I have an immense collection of mind puzzle books - from brain-teasers to sudoku, and everything else in between. From time to time, in between actually reading books as well, I'll pick up one of these mind puzzle books and try my hand at one or two of the puzzles. I have so many puzzle books stashed away, that I have no idea how many I actually have.

Hence, I can have a particular puzzle book for years and still not finish it until several years after I receive it. So far though, these mind puzzles seem to be working excellently for me - I think...Maybe! :) I give this mind puzzle book an A+!

There are so many great stories in here from real people that will make you laugh until you cry or cry until you puke. Everyone who has ever experienced the stresses of deploying a husband will find something inside these pages to relate to.

As a new military wife myself and knowing what I've signed up for, I would say this book delivers on bringing stories that warm the heart and spirit. I find this encouraging and found some ideas on various things such as care packages and how to confront children about things regarding the military lifestyle. I rate it 4/5 because I find myself having to put it down because it's saddening, but I find myself wanting and longing to pick it up again once I recovered. I would recommend this not only for military wives, but also for friends and family and the enlisted spouse themselves. I would say this will enlighten civilians who take military families for granted and just does not understand the sacrifices and challenges military families go through.

I recommend this book for any military, military spouses, or just military family members. Heartwarming stories.
