Top Ten Tuesday: Self-Published Books

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is Indie/Self-Published Books. I'm not familiar with a lot of self-published books. I get most of my books through the library and libraries tend to not buy self-published unless there's a high demand or another reason (such as a local author). This makes it difficult for me to even …

Top Ten Tuesday: Hidden Gems in the Christian Market Part 2

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"). …

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is Bookish People I’d Like To Meet. While this prompt has a lot of options, I'm just going to make it easy and pick a few authors I'd love to meet and/or hear speak. Maggie Stiefvater: I don't know if I even need to meet her but hearing her …

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, …

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

I wasn't so much interested in reading Once Upon an Alaskan Summer as I was in supporting Lisa T. Bergren and her books.

Top Ten Tuesday: Auto-Buy Authors

This week's Top Ten Tuesday prompt is Auto-Buy Authors. I'm not sure if any author is 100% an auto-buy for me because I do look at the book they are publishing before I decide to buy it or not. There are several others, though, that I trust will write good books, no matter what, and I …

Bergren's ability to blend the historical details with the relevant and relatable struggles of a modern audience. With Verity, Bergren does much the same, emphasizing a message that focuses on following one's heart, no matter what …
