Summer is now complete with the heat in most of our areas. So take a few minutes to share what you are reading during these hot summer days? Fiction? Non-Fiction?
I am just about finished reading the book Appalachian Song by Michelle Shocklee. I've r
The authors of historical fiction as well as other Christian Fiction genres receive wonderful emails from their readers. As many of you know, Diane Moody is my sister. She is a Christian Fiction author and member of the Church Librarians Network. Las
I'm so happy for my friend Amy Callahan Johnson and the release of her devotional, Journey With Jesus! Amy is such a gifted story-teller who shares so many of her incredible life experiences, all wrapped in the hope and encouragement found in the scr

I was adding this book to our online library catalog and the title caught my attention, so when I finished for the day I sat down to read. Immediately struck by the easy writing style and faithful biblical content - it felt like a friendly conversat
Recently our pastor preached on grief and hardship. He recommended Songs of Suffering by Joni Eareckson Tada. I ordered it for the library. Before I sent it on to be cataloged, I took a moment to look at it and found it not only beautiful but a wonde
I haven't been truly gobsmacked by a book in a long time, and I Am in Here literally took my breath away! The premise of this suspense thriller, set in a volatile family predicament that seems to go from bad to worse by the minute, is brilliantly tol
I've started reading biographies for awhile. Must say I am finding this book fascinating. I have read articles about Hannah More that were focused on her connection with Wilberforce. But there is much more to her journey. She and her sisters played h
Wow, a bunch of us are having a GREAT experience reading Charles Martin’s third book of his Murphy Shepherd series: The Record Keeper. I am assuming I am not the only one having many profound spiritual reading experiences while reading this book. Ear

I have been alternating between Charles Martin books and Cathy Gohlke books. I am filling in the the ones I had not previously read and am going from oldest to newest.

This is historical fiction reminiscent of "Christy" by Catherine Marshall. It is our September selection for ladies' book club at our church library.
