Friday Reads


A new month and a long weekend, to boot! Here's what I'll be diving into:

📘 Christian fiction: Facade by Pepper Basham
📗 Christian non-fiction: Leading in Tough Times by John C. Maxwell

I didn't purposely match these titles together based on the themes; however, that might be an idea worth exploring. While my Christian fiction titles are the books most on display in my home library, I have many Christian non-fiction titles all throughout the house (much to the chagrin of my husband in that the books are everywhere, not that they're Christian books 😄). That might be a fun adventure....

I actually read Facade on Kindle Unlimited a while back, but I recall it being so good that I wanted to get a paper copy and read it again to refresh my memory. Pepper's writing is just that amazing!

Review: A Brewed Awakening

With surnames like Austen and Dashwood, you know that the people of Wisteria, North Carolina are just itching for a romance to play out before their eyes. A Brewed Awakening by Pepper Basham is definitely a rude awakening for Daphne, and it's a fun journey that we get to go on as we see a small town band together to support old and new local businesses. Many thanks to  Thomas Nelson Fiction  and  NetGalley  for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.

Review: Beyond the Clouds - Women of Midtown #3

Am I ever excited to see  Beyond the Clouds by  Elizabeth Camden , the last book in the Women of Midtown series , release on January 20, 2026! I've appreciated the stories of heroism in this series, and what makes this book stand out is that Delia does not naturally have the traits to take risks or stand out. Her timid nature is relatable and shows that courage can come at a cost, making her adventure even more enthralling. Many thanks to  Bethany House Publishers  and NetGalley  for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own. Book Synopsis As teenagers, Delia Byrne and Finn Delaney fell in love while flying kites and dreaming of a future together—until betrayal tore them apart. Now, Delia, a pacifist and paralegal, and Finn, a decorated war hero, cross paths in famine-stricken WWI Belgium. As they navigate war's dangers, they face another risk—falling in love again.

Review: The Biblio Diet

Over the years, I've had the joy of reading many books on health and nutrition, partly a product of some studies I've done on it and also due to personal interest. As a result, I'm always intrigued when there is a Christian perspective on this subject.

Many thanks to Worthy Books for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.
