Cover REVEAL!!!! The Foxhole Victory Tour

It's rare for me to participate in cover reveals. However, I have LOVED all of Amy Lynn Green's books, so I decided to participate in the cover reveal for The Foxhole Victory Tour, releasing January 2024. This WWII novel follows the members of a variety show as they travel to North Africa to perform for the Allied troops with the USO.

Can't Wait Wednesday-The Blackout Book Club

Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. Typically they are books that have not been released yet. This week I am sharing The Blackout Book Club by Amy Lynn Green. If I am being honest I am tired of books set in World War II, I have overdosed! But, I LOVE Amy's writing and I truly cannot wait to read this one because I know it will be fantastic!!!

My review:

If I am being honest, I did not expect to enjoy this book. It is not something I would normally read. However, several people recommended it, and it's a book about books, so I thought I would try it.

Author: Amy Lynn Green

My Review:

The Lines Between Us is the second novel by Amy Lynn Green but reads as though she has been writing forever. You are immediately drawn into the story by the first few lines.

Rose Among Thornes

 Title: Rose Among Thornes

Author: Terrie Todd

Publisher: Heritage Beacon

Genre: Historical Fiction, World War II, Christian Fiction,

My review:

Terrie Todd weaves a story of racism, war, love, forgiveness, heartache, friendship, hope, and sacrifice. The story begins in 1941 with Rose and her friend Frieda as typical teenagers headed to the movies. The book spans five years, with an update from Tim in an epilogue.
