Reviews by Anne LeGare
Collapse of Distinction
On 1/7 Anne LeGare wrote: I've been hesitant to review this book because others have done so in and eloquent fashion, and in great detail. I wish this book was around when I was struggling through my MBA. It is easy to read and grasp, without too much "business-ese." I bought it for my husband, a small business CEO, and he picked ...

The Sweet By and By
On 1/7 Anne LeGare wrote: Sara Evans and Rachel Hauck have collaborated to create a sweet work of fiction that feels like real life. Having dealt with some of these issues myself, I could relate to the emotions and situations Jade, Beryl, and Willow dealt with. My take away — moms make mistakes, daughters make mistakes. Moms ...

Fearless
On 9/8 Anne LeGare wrote: I said "Amen" with Max Lucado, and closed his newest book, "Fearless." The hairs on my arms and legs were standing on end, and I had tears in my eyes.

This Is Your Brain On Joy
On 4/27 Anne LeGare wrote: This book was a joy to read! It was like reading an "Idiots Guide to the Brain."

The American Patriot's Almanac
On 1/15 Anne LeGare wrote: As I read this book, all I could think was "what a terrific idea!" William J. Bennett and John T.E. Cribb have produced a marvelous work. Their introductory words capture the book’s charm, and this quote said it all for me: “Every American has a claim on the contents of this book. Many of us don’t ... Start Reading Now!
The Unseen
On 12/16 Anne LeGare wrote: It’s hard to categorize this book into a certain genre. It could be called a techno-thriller; but then again it could be called spy fiction. When I got further into the book I realized it had some cold war themes mixed in, so it might appeal to conspiracy seekers. One thing is for sure: it wasn’t ... Unseen Christianity
Through the Storm
On 12/2 Anne LeGare wrote: Her biggest reason for writing the book was tied to the loss of her sister Sandra, who died recently. Specifically, Lynne said: “I took a good look at myself and realized that if God were to take me, I wanted my children to know what my thoughts were about the most important elements of this life.” ...
