Must Read Monday: A Powerful Book

Here's a new meme that's quite fun and clever .. Must Read Monday by Fans of Fiction. Go HERE to join the fun and because I'm one of the winners featured for last week's acrostics!!  Woohoo!!  Thank you Jenna and Ashley for the honor.  ~Congratulations to Sherre as well!

The goal of this meme is to find those books others are excited about to add to your To Be Read list.
Instead of answering a question, you are basically creating intrigue for other hoppers. What makes your book so swoon-worthy? What do you absolutely have to mention so they'll read it?
On your post, you'll make an acrostic puzzle (think of it as an overview/book blurb type of thing).
When you leave comments on other posts, be sure to mention whether you're adding that book to your TBR pile, and what part convinced you to do so.
It's all about powers of persuasion, people:) You might have to think a little, but channel that inner-creative goddess (or god).

 
This week's category is: "A book so powerful that it changed you in some way".  For me, this would be "Standing for Something" by Gordon B. Hinckley.  This book is dear to my heart.  Truly a powerful book that showed me how important it is to stand for something again, so I try to aline my life in that matter. Go HERE for my review.

Standing for Something
Takes a look
At 10 virtues that has been
Neglected.
Drawing on from his own life
Including from our
Nation today,
Gordon B. Hinckley

Faithfully
Outlines "
Rediscovering the values and virtues that have historically made us

Strong." (book flap)
Outlining also 2 guardians of virtue,
Marriage and the family stating that
Even in difficult
Times
Here is the path to a better world.  As
Individuals, community, and as a
Nation we can
Grow to stand for something again.

  2. Phew, finally one I have actually read that won't need to be added to my tbr pile. I loved the messages in this book too. Congrats on another great acrostic!

  3. This sounds great! I haven't heard of it. We do need to take a stand in a time which is scary, especially depending on where you live. Values (in some cases) have gone out the door. Thanks for posting about this one!
