September 2024 Reading Wrap Up

September was a blur. I don't really feel like I accomplished or did much. I read 18 books and DNF'd two, but I had more variety in reading this month!! Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in the review.

5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

At Love's Command

Title: At Love's Command

Series: Hanger's Horsemen #1

Author: Karen Witemeyer

Publisher: Bethany House

Genre: Christian Fiction, Westerns, Historical Fiction, Romance

Source: Hoopla

My Review:

I put off At Love's Command for several years, even though I enjoy Karen Witemeyer's writing because it is a Western. If you follow me at all, you know that is not something I read much of.

Top Ten Tuesday-FALLing for reading

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books I Read/Avoided Because of the Hype (and did you make the right choice?) I tend to avoid books that are super hyped, for whatever reason that is a turn off to me. Sometimes I will end up reading a hyped book years later, but probably wouldn't have enough to make a list from. So, I am going to go with books that are great to read in the fall. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.  

Ten-ish books that are great for reading in the fall: (click on the book cover if you want to see my review of the book)

The sweater weather series are loosely tied together by their cozy fall romcom vibe and take place in the same town, Harvest Hollow.

  

26 Below

Title: 26 Below

Series: Alaskan Cyber Hunters #1

Author: Kimberley Woodhouse

Publisher: Kregel Publications

Genre: Suspense, Christian Fiction, Mystery

My Review:

I have read and enjoyed several of Kimberley Woodhouse's historical fiction books, but 26 Below is my first glimpse of her suspense writing. 

Fit God's Way

Title: Fit God's Way: Your Bible-Based Guide to Food, Fitness, & Wholeness

Author: Kim Dolan Leto

Publisher: Salem Books

Genre: Christian Nonfiction, Health, Fitness

Source: Own

My Review:

I bought Fit God's Way: Your Bible-Based Guide to Food, Fitness, & Wholeness on a whim this past summer. I was in Baker Bookhouse browsing, saw the book, and grabbed it and I am so glad I did!

{Insta} Connection

Title: {Insta} Connection

Series: The Insta series #2

Author: Jen Atkinson

Publisher: Independently Published

Genre: Romcom, Contemporary Romance, Sports Romance

Source: Kindle Unlimited

My Review:

Can I just tell you how dumb I feel for not quite making an *obvious* connection? I realized that while Insta can mean an instant connection (or in the first book boyfriend) but it is most likely because Instagram plays a big part in the stories! It is so well done, but it took my brain a while to make the connection 😂😂😂.

Stacking the Shelves #138, Sunday Post #135, Sunday Salon #129

Hey bookish friends! How are you doing? I am sick again, some type of virus, but thankfully negative for pneumonia, flu, and Covid. So, I don't have any solid plans for the weekend, just to rest and recover. I did go through all those cookbooks last weekend, three were extremely helpful for me, so I bought them, LOL! The rest went back to the library.
