This is science fiction by CS Lewis. I'm enjoying it right now because I'm fairly new at running the church library and I've decided I need to get smart on the classics first. (Side bar: has anyone NOT read the Narnia books?)
I'm currently on Prelandr
Hi everyone! Long-time reader, first-time poster. ;)
I thought you might enjoy checking out my new novel, Sweeter. It's an inspirational novel, but a large part of the setting is within a church community, which I hope readers will find fun.

The Culper Ring Series and the Conspiracy of Spies Series are outstanding historical
I am currently reading Ginny Dye's series, historical fiction about Civil War days and what happened after. The series is called "The Bregdan Chronicles."
It's funny how we librarians are so busy doing library work that we don't get to read the books we purchase...so this summer I decided to read the Baxter Family Series in order...and should complete it shortly.
Now I need to get busy and order more of
Lorene Lumpkin's family gave the Enrichment Center her collection of Jennifer Chiaverini quilts novels. Lorene was still enjoying these when she passed away at age 102. Now I am hooked on these just like Lorene.

Thoroughly enjoyed Kate DiCamillo's book, Because of Winn-Dixie. Someone donated the original hard copy which is no longer available. First published in 2000. Newbery Award winner. Would love to see parents read this book with their children. The ta
I recently discovered this author and have loved reading her books. She was an MK and TCK and many of her experiences of growing up overseas, as well as living there as an adult, are reflected in her writing. This particular book is about a single
Totally loved her book, Before We Were Yours. This book is just as informative in teaching me about the lives of slaves in the United States in 1875. I can't wait to add it to our collection!
