Retirement Homes Are Murder
by Mike Befeler ($3.99). After reading this one, you may have to make new arrangements for you last stop in retirement. My mother grabbed it after starting the sample, as she had to know how it turned out. That's a pretty good recommendation, since her TBR stack is nearly as high as mine, which is why she almost didn't even read the sample I sent to her Kindle (a power I try not to abuse).Remembering nothing from the day before, crotchety octogenarian Paul Jacobson must become an amateur sleuth to clear himself as a murder suspect when he finds a dead body in the trash chute of a retirement home. As Paul’s snooping and short-term memory loss get him in trouble with the local police, his new friends and granddaughter Jennifer help him solve an expanding list of crimes. Paul finds romance as he struggles to escape a murderer intent on a repeat performance.

The Chocolate Gravy Queen
by Memphis Layne ($3.19) is currently #19 in the Children's Performing Arts fiction category. The first three chapters are available to read online at the author's MySpace page.My name is Memphis Autumn Layne and I live in Lickskillet, Alabama, on the corner of Moontown Road and Butter and Egg Lane. No joke. But don’t get the wrong idea; I’m not a backwoods hillbilly, even though I do come from a long line of rednecks and hicks. There is a big difference between a hillbilly and a redneck, you know.
Oh, and just to set the record straight right from the start; contrary to popular belief (i.e., the movie Sweet Home Alabama ) we don't eat bologna cake here - that's sick! I'd never even heard of it before that movie! We prefer cheeseburger pie or a fried Twinkie and, most importantly, chocolate gravy! Although that does remind me of the story my Momma told me about how my Uncle Jeremiah, when he was little, snuck some bologna into church, stood on the front pew and......OK, I'm chasing a rabbit now, as my grandpa likes to say. Back to the subject, which is me.
One thing you need to know – I am going to be a big country music star one day. I know this because my great-grandma Patty Lou said so when I was just a little girl and all the family knows that her visions are surprisingly accurate. Also because I have become an overnight news sensation. You are probably wondering how a young redneck nobody could have all the news channels begging for an interview and that is what I will let you in on a little later....
The Difference Between Life and Death: Outliving the Flu Pandemic of 2009
by Dennis Miner ($4.00) is more of a novella or long short story than a full novel, chronicling the steps taken by a small group that survives a flu pandemic thru a combination of luck and preparation (and nearly does not, when a later group joins up with them). It's a pretty quick read and nothing on the scope of S.M. Stirling's
Dies the Fire or Change series (which has The Sword of the Lady
coming out in September), but it is grounded in the real world.This is a story of hope and survival. Self-reliance and traditional family values help us to stick together and outlive the flu pandemic crisis. In the process of overcoming this struggle, our family becomes stronger, as does American society. Throughout this life changing experience, there are elements of fear, death of a loved one, courage, family conflict, self preservation, life’s lessons, going back to the simple basics, and so much more.

Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire
by Jim Cymbala ($3.99; Paperback
$11.69) has consistently high reviews and is currently marked down from the list price of $10.99.The Times Are Urgent God Is on the Move Now Is the Moment to ... ask God to ignite his fire in your soul! Pastor Jim Cymbala believes that Jesus wants to renew his people--to call us back from spiritual dead ends, apathy, and lukewarm religion. Cymbala knows the difference firsthand. Thirty-five years ago his own church, the Brooklyn Tabernacle, was a struggling congregation of twenty. Then they began to pray ... God began to move ... street-hardened lives by the hundreds were changed by the love of Christ ... and today they are more than ten thousand strong.
The story of what happened to this broken-down church in one of America's toughest neighborhoods points the way to new spiritual vitality in the church and in your own life. Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire shows what the Holy Spirit can do when believers get serious about prayer and the gospel. As this compelling book reveals, God moves in life-changing ways when we set aside our own agendas, take him at his word, and listen for his voice.
Creationist Diet
by Gary F. Zeolla ($2.36) isn't a tradtional diet book, but has a rather interesting premise, comparing foods from the bible to those that current research show increase or decrease many modern diseases. Of course, all of these are non-processed whole foods, as are all the other foods eaten by other cultures in the same era, some of which are discussed (provided, of course, they are mentioned in the Bible).What did God give to human beings for food? What does the Bible teach about diet and nutrition? How do the Biblical teachings on foods compare to scientific research on nutrition and degenerative disease like heart disease, cancer, and stroke? Starting with God's decrees about foods at Creation, the Fall, and after the Flood, and gleaning nutrition information from the rest of the Bible, this book proposes four different possible Creationist Diets, presenting the pros and cons of each.
