Christian Fiction Devourers discussion

'Spring Clean' ~ read a book that has been on your TBR list for more than a year prior to the date of the challenge (so, anything on your TBR list before 1 April 2023 counts)!
(For those who would like to keep track, a thread for all the year's monthly focus challenges can be found here.)

I will be reading Mending Fences for this challenge, which has been on my TBR list since February 2019.

Plenty to choose from for this challenge! Not sure yet what I'll read.

I'm in
(4/13/24) - on my list since November 2022
(4/20/24) - on my list since October 2022

Like Staci, I have plenty to choose from for this challenge. I'm also not sure yet what I'll read.

I have three to choose from. Since I am currently reading ]
I will read since it is one of the three and next in the series.

I’m in and I also have a lot of books to choose from!!

I started reading again only last January, and joined Goodreads a few months later. So, none. Done, haha!

BUT

I know I purchased a couple books Jan - Mar that maybe I could red one of these…?

Unread options
1. Spare, Price Harry - purchased Jan 2023
2. Katie's Redemption, Patricia Davids - purchased Mar 2023**
3. The Amish Innkeeper's Secret, Patricia Davids - Dec 2022**

**Both say book 1, not sure which really is book one.

Mmmmm

??

I'm not going to be picky and say they need to be on a GR TBR before April 2023. If you purchased them with the intent to read, that counts as a TBR 'list' to me!
As to the 'Brides of Amish Country' series, they are mostly stand-alone. I would read the innkeeper's secret one first as that appears to be one of those introductory novellas that authors sometimes do with a more limited release than the full novels in the series. (But, your mileage may vary!)

Thanks! I think I may start with that one, even the storyline seems good. And it’s a short read! Xo

I purchased this book in August of 2022 at StoryFest in St. Louis. I also met Mary there. So fun!

Done! This worked out to be a great little novella. Character’s Emma and Adam, I liked them.

Just finished, and I'm kinda kicking myself that it took me 5 years to read this book!
