I actually won a copy, so I will have it soon after it releases!! It comes out December 6, 2022.

Top Ten Tuesday-Wintry Reads
Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Cozy reads. I am not really feeling that topic (I have a hard time deciding what is a cozy read). I looked back over previous TTT topics and one was "cozy reads/wintry reads" so I decided to go with wintry reads, especially since it already feels like winter here in Ohio, LOL! 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.

Where the Blue Sky Begins
Author: Katie Powner
Genre: Christian Fiction, Contemporary
Publisher: Bethany House

My review:
Hi. It's me again, Cindy. Coming to you with a book that I have no idea how to review.
I have found that Katie Powner's books have emotional depth, the "wow" factor, and they tend to stick with you long after you read them. I loved Where the Blue Sky Begins.

Top Ten Tuesday-Books I enjoyed that have less than 200 ratings
Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Unlikable Characters You Can’t Help but Love. I am not doing that topic, mainly because my memory stinks and I can't remember any. So, I looked at past topics and decided to do "Books I loved that have less than 2000 ratings on Goodreads." But, when I looked at my favorites in Goodreads, I realized that could be most of my books 😢 so decided to narrow it down to those with less than 200, and books that have been out at least a year. 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.
10 Books I loved that have less than 200 ratings (click on the book if you want to read my review):
Transforming Your Thought Life has 139 Ratings, is rated 4.63, my rating= 5 stars.
