Confuzzled Books

If you are wondering what kinds of books I review and events I host, this little section is the place to look. Books I love to read: Children's, Young Adult, Paranormal and Fantasy books. Books I like to read: General Fiction, Romances, Religious Fiction, Mysteries and Biographies. So those are the genres of books I will generally review. If you send me a book outside of those areas, I'll consider it, but it may not fit my tastes. Reviews will take about 2 months to post; I try to post them around the time the book is released. On giveaways: Sending me a signed book to give away on the site is a great way to get your book noticed. I do a "mystery book" giveaway about every 2 weeks, where I read the book and twitter about it without revealing its title, then reveal what I've been reading and give it away. The whole event takes a couple weeks, and I feature the giveaway book on my blog for most of that time.

The Inconvenient Adventures Of Uncle Chestnut

The Inconvenient Adventures of Uncle Chestnut - Paul Nowak As it says on the book, this is based on the life and works of G.K. Chesterton. G.K. Chesterton inspired many of today’s loved authors. His view on life made people wonder if they were truly living life to the fullest, and this book is written as a loosely truthful story about his nephew learning from uncle Chestnut how to think for himself.

I wasn’t sure about this book when I got it, but in all honesty, I really enjoyed it and learned some interesting lessons. I was surprised that the author was not the actual nephew; I was so involved with the stories that I truly believed the tales. I actually wanted more wisdom from Uncle Chestnut. Luckily, there is more to find on the actual G.K. Chesterton, and I will be checking him out.
