I finished On This Foundation by Lynn Austin, excellent book and excellent trilogy. I'm sad to see that trilogy end. Ms. Austin is one of my favorite authors. Up next for me is Anchor in the Storm by Sarah Sundin. It is the second book in her Waves of Freedom trilogy.

I'm just starting "Rekindled" by Tamera Alexander. Big surprise in my choice of author, right? ;) I've read it before but not for several years, so I'm looking forward to reading it again!

I just finished Anchor in the Storm, excellent book. I have to wait now until next year for the third book to release. Up next for me is An Elegant Facade by Kristi Ann Hunter. I'm also re reading the entire Baxter family saga by Karen Kingsbury because yesterday a Christmas novella entitled A Baxter Family Christmas went on sale and I have been wanting it since I discovered it online. I bought my copy at Lifeway. I want to re read the all of the series because I want to refresh my memory and it's been a while since I read the earlier series. Plus, it will make the novella easier to read with the whole story fresh in my mind.

Finished reading Coraline yesterday. I had seen the movie and wondered how different the book was. They were pretty close to being the same. I enjoyed both.

I'm still in the process of reading The Maze Runner, which reminds me of Lord of The Flies... :? It's a good read.

And also, Owari No Seraph, which was recommend by Blitz. It's my first magna.
:D

Ugh. I still have to remember to read that one, it sounds beautiful. :)

Update, I finished the first book in the Maze Runner series, working on The Scorch Trials. It's interesting really, different than I'm used to. I mean, I have read The Hunger Games, where similar events occur. The characters seem more relatable though...

The first time I read "Pride and Prejudice" (many years ago) I found it hard to follow, but seeing the movie (in my case, the 5-hour version) really helped because you get an idea of the plot and characters and tone for some lines, and then when I read the book again I loved it! I've read it at least half a dozen times, if not more, over the years. I hope that the same works for you and that you enjoy Jane Austen's literary genius. :D

I'm reading "Reading in the Wild" by Donalyn Miller. It's about reading and the good habits and traits that lifelong readers share. Very interesting!

I just finished A Elegant Facade, very good. This book had a twist in it that I've never encountered before. I've also read A Season of Angels which is the 13th book in the late Thomas Kinkade's Cape Light series, also very good. I love that series. Up next for me is Vienna Prelude by Bodie Thoene. This is the first book in her Zion Covenant series. I read it once years ago but never got around to reading the entire series.

I finished Vienna Prelude, very good and very sad given the time period in which it is set. Up next for me is the second book Prague Counterpoint. I'm also reading Sheperds Abiding by Jan Karon.

Fun, Kaida! I've been meaning to do that myself one day and even picked up a cheap copy at a used book sale a while back, but haven't gotten around to reading it yet. :anxious:

I'm reading "Lady Undaunted," a novel by Tamara Leigh. Very interesting so far! I know my best friend will like it too, so I need to finish it so I can pass it on to her!

I finished Prague Counterpoint, excellent. Up next for me is The Cherished Quilt by Amy Clipston. It is the third book in her Amish Heirloom series.
