The Town of Odyssey

I finished The King's Mercy, very good. Up next for me is Lady Jayne Disappears by Joanna Davidson Politano, first time reading this author.

I'm reading "The Way of Letting Go" by Wilma Derksen. It's non-fiction and written by a woman whose daughter was murdered in 1984 and her journey of forgiveness, with some principles that apply to a variety of traumatic situations. It's a very moving story so far, and I knew before I even started that it wouldn't wrap up neatly from a point of earthly justice, making her faith through decades of wondering and years of trials and retrials all the more amazing.

I finished Lady Jayne Disappears. Awesome book, I highly recommend it. Up next for me is A Harvest of Hope by Lauraine Snelling. It is the second book in her Song of Blessing series.

I'm reading "Love Does" by Bob Goff. It's hilarious - he has such a way with words that I actually had to stop reading and wipe my eyes because I was laughing so hard! He also packs a lot of truth in about loving others and loving God.

I finished The Ladies of Ivy Cottage last night, wonderful book!! Up next for me is All Manner of Things by Susie Finkbeiner, first time reading this author.

I'm reading "Never Say Die: The Story of David Yone Mo and the Myanmar Young Crusaders" by Douglas Hsu. It's a fascinating biography about one man's journey from years of drug addiction to a miraculous healing leading him to Jesus to helping tons of other people in Myanmar/Burma. I'm not quite done yet. I would definitely recommend it!

I'm reading The Timepiece by Beverly Lewis. It is the sequel to The Tinderbox and picks up right where The Tinderbox ended. Very good so far.

I just started reading a biography of George Mueller published in 1941. I know a bit about him and thought his biography would be well worth a read!

I finished The Timepiece, wonderful book. Up next for me is The British Are Coming by Rick Atkinson. This is the first (non fiction) book in a trilogy about the American Revolution.

That sounds really interesting, Laurie!

I started "Sixty Acres and a Bride" by Regina Jennings last night. I read it years ago and decided to read it again.

I finished The British Are Coming, very good book. Now I have to wait for the next book in the trilogy. Up next for me is Dark Ambitions by Irene Hannon. It is the third and final book in her Code of Honor trilogy.

I'm reading "Love in the Balance" by Regina Jennings. I read it years ago and actually don't remember it very well, so it's been fun!

I finished Dark Ambitions, excellent book. Up next for me is With This Pledge by Tamera Alexander. It is the first book in her Carnton trilogy/series. 

Tamera Alexander is such a great author!

I'm reading "Maniac Magee" by Jerry Spinelli. I read it many years ago and it's such a great book that I'm so glad that I decided to read it again.

I just finished With This Pledge, I loved it!! Up next for me is No Ocean Too Wide by Carrie Turansky.

Nice! No Ocean Too Wide looks really interesting. I'd like to read it one day.

I'm about to start "Caught in the Middle" by Regina Jennings. I read it years ago but don't really remember it well.

I finished No Ocean Too Wide, excellent book. Up next for me is Jerusalem's Queen by Angela Hunt. It is the third book in her Silent Years series.

I read the first one in the Silent Years series but not the other ones. I'll have to find them. You have great taste in books, Laurie.

I'm reading "The Walls are Talking" by Abby Johnson. It's very interesting, though not an easy read.

I finished Jerusalem's Queen, excellent book. I highly recommend Angela Hunt. Up next for me is The Bride of Ivy Green by Julie Klassen. It is the third and sadly final book in her Tales From Ivy Hill trilogy. 

I'm starting "The Holiday Courtship" by Winnie Griggs. I really enjoy her books and recently realized that I have a few of her books sitting around unread, so I'm going to remedy that situation!
