The All American – Susie Finkbeiner

July 1, 2023 Josh Olds Comments Off on The All American – Susie Finkbeiner

Is it too cliché to call a book about baseball a home run? Is it too pretentious to call a book featuring 1950s Americana a Great American Novel? Even if they are, can I do […]

The Battle of Maldon: Together with the Homecoming of Beorhtnoth

April 27, 2023 Josh Olds Comments Off on The Battle of Maldon: Together with the Homecoming of Beorhtnoth

I’ve been a Lord of the Rings fan for just over twenty years now, and if you’re realizing that coincides with the Peter Jackson movie trilogy, you’d be absolutely right. A love of the books […]

Code Name Edelweiss – Stephanie Landsem

March 22, 2023 Kelsie Suter Comments Off on Code Name Edelweiss – Stephanie Landsem

My biggest complaint about Code Name Edelweiss by Stephanie Landsem is that it had to end. I fell in love with Landsem’s characters, and I did not want to part with them. Code Name Edelweiss […]

All the Lost Places – Amanda Dykes

December 12, 2022 Kelsie Suter Comments Off on All the Lost Places – Amanda Dykes

“I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see.” We all know that line from John Newton’s “Amazing Grace.” A former slaver turned Christian and abolitionist. Newton once said, “‘It […]

The Blackout Book Club – Amy Lynn Green

December 1, 2022 Bethany Davidson Comments Off on The Blackout Book Club – Amy Lynn Green

I have enjoyed Amy Lynn Green’s two previous novels, and this third one is excellent as well. Although each of her books so far focuses on World War II, they all cover unique and different […]

Horse – Geraldine Brooks

October 29, 2022 Kelsie Suter Comments Off on Horse – Geraldine Brooks

Let me preface this by saying I rarely review audiobooks because they often fail to leave a mark. They are unmemorable. I finish one, and I already have the next one waiting in the wings. […]

The Barrister and the Letter of Marque – Todd M. Johnson

October 4, 2022 Josh Olds Comments Off on The Barrister and the Letter of Marque – Todd M. Johnson

Historical fiction rises and falls with the author’s ability to convey the historical settings in a way just unfamiliar enough to leave the reading hanging on every work, but also just familiar enough that they […]

Dream Town (Aloysius Arthur #3) – David Baldacci

May 30, 2022 Josh Olds Comments Off on Dream Town (Aloysius Arthur #3) – David Baldacci

I don’t think I’ve ever had to drag myself to the end of a David Baldacci book. I have read every single Baldacci novel. Not all of them are good, but all of them have […]

Count the Nights by Stars – Michelle Shocklee

May 22, 2022 Bethany Davidson Comments Off on Count the Nights by Stars – Michelle Shocklee

I first noticed Count the Nights by Stars because of the beautiful cover, and even though I don’t often read Christian fiction, the premise appealed to me as well. I wasn’t sure what to expect […]

The Mozart Code – Rachel McMillan

March 15, 2022 Kelsie Suter Comments Off on The Mozart Code – Rachel McMillan

I went back and forth regarding rating The Mozart Code by Rachel McMillan. Four or five stars? For or five stars? I finally settled on a happy medium—4.5. Outside of novels by Kate Quinn and […]
