I'm so excited to be a part of this scavenger hunt blog hop in celebration of the launch of Mesu Andrews' second book in her Treasures of the Nile series, Miriam!
I realize most of you are probably already "on the hunt", but if you just happened on this page first, you'll want to hop on over to the start of the hunt at Mesu’s blog and then you'll finish your journey at Mommynificent.com. At the bottom of this post, you can find the full list of stops for the entire hunt. Between March 15th and 20th, click on the next link, head over to the page, meet a new book-lover, and read their thoughts about Miriam. Somewhere in each post there will be a single word that is in BOLD AND ALL CAPITALS. Write it down. (The words “Home” and “Good Luck” are not secret words for anyone.)
Then, go to the next stop. That post will also have a word that’s bolded and capitalized. You will need to visit all 14 blogs as each one will have a word that you need. Once you reach the end and have found all the words, you will have found an inspirational quote from the book Miriam. There are 14 words in this quote. Enter the quote into the Rafflecopter on the last stop and you will be entered to win a Kindle Fire from Mesu Andrews! (Open to U.S. residents only)
If you have any questions, get lost, or experience any technical difficulties, you may email Tina at tina{at}mommynificent{dot}com for help.
Now, let's talk about this fantastic book!
I received this book from Waterbook Press, a division of Penguin Random House, in exchange for an honest review

My Thoughts about Miriam by Mesu Andrews
I am so glad that I got the chance to read this second book in the Treasures of the Nile Series. It was every bit as good as the first one. The author grabs you on the first page and does not let go until the very last page. I found myself ignoring everything else just so I could keep reading. Mesu puts enough details in this book to make you feel that you are really back in Egypt. I can not imagine living in that time period and all they had to endure. I am sure Miriam was looking for ANSWERS when El Shaddai went quite and she could no longer hear him. To her that must have been devasting. To follow her on her journey and learn more about her was very nice. I enjoyed learning moera about Miriam's story, she was a very strong and caring woman. All in all a very interesting as well as entertaing book and I look forward to seeing what Mesu has to offer us next.About The Author
