Lately I’ve been reading a lot of YA and light fiction, rather than following the 2016 Reading Challenge that I would like to complete this year. I do plan to get back to it before long, but for the past few weeks, the lighter fare has been a nice diversion. Here’s a list of some of my recent reading (and…

Reading Challenge Update
Here is this month’s update on my progress with the 2016 Reading Challenge. You’ll notice that when I find an author I enjoy, I tend to read several of their books before moving on to someone else. A book with a theological viewpoint you disagree with: Love’s Pursuit by Siri Mitchell A book about abortion: Unplanned by Alana Terry (Ebook currently…

Free Kindle Books
Disclosure: This post does include some affiliate links to Amazon, but other than that, it is not a sponsored post. I’ve mentioned before how much I enjoy my Kindle. There is definitely something to be said for the touch and feel of a good old-fashioned printed paper book. However, having a Kindle has allowed me access to many more books…

Currently Reading
I’m making good progress on the 2016 reading challenge I started in January. However, I have abandoned the idea of trying to read the books in the order listed. I’m not even sticking to one group at a time. Basically, I’m back to reading whatever I want, then trying to make the books fit in the categories listed. I don’t…

The Last Ride – Review
The Last Ride is the third book in the Circle C Milestones series by Susan K. Marlow. I received a free copy from the publisher in exchange for my honest review. This series continues the story of Andrea Carter from the Circle C Adventures series for younger readers. The Milestones series is for young adults, and I think The Last Ride…

I keep a list of the ones I find particularly thought-provoking, and every now and then I share my list with you in a Blog Post Round-up. Here are the…

Write 31 Days Wrap-up
Today wraps up the Write 31 Days challenge. And while I didn’t actually write something new every day, I did manage to post every day throughout the month of October. That was challenge enough for this year. Maybe next year I’ll have more of a theme for October’s challenge. It’s been a lot of fun. I’ve enjoyed coming up with…

Library Blessing
Being the book hound I am, I couldn’t resist this quaint framed Library Blessing when I came across it at a garage sale the summer of 2008. I just love the verbose pompous wording. Library Blessing O God, the Lord of all knowledge, mercifully bestow thy blessing upon this library that it may be protected from fire and all other…
