A Season on the Wind

Title: A Season on the Wind

Author: Suzanne Woods Fisher

Publisher: Revell

Genre: Christian Fiction, Amish, Romance,

My Review:

Opening a book and seeing a "meet the cast" section is a little scary for this reader. I was immediately leery because I have a hard time following quite a few characters, I am better with less. However, I need not have worried as the author took her time setting the stage and introduction of the characters.

Labyrinth of Lies

 Title: Labyrinth of Lies

Series: Triple Threat #2

Author: Irene Hannon

Publisher: Revell

Genre: Christian Fiction, Suspense, Romance

Source: Revell and Net Galley

My Review:

 Labyrinth of Lies is about the oldest Reilly sister, Cate. Even though it is the second in the series it can be read as a stand alone novel. The first book in the series, Point of Danger, featured Cate's sister, Eve.

Until I Met You

Title: Until I Met You

Series: Restoring Heritage #2

Author: Tari Faris

Publisher: Revell

Genre: Contemporary Romance, Christian Fiction

My Review:

In the second book of the Restoring Heritage series, we are mainly focused on Libby (Luke's sister) and Austin (Nate's brother). I thought it was funny that they were both new to the town of Heritage. I wasn't expecting that at all.

The Simple Difference

Title: The Simple Difference: How Every Small Kindness Makes a Big Impact

Author: Becky Keife

Publisher: Revell

Genre: Christian Nonfiction, Kindness

Source: ARC

My Review:

 I loved The Simple Difference. I think what we all need right now is more kindness, making Becky Keife's book very timely. God gave the idea of this book to Becky long before a pandemic hit and the timing of the release could not be more relevant.

The Chase

 Title: The Chase

Series: US Marshals #2

Author: Lisa Harris

Publisher: Revell

Genre: Christian fiction, suspense, romance

My review:

 So, if you remember from my review of the first book, The Escape, it left you on a cliff-hanger and wanting more. Well, The Chase, picks up from that event and keeps on rolling. Again, sucking the reader into the story immediately. Usually, these types of books do fine as a stand-alone, but I would HIGHLY recommend reading The Escape before picking up The Chase.

Courageous Influence

Title: Courageous Influence: Embrace the Way God Made You For Impact

Author: (in)courage Grace P. Cho

Publisher: Revell

Genre: Bible Study/Devotional 

My Review:

But in its purest form, influence is simply the capacity to effect change in someone.

This is the third book in the Courageous series and also the third that I have read. I love the way these studies are designed and organized. I appreciate the way they are created for personal growth. You can do the studies alone, or can do it with a group. Either way, I highly recommend these studies.

Come Back to Me

Title: Come Back to Me

Series: Water of Time #1

Author: Jody Hedlund

Publisher: Revell

Genre: Science Fiction, time travel, romance, young adult, dual-timeline

My review:

This is a very different read for me as I NEVER read Science Fiction. However, I heard a TON of great things about it so I decided to check it out of the library to see what all the fuss is about and I am so glad I did. I did not expect to like it, nor did I anticipate having a hard time putting it down! This is also the first book I have read by Jody Hedlund, although I hear her historical romances are great too.

Along a Storied Trail

 Title: Along a Storied Trail

Author: Ann H. Gabhart

Publisher: Revell

Genre: Historical Fiction/Christian Fiction

My Review:

I would describe this as a slow-build, slow read book. The book is well-written, the plot flows seamlessly, the characters are developed well, especially since you are following several. I was worried this would be similar to other recently published books as the general idea (delivering books to mountain areas) is the same, but Ann Gabhart weaves an incredibly unique story. She interweaves faith seamlessly and balances the reality of the depression, with the reality of living life in the mountains.
