Sorry, C.B., I don't really read enough Christian contemporary books to know which are best :)

:) That's kind of the point of this, just your favorites. I find it hard to find really good contemporary, which is why I made the list.
So I just added the only real christian contemporary that I've read and loved but ... um, what's all the christian fantasy doing on here? I can kinda get the Dragons in our Midst series, but I know for a fact that Goldstone Woods is NOT contemporary.And I just noticed Sarah's comment.
C.B., I believe that as the list creator, you have the power to remove anything that doesn't fit the list. Also, decide whether or not Contemporary fantasy counts or not, because if it does, I'll vote on the DioM series.

Heh. Glad I'm not the only one.
Contemporary Fantasy is fine with me. ;) I think the voters have to delete it, but I'll have to check...
I know another list I voted on had the creator remove one of my books because it was slightly off topic.

Also: the CotB series is in a sort of few-years-into-the-future setting, so I'm not sure it counts or not.
I think that if you remove your vote and no one else has voted on them, they'll disappear. I'm not sure on that one though.
Just to be clear: Christian contemporary are typically stories set in a more real world/historical fiction type of setting, and not a fantasy world like Goldstone Wood/Narnia, right? *feels rather silly for having to ask* :P

So instead of Lord of the Rings, it would be... *tries really hard to think of a famous Christian contemporary book* Okay, fine, The Fault in our Stars. *throws up*
If there's a way to remove books, I have no clue... :P That's fine, I think most of the fantasy ones have negative votes, so eventually they'll move off the page, when more votes are added.
Whoa, I can't believe my book is above Lizzy and Jane. Half of me is happy and half of me is like, "Nonono, guys, Lizzy and Jane is soooo much better!" XD
