Happy Friday! And Happy Fourth of July weekend.🎆🎇🧨 This week I am blessed to be posting from my sister's house in TN😀 What are you doing this weekend?
Welcome to First Line Friday, hosted by Hoarding Books!! It’s time to grab the book nearest to you and leave a comment with the first line. This week I am sharing from The Scarlet Pen by Jennifer Uhlarik. The Scarlet Pen is book #12 in the True Colors series.
Title: The Amish Quiltmaker's Unruly In-Laws
Series: The Amish Quiltmaker #2
Author: Jennifer Beckstrand
Publisher: Zebra Books
Genre: Christian Fiction/Amish
My Review:
While this is the second book in the series, it can also be read as a stand-alone. However, to understand a bit more about a few of the characters, it would be great to start with the first book.
Linda Eicher is not afraid to speak her mind and often comes across as rude and unfeeling. She is feisty, athletic, and does quite a few sports your typical Amish young lady would not do.
Welcome back to another Top Ten Tuesday!!! Today's topic is what books that are releasing between now and the end of the year that you are really excited about? I am going to do my best to narrow this down to just 10, LOL, but it will not be easy!
In no particular order...
1. The Mistletoe Countess, release date September 1, 2021
Welcome to the Blog + Review Tour for Amish Country Threats by Dana R. Lynn, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!
Title: Amish Country Threats
Have you ever played the game two truths and a lie? It is a great ice-breaker game. The premise is easy, you list two truths and one lie and people are supposed to figure out which one is the lie. I decided to play that game, with a twist, on my blog today. I don't know about you but I just need a little fun. I am currently reading 6 or so books between different sites for reviews, or my own personal growth. I am going to put the cover of the 6 books here and I hope you will guess which one is the lie. Some will be easy if you have seen any of my posts recently or follow me on Goodreads. But, I am hoping to stump you. Can't wait to hear which one you think is the lie!
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.
