Elon Musk Book Review

April 15, 2025 by Linda @ Linda's Lunacy Leave a Comment

I, of course, have heard of Elon Musk before. But my knowledge was limited. I did hear about his cars many times from the guys in my family, though. lol So I was very interested in reading his biography. Check out my Elon Musk Book Review below.

Famed biographer Walter Isaacson — who’s studied and written about Steve Jobs, Albert Einstein, Ben Franklin, and Leonardo da Vinci – spent 2 years shadowing Elon Musk and it clearly shows in this fascinating book. You really get to know Musk as an inventor and as a person, and you feel like a fly on the wall watching things like Tesla development and SpaceX launches. You also learn about Musk’s tough childhood in South Africa and how that shaped him.
 

Elon Musk Book Review

I have not read any other biographies by Walter Isaacson. But I like his writing style in Elon Musk. He followed Elon around for 2 years. Everywhere. So you really get a glimpse of what is life is/was like.

This is a high quality book. Unlike the paper cover on other hardcover books, this one is made of a thicker, glossier paper, so it’s sturdier. The front and rear flyleaves have full coverage photos.

I love that each chapter not only has a name, but is labeled with the place and the years that it covers. It makes it super easy to follow the story line. There are a lot of pictures included. Not only of Elon, but of his family, friends, and colleagues.

Biographies are my favorite genre of books. I found Elon Musk to be an in depth biography. Not just skimming the highlights of his life. I have enjoyed reading this book.

There is a comprehensive notes section, as well as an index included. Something that I appreciate in a biography.

No matter if you have only recently heard of Elon Musk, or have been following his career for years, you will love this book. I found it fascinating!

Buy the book HERE Here is an exclusive 40% discount off the hardcover by using code MUSK40 until April 15.

The Jesus Storybook Bible & My Little Library of God’s Great Love Book Review

April 1, 2025 by Linda @ Linda's Lunacy Leave a Comment

I recently received The Jesus Storybook Bible & My Little Library of God’s Great Love books. They are awesome little books! Check out my book review below.

The Jesus Storybook Bible Book Review

About the Book

Trusted and treasured for over a decade, The Jesus Storybook Bible has been introducing children to God’s wonderful story, and the Savior at the center of that story. With over 6 million copies sold, The Jesus Storybook Bible is the quintessential book for parents, grandparents, pastors, and anyone else who wants to share God’s Never Stopping, Never Giving Up, Unbreaking, Always and Forever Love with children. While other kids’ Bibles contain stories from the Old and New Testaments, The Jesus Storybook Bible tells the Story beneath all the stories in the Bible, pointing to Jesus as our Savior. From the Old Testament through the New Testament, as the Story unfolds, children will clearly see that Jesus is at the center of God’s great story of salvation—and at the center of their story too.

The Jesus Storybook Bible is a perfect book to start reading Bible stories to little ones. There is a presentation page making this a perfect gift.

The Jesus Storybook Bible is 350 pages long, with 44 stories from both the Old Testament, and the New Testament. The stories are are all 6 or more pages long. However, most pages have pictures.

The colors and illustrations will keep your child’s attention while they are listening to the stories. This is a solid hardcover book that is a great size. Perfect for holding the book and a child at the same time.

My Little Library of God’s Great Love Book Review

About the Books

This is a 4 in 1 box set! These simply written board books remind little ones of God’s enduring love, his nearness, and his protection. From the author of the bestselling The Jesus Storybook Bible, Sally Lloyd-Jones, and award-winning illustrator Jago, bring you this 4-book boxed set of board books, which encourages young and old alike to remember that we are all loved in very special ways by God.

I love this little set of four books. The four titles are:

Loved: The Lord’s Prayer, Found: Psalm 23, Near: Psalm 139, Known: Psalm 139.

Each book has 11 board pages, with the pages having only a sentence or two on them. The drawings are pretty, and so sweet. With calming, and soothing colors. This set of four books in one case are the perfect first books for little ones.

The Jesus Storybook Bible & My Little Library of God’s Great Love are awesome little books. I’m excited to give these to my grandchildren. I know they are going to love them. And so are their parents!

They make excellent gifts. And with Easter coming, they are all the perfect size to fit in their baskets!

When Skies Aren’t Blue Book Review

March 31, 2025 by Linda @ Linda's Lunacy Leave a Comment

I recently read the book When Skies Aren’t Blue. The tag line of is A Physician’s Personal Journey. Dr. Andy Laurie, a medical professional and a pastor, shares his personal story. And the spiritual help he found that got him through being seriously ill for years.

About the Book

Andy Laurie, MD, had a successful medical practice, and was starting a second career as a pastor. He had a beautiful, loving wife and four small children. His life was seemingly perfect.

Then he was struck with a devastating illness. It took him a long time, and multiple doctors to get a diagnosis. Only to find out there was no cure. He has now been battling this illness for almost two decades. In When Skies Aren’t Blue, Dr. Laurie has written prescriptions for you to find hope, strength, contentment, and joy.

About the Author

Dr. Andy Laurie is a board-certified radiologist who received his medical degree from UC San Diego. He did his post graduate residency at the University of Arizona. He practiced emergency radiology for nearly thirty years before illness caused him to recently retire. In addition, he has been a pastor at The Bridge Christian Church in Tucson, Arizona, for nearly twenty years. For much of this time, he has courageously battled a devastating disease of the autonomic nervous system. Dr. Laurie and his wife, Cyndi, were married in 1991 after he graduated from medical school. They have four grown children and make their home in Tucson with their beloved dogs.

When Skies Aren’t Blue Book Review

In When Skies Aren’t Blue the author is very transparent and authentic. He not only shares about his illness, but his thoughts, feelings, and spiritual needs. The good, and the bad. Then shares Bible verses and spiritual insight into what it’s like living with a serious and chronic illness, and what we can do to find the strength to go on, with hope and joy.

The book is divided into 10 chapters that the author calls Powerful Steps. The chapters average 7 pages each, so they are not long. That makes it easy to read for one that is not feeling well, and for those with busy schedules.

There are several graphics throughout the book to emphasize what the author is discussing.

Each chapter, or Powerful Step, ends with a prayer for you to pray. As well as a Prescription For When Skies Aren’t Blue. These prescriptions contain specific steps that you can take today that will help you find hope and strength when your skies definitely aren’t blue. They will help you find joy and contentment when the struggles of life have darkened your blue skies.

This may make it sound like a simple book. But it definitely is not. The author uses his personal experience to show us what it’s like to be in the trenches. And what it is like to be in the trenches for an extended period of time yet have hope and a growing relationship with God. One that will help us to not only get through the day, but to do so victoriously.

I highly recommend When Skies Aren’t Blue for anyone, with any struggle they are battling.
