The Song of Sourwood Mountain by Ann Gabhart

When this book came out I knew that I was going to love it! The beautiful cover and the description intrigued me. I'm so glad that I read it! Here's my review: Wow! Another fantastic book by Ann Gabhart! It's set in Sourwood, Kentucky, a small community in the mountains. This book pulled on my heartstrings in many ways. There are many difficulties to overcome. Death, superstitions, and loss are part of life. Each of the main characters had special and unique qualities. Gordon, with his passion to establish a church and school in the mountains. Mira with her compassionate heart and patience. Ada June, with her tender heart that longs for family and is loyal to those she trusts. The love story is special. Gordon knows his hearts desire, but Mira is cautious. As she learns to put her faith in the Lord, her heart opens to Gordon. Gordon and Mira are great examples of how the Bible reminds us to care for the widows and orphans. They truly are the hands and feet of Jesus.

Becoming Madam Secretary by Stephanie Dray

I really enjoyed this book! It inspired me to research this time period and the people who shaped history then! Here's my review: This is an intriguing and interesting book! Historical fiction is my favorite genre, and this book is captivating. I had never heard of Frances Perkins before. I will definitely be researching her life and the ways that she attributed to politics. She was an amazing woman who sacrificed a lot to help her country. If you read this book, let me know what you think! Jeanette

Until We All Share Joy by Heather Wood

This is a wonderful novella! I was totally captivated by the story in its entirety. The characters are relatable and easy to like. Titan is my favorite! His compassion and gentleman-like ways are endearing. He grows so much during the book and he also helps others grow. Grandfather Gates is wonderful! He appears gruff and grouchy but he has a heart of gold. This book helped me to remember how blessed I am to have a family that loves me and to cherish every moment with them. I can't wait to read the rest of the books in the series!

The Higher Desire Wife by J Parker

There's a lack of Christian books available to review on Library Thing so this is one that I chose to win. It's pretty explicit in some areas, some of it actually made me blush. Here's my review: I found this book to be interesting and informative! This book outlines helpful information for women whose sexual drive is higher than their husbands. The author provides hope, advice, and even scriptures to help women as they walk this path. I found a lot of wisdom and practical ways to apply this information in my own life. I won this book from Baker Books via LibraryThing!
