This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is a TTT Rewind where we're supposed to pick a previous topic that we missed or would like to re-do/update. When I started this blog in 2017, one of the first TTT posts I did was "Hidden Gems in Christian Fiction" (for the prompt "Hidden Gems in X Genre"). … Continue reading Top Ten Tuesday: Hidden Gems in the Christian Market Part 2

Book Review: Once Upon an Irish Summer by Lisa T. Bergren
It is so relieving to continually enjoy new books by favorite authors. For some reason, I'm always worried that I'll pick up their latest book and won't like it. But when it comes to Lisa T. Bergren's books, I'm never disappointed. Fiona Burke is one step away from finishing her dissertation on famed pirate queen, … Continue reading Book Review: Once Upon an Irish Summer by Lisa T.

Book Review: Selah by Lisa T. Bergren
The first two books in The Sugar Baron's Daughters series by Lisa T. Bergren swept me from my comfortable couch to the wild jungles of Nevis during the start of the Revolutionary War.

Book Review: Once Upon an Alaskan Summer by Lisa T. Bergren

Contemporary romance, especially a Christian romance, isn't my preferred genre.

Book Review: King’s War by Jill Williamson
If I'm being honest, I hate long books. It's not that I don't like the story or characters, but sometimes books that are over 500 pages can be quite daunting. Plus, they take longer to read, and with soooo many books in the world to read, I have a hard time concentrating on long books. … Continue reading Book Review: King’s War by Jill Williamson
Book Review: Keturah by Lisa T. Bergren
I've been a fan of Lisa T. Bergren's books for a long time now, and I never have to worry if her books will keep me interested while also including profound takeaways. Keturah is no exception with its balance of thrilling events and deep moments of truth. When the Banning sisters learn of their father's … Continue reading Book Review: Keturah by Lisa T. Bergren
Top Ten Tuesdays: Hidden Gems in Christian Fiction
I grew up reading a lot of "Christian" books, and I've come to learn that books under the "Christian Fiction" genre have been given a stigma. They have too many flaws. Or they are too preach-y. Or the writing falls flat, the characters are "too" perfect or "too" imperfect. Basically, it winds down to Christian … Continue reading Top Ten Tuesdays: Hidden Gems in Christian Fiction
