Review: Snow Globe Secrets - Flight to Freedom #5

Snow Globe Secrets book cover on blue background

The final book in the Flight to Freedom series, Snow Globe Secrets by Laura Thomas is a suspenseful Christmas mystery that combines the idyllic scenes of snow globes with a romantic story while facing unexplainable threats. Combining a British author with a small town set in British Columbia, Canada, what's not to love (including the very author of this book)?!

Book Synopsis

Shootings. Snow globes. Secrets.

When successful realtor, Alexis James, witnesses a shooting outside the bookstore in her hometown of Hollybrook, she soon realizes the perpetrator has unfinished business, and now she is caught in the crossfire.

Tom Harrington is a British, best-selling author who needs to honor a promise and find some answers in this Canadian winter wonderland—but trouble follows him across the ocean.

As Alexis is swept up in a festive whirlwind of danger and love, Tom attempts to break through her ice queen persona. But when chilling walls close in, they both have to decide: can they share their truth, rekindle their faith, and risk their lives if they have any hope for a Happily Ever After?

Book Thoughts

Getting to read Snow Globe Secrets right after The Christmas Cabin was a treat as I was able to find out Alexis James’ story after being introduced to her sister, Carla, in the previous Christmas book. Known as the Ice Queen, Alexis has quite the story when she has a literal run-in with a man escaping bullets. I enjoyed that beneath her frosty exterior, she had a passion for collecting snow globes, granting us a peek into her complicated life. I could relate to her feeling disconnected and desiring the picturesque scenes of her globes, which was an apt analogy to how Alexis felt before God. Her no-nonsense approach made it even more endearing to see how she responded to Tom, who exuded warmth and genuine interest.

In solving the mystery of why Alexis and Tom were being targeted, I appreciated all of the twists and turns that the author provided as I was keen to see how it all came together. As a result, fans of literature and mysteries will not be disappointed in piecing all of the clues together. Readers looking for a suspenseful Christmas story with a heart that thaws over time toward God and love will enjoy this splendid scene out of a snow globe.

Review: Perspectives on the World Christian Movement

If you were to ask me what my favourite Christian non-fiction book is (outside of the Bible), I would hands down pick Perspectives on the World Christian Movement . Comprised of shorter essays and excerpts from seminal missiologists around the world, this classic book is the textbook for the Perspectives on the World Christian Movement course, offered by Perspectives USA . I had the blessing of taking this course when I was in college, and it completely changed my life. Book Synopsis Perspectives on the World Christian Movement presents a multi-faceted collection of readings exploring the biblical, historical, cultural, and strategic dimensions of world evangelization. Writings from more than 150 mission scholars and practitioners (over 60 of them new to this edition) portray the history and anticipate the potential of the global Christian movement.

Review: Wild Light - The Light Rising #2

Did I read this book twice within two weeks? Yes; it was that good! The Light Rising Series is likely one of my favourite Christian series this year and I'm thrilled that the second book is now available. Wild Light by Ivy Emerson is everything I hoped for, plus so much more in a book that is clearly Christian while taking readers on a wild adventure. Many thanks to the author for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own. Book Synopsis I’ve built my life on distance. Do the job. Keep it simple. Walk away. It’s safer that way— until she becomes the one person I can’t stay away from. I’ve built my life on independence. Protect the animals. Let the work be enough. Just me and God— until he becomes the one person I don’t want to lose. The sanctuary was supposed to be safe. It isn’t. Someone is hiding something… and the closer we get to the truth, the more dangerous it becomes. But even in the wild, light finds a way in. Wild...
