Welcome!

Thank you for taking the time to stop by this little corner of the Internet!

Though I started blogging over 20 years ago, I will confess that I have not usually keep up my blogs for longer than several years at a time. For this blog, I have instead decided to focus on a topic that actually consumes a lot of my spare time so that I can combine my interests (and test my longevity and commitment).

This topic is of course, Christian books!

Through casually browsing Bookstagram over the past few years to glean recommendations for new reads, I see that there is a place where people can share about books, and it is celebrated. How refreshing to see a reading culture remain strong amidst many other distractions, several of which have kept me scrolling non-stop to learn about books rather than simply reading them. Since I fall into this camp, this blog can help me to get through my TBR (to be read) pile in order to actually make a semblance of a dent into it. I recognize that it is such a blessing to be able to own and access so many incredible thoughts and stories, captured as written words. As such, I am excited to delve into this new journey of also writing out my own thoughts.

My hope is that I can explore and review both Christian fiction and Christian non-fiction on here. I am prone to being a completionist who tries to read in chronological publication order, so there may be a few series on here as well. I am also pretty hashtag-adverse and prefer lists, which will make an appearance throughout the blog.

Happy reading!

Review: A Heart to Treasure - Searching Hearts #1

There can be a genteelness to Regency books that allows for reflection while reading about the hardships that people faced during this time in history.
