop button linked to this hop on your posts.
- Link up the urls to your posts not to your blog.
- Please remember this is a family-friendly linkup. Although we believe in the right for adults to read whatever they want to read, we prefer to read wholesome posts that feature literature that edify and uplift families. We reserve the right to delete any posts that are not family friendly. We love all kinds of literature and genres including family-friendly inspirational romances, fantasy, or science fiction. We do not welcome any posts that feature excessive violence, sexual content, or any cursing. This rule also applies to book review posts that feature books that are not family-friendly. These posts will be deleted without notice to the blogger or explanation. While we believe in the right for all adults to read whatever they want, we feel our linkup is for family-friendly posts only. Thank you for understanding.
- We also want to be loving community by supporting one another. Please make a point to do this this week! Visit the two posts before yours and at least one other blogger’s post of your choice! I want to see lots of clicks on everyone’s posts. Remember it is also nice to follow them on their social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook.
- Follow your hosts and co-hosts on their social media.
- Tweet about the link up too.

Summer’s going great so far, except we’ve been so busy that I feel incredibly behind already! Hope yours is less stressful!

I know how you feel. My days have been slow and good, but then time passes to quick sometimes. I hope all clears up for you and you have a less stressful summer.

It makes me so happy to know that lots of eyes were on my review of Lisa-Jo’s book! Her words are so important for us to understand as women, and she shares her own experiences with such candor — all the while pointing to hope!
Blessings to you, Mary! So looking forward to SUMMER!
