Once Upon a Buggy

Title: Once Upon a Buggy

Series: The Amish of Apple Creek #2

Author: Shelley Shepard Gray

Genre: Amish, Christian Fiction, Retellings,

Publisher: Kensington

My review:

When asked if I would review Once Upon a Buggy, I knew I liked the author's books and figured I could squeeze it into my schedule. I had no idea it was a Beauty in the Beast retelling. I have not read the first book in the series, (yet) but Once Upon a Buggy can be read as a stand-alone novel.

Castle of Refuge

Castle of Refuge (The Dericott Tales, #2) Title: Castle of Refuge

Series: Dericott Tales #2

Author: Melanie Dickerson

Publisher: Thomas Nelson

Genre: Fairy Tale Retelling/Christian Fiction/Romance 

My Review:

"Audrey hid behind a tree and watched a knight and his squire riding down the lane." From the first line to the last, Castle of Refuge captivated me. It is Gripping. Compelling. Powerful.  And faith is as natural as breathing.

"That was what Audrey wished for her life to be-a burst of light. An intense color."
