Goodbye 2022! Hello 2023! I don’t do resolutions. They have a tendency to be vague and not stick for more than a month, if they get that far. I do goals instead, and there are several things I’m excited for in 2023! First, a look back. Writing - In 2022, I attended my first writer’s… Continue reading Excited for 2023!
My first read from Sharon Hinck will not be my last. This fantastical reimagining of the Biblical story of Joseph is storytelling at its best. Dream of Kings pulls you into a vivid world of betrayal, political intrigue, and struggles of faith with characters that spring up from the page. As the dream teller, Jolan,… Continue reading Dream of Kings by Sharon Hinck
Sandra has done it again. I fell in love with Sandra Byrd's gothic romance series, Daughters of Hampshire. Her newest novel, Heirlooms, is different, but just as good. Heirlooms is a contemporary, split-time novel that brings together three generations of women in two different families. The novel touches on caring for widows and foreigners, as… Continue reading Heirlooms by Sandra Byrd
L.G. (Laura) graciously agreed to answer a few questions for us. Here's what she has to say!
Earlier this year I read Oathbound, and Victoria McCombs immediately got added to my "read more books by this author" list! I am patiently(?) waiting for book two of The Royal Rose Chronicles, but McCombs has more in store for her readers! She was gracious enough to answer a few questions for us. 1) What… Continue reading Victoria McCombs: Author Q&A
Why are we here? Why are we alive? We all want to feel like our lives have meaning. We want a purpose. As a Christian, I know what my purpose is. “Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.” - Ecclesiastes 12:13 “So, whether you eat or drink, or… Continue reading One Word 365 (2022)
This is not Walt Disney’s Peter Pan. I loved Disney’s Peter Pan. Even in that version, Peter is shown as selfish and moody, but Kara Swanson’s Heirs of Neverland duology focuses on just how much damage those aspects of Peter’s personality can cause. The dangers of never growing up, not just physically, but emotionally and… Continue reading Heirs of Neverland by Kara Swanson
When a rock and roll front man releases a book, you don't expect it to be on theology. Life on the road? Sure. The ups and downs of fame? Absolutely. Finding truth in a postmodern world? Not so much. But that's what John Copper has given us, and it is awesome! The Christian world has… Continue reading Awake & Alive to Truth by John L. Cooper
I normally review books in a series one-by-one. Even if they're all published, that's the norm for me. Not so with this series. Why? It's AMAZING! I didn't want to take the time to try to sort through what I thought about it. I just wanted to keep reading! It has been quite a while… Continue reading The Weaver Trilogy by Lindsay A. Franklin
The Prince of Spies, book 3 of Camden's Hope & Glory series, is the best in the series! This novel follows Delacroix sibling Luke and his star-crossed romance with Marianne. Unlike the romances in the other two novels in the series, Luke and Marianne are more evenly matched in their personalities, but circumstances threaten to keep… Continue reading The Prince of Spies by Elizabeth Camden
I recently passed 400 followers on Instagram, and I wanted to do a little bit of a celebration. As a thank you for following me, I’m doing a BOOK GIVEAWAY! It’s exclusively on Instagram for my Insta followers. But there’s a twist… The winner gets to choose the book they want from some of the… Continue reading Instagram Celebration Giveaway
Making time. Wouldn’t it be great if we could actually make time? A lot of writers struggle to make time to write. At the very least, we struggle to make the time to write consistently. My biggest writing obstacle is that I have a full time job that requires a lot of critical thinking and… Continue reading Making Time
