Ohhh, I remember this one! Mandie
isn’t my favorite in this one. She’s very jealous and kind of a brat, to be
honest. It still has the mystery aspect of a true Mandie book and quite a bit
of Spiritual Content, which is nice. :)
See y’all on Monday with a new
review!
*BFCG may (Read the review to see) recommend this book by this author. It does not mean I recommend all the books by this author.
