Why?

There is a new web site out there that I want to share with everyone.  It is ldswhy.com.  This site will tie in with a new book by John Hilton that is coming in April.  The idea behind the book and the web site is to help youth understand why it is important to keep the standards of the church.  Topics such as the word of wisdom, dating, and the media are covered.  You can download a sample chapter of the book from the web site, or you can get one at the Deseret Book in Bellevue.  I think that both this book and web site will be a great resourse for youth, parents and leaders!


Book Review

January 21, 2009

bright_blue_product2Dawn, a Supervising Bookseller, at our store gave me this review for one of the new book we just got in, Bright Blue Miracle by Becca Wilhite.

“I could not put this book down!  Intelligently written about smart, moral teenagers in their senior year all college bound.  Leigh Mason’s widowed mother remarries and she suddenly has a step-sister her same age sharing a room with her.  On top of this Leigh’s longtime best friend, Jeremy, falls for her stepsister!  This inspiring, very fun, story shows how they all carefully and lovingly deal with each others feelings.  This book has it all- don’t miss it.”

Welcome to the blog for the Deseret Book store in Bellevue Washington. My goal with this blog is to be able to better connect with our customers, and help them stay informed with what is going on at Deseret Book. I plan to post here information about events, author signings, sales, promotions, and new products. I also plan to include book reviews from me and my staff.
