The 36-Hour Day: A Family Guide to Caring for People Who Have Alzheimer Disease, Related Dementias, and Memory Loss
Review Date: 7/23/2021


If you are caring for anyone with dementia this is a must! The more knowledge you have, the better. This book was recommended by a friend and it is worth the read. I am keeping mine for reference.

I will be keeping this book as a reference. I have not quite completed my first read-through but have gained a lot of helpful information on dementia. If you are a caregiver or have a family member with dementia I would recommend reading this book. It gives you insight into many aspects of dementia. I'm so glad a friend recommended it to me!

Interesting and well worth the read. It's also one of those books where you can read a chapter (they are short), put it down and read another chapter the next day ... it gives you a chance to absorb what you've read.

Great book ... it's full of good information for cat owners. I gained a lot of knowledge on caring for cats and I've been a cat owner for over 50 years. I would recommend this book to another cat owner or anyone considering adopting a cat.

God Allows U Turns American Moments: True Stories of Hope and Healing from Times of National Crisis (God Allows U-Turns)
Review Date: 2/13/2022


I used this as a devotional ... after each short story I prayed for our service members or those pertaining to the write up. Though the stories were short each was a real eye opener. If you are interested in this country ... the U.S.A. ... I suggest you read this.

Very interesting but I did find that it took more than the first one hundred pages to really get into the story. I found this true on two other of John P. Marquand books that I have read. Stick with it thought because the story is worth it.

I haven't quite finished reading it but it is powerful and I am going to read it a second time. I have even recommended it to two friends. It is packed full of helpful information ... wish I had read it years ago. Who knew men and women were so different emotionally?
