Happy Friday, my bookish friends! Any
plans for the weekend? Not much going on here.
Welcome back to First Line Friday hosted by Carrie at Reading is My SuperPower!! I am also linking up with Gilion on Rose City Reader for Book Beginnings. This is where you share the beginning of the book that you are reading. To join in the fun grab the book you are reading and leave a comment with the first line (or your link). This week I am reading Elysium Tide by James R. Hannibal.

My Review:
I am not a missionary, but I have lived in other countries. I am fascinated to hear other people's accounts of their time overseas. Miriam Davis wrote Utterly Amazed to tell how her two-year assignment turned into her life's work.
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 Amish Jane Doe by Shelley Shepard Gray. I love her books and I love the way this one sounds!!! It is supposed to release August 23, 2022.
Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books With a Unit of Time In the Title (seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, eternity, etc.) (Submitted by RS @ The Idealistic Daydream) I am going to give this one a shot and hope I can come up with 10. I can't think of any off the top of my head. I am going to start with books I have not read that I own to read, either physical or on Kindle and see where that gets me. 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.

My Review:
This is going to be a choppy review simply because I am not sure how to review New Wine Transporation Company. I didn't love it but I didn't hate it either. It sits solidly in the middle of the rating scale for me.

My Review:
This is my first time reading Melanie Jacobson, but it will not be my last.
