How "In Sheep's Clothing," Written By L.D. Beyer, Blew Me Away

A few months ago, I heard from one of my friends that her dad had written a book. Obviously, I was intrigued and I decided to pick up a copy and see how it was. Normally, when things like this come from people who you know, you can expect them to be fine, but nothing special. This was not like that. "In Sheep's Clothing," written by L.D. Beyer, completely blew me away.

In the book, a Secret Service agent, Matthew Ritcher, and the United States president are thrown into a whirlwind game of survival in the unknown. When the two survive the explosives on Air Force One, largely due to Ritcher's quick reflexes, they quickly realize that their lives are still at stake and they uncover a plan to threaten the presidency. Throughout the book, Ritcher and David Kendall, the president, continuously surprise the reader with their quick thinking, incredible ideas, and the depth of their characters.

Everything about "In Sheep's Clothing" kept me interested and at the edge of my seat until the last page. The main character, Matthew Ritcher, is well thought out and he had a captivating point of view. From his love for his job to his dedication to the president, Ritcher is a driven and exciting character. David Kendall, the president, juxtaposes his commitment to his country and his new position against his love of and fear for his family who are alone in the White House. The two use their joint experiences and knowledge to get each other out of a dangerous situation.

Overall, "In Sheep's Clothing" is a fast-paced, engrossing political thriller that I would recommend to anyone. Just wait until I talk about the sequel.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
