Review: Living the Beatles Legend: The Untold Story of Mal Evans

Living the Beatles Legend: The Untold Story of Mal Evans by Kenneth Womack
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Mal’s presence is heavy in photos of The Beatles and most recently in the Get Back movie. If you have read books about The Beatles you know who Mal is and why he was important to the Liverpool lads. What you may not know until you read this book, is that life was glamorous, but not easy. This book is going to take you deep into the famous roadie’s life, deep. I 100% admit that I knew who Mal was, I could recognize him in photos, Help and knew exactly what his job for the lads was and knew about how he died, but I knew nothing about his life when he went home. Mal lived two lives, that of a guy deeply imbedded into a mayhem world and a guy married with children.

I am going to recommend this for any Beatles fan, but maybe not someone just looking for a bio to read, it is deep in the Beatles world. I very much enjoyed it.

Review: King Charles

King Charles by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

These little books are so thrilling. They aren't too in-depth and gloss over some points of the subject's life, but they are fun and brilliantly illustrated. I enjoyed this one because we get Charles III early life, and how he was groomed for the day that has now arrived for him. If you have not checked out this book, or any other book of this series, do yourself a favor and try one, or ten.

Review: I'm No Philosopher, But I Got Thoughts: Mini-Meditations for Saints, Sinners, and the Rest of Us

I'm No Philosopher, But I Got Thoughts: Mini-Meditations for Saints, Sinners, and the Rest of Us by Kristin Chenoweth
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

You are not going to like this book if you don't like a person with a bubbly personality, a person that loves God, or a book about a Broadway star. I did the audio so Kristin could read it to me, and I adored that part. She sings to you, and talks about her faith and her beginnings.

Review: Survive the Bomb: The Radioactive Citizen's Guide to Nuclear Survival

Survive the Bomb: The Radioactive Citizen's Guide to Nuclear Survival by Eric G. Swedin
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book was not quite what I expected, but I did like it. It was full of information that was given to the public about nuclear fallout. Information like what to do, what to expect, how to pack your survival kit and how to build your safe space.

Review: Satisfying Stitches: Learn Simple Embroidery Techniques and Embrace the Joys of Stitching by Hand

Satisfying Stitches: Learn Simple Embroidery Techniques and Embrace the Joys of Stitching by Hand by Hope Brasfield
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

While I am an intermediate stitcher and not a beginner, I enjoyed the photos and descriptions that showed me how to do things. I think this book is perfect for a beginner and can challenge even the advanced. An advanced stitcher can skim over the instructions on how to knot and go right to the patterns. The patterns were fun and exciting and Hope teaches you how to transfer these fun designs to your material. Hope even shows us how to do some stitches, many I did not know, and was thankful for the step-by-step photos.
