My Review:

Sometimes I watch Faith Womack's videos on YouTube and find her teachings interesting. When I saw she had a book, No More Boring Bible Study, I was curious and decided I had to read it.

Counterfeit Truth

Title: Counterfeit Truth

Series: Hidden Hearts of the Gilded Age #.5

Author: Crystal Caudill

Source: own

My Review:

I don't read novellas very often because I don't feel like they give the full story, or enough of the story to be invested in the storyline.

Claire Holloway is Winging it

Title: Claire Holloway is Winging it

Author: Angela Ruth Strong

My Review:

I had the honor of meeting Angela Ruth Strong at a reader event in November of 2024. At that time, this book was in progress, and Angela was telling me a little bit about it. I was excited about the uniqueness of the storyline. Claire Holloway Is Winging It did not disappoint.

I also found out my work schedule is changing, but I don't know yet, if I will get to keep the third day or not, and it is changing on Monday.

April Reading Wrap Up 2026

TODAY IS MY 5 YEAR BLOGGING ANNIVERSARY!!! How should I celebrate?? And, THANK YOU for supporting me over these last 5 years! Now, back to our regularly scheduled program...April's reading stats.

April's reading had a very rocky start, with my mom's passing and funeral, but I think I made up for it the last half of the month, LOL. I read 18 books and had no DNFs, although I did start a nonfiction that I owned, and decided not to read it...so an unofficial DNF. All four of the nonfiction books had been started before this month. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in reading my review.

5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Miss Newbury's List

Title: Miss Newbury's List

Author: Megan Walker

Narrator: Justine Eyre

Source: own

My Review:

I can't believe this is the first book I have read by Megan Walker. Her writing felt like an old friend. I was sure I had read something by her before. Well, now I have a new friend, and I will be reading whatever I can get my hands on by her!
