Review of “Perilous Tides” by Elizabeth Goddard

I am a big fan of this author and I read the first book in this series. You do not have to have read the first in the series to read this one and enjoy it. This book starts right away with mystery and suspense which only grows the longer you read. It also has a lot of twists and turns. The dynamics between the main characters was well-written. I definitely recommend this book.

Review of “Fire Mountain” by Dana Mentink

I have read several books by this author and I have liked them all so I was excited to read this one. The suspense and mystery started from the very beginning which helped the book read fast in spite of the long chapters. My favorite character in the book was Archie. I thought he was a great addition to the story. I also thought it was so cute the name that Cullen gave the baby. He called her Tot. This novel was so good and I cannot wait until the next book in the series. I definitely recommend this book.

Review of “The Collector of Burned Books” by Roseanna M. White

I have read several books by this author and I have enjoyed them all. I also am a big fan of books set during World War II. The cover was beautiful and intriguing which drew me in as well. This novel is set in Paris and revolves around the books that were banned during World War II. One theme of this book is that you cannot judge a person by only what they look like on the outside instead you need to get to know who they are on the inside. Some other themes of the book are love, forgiveness, and fighting for those who cannot fight for themselves. The author made this time in history come alive for me. I definitely recommend this book to those who like reading World War II novels.

Review of “Escape to Whispering Creek” by Barbara M. Britton

This is the first book I have read by this author. This is a Romantic Christian Fiction novel. I was interested in reading this because the blurb on the back of the book sounded very interesting. This book felt very original to me. I loved all of the characters in this story. I really loved the dynamic between Wade and Emma. It was nice to see how she helped him go from grumpy to loving life again. I thought this story had all the emotions from amusement, sadness and down right happy. This book was one of those that was hard to put down. It kept my attention from the beginning to the end. I definitely recommend this novel.

Review of “An Unexpected Grace” by Tracie Peterson and Kimberly Woodhouse

I have read several books by Tracie Peterson but this is my first book I have read by Kimberly Woodhouse. This is the third in the series called The Jewels of Kalispell. I have not read the first two books in the series. The good thing is you can read this one without having read the first two and you will not be lost. This book has so many good things about it including some great secondary characters. James St. John, Johanna’s brother-in-law, was so well-written that I wanted to jump into the book and give him a piece of my mind. This story grabbed my attention from the very beginning and kept it until the very end. I definitely recommend this book!
