so-soI enjoyed the story, but I did find my mind wandering a bit. It might have to do with the narrator, but maybe it is the writing style. It was a decent story, so I will probably check out more from this author.

panI was so excited for this book but it simply did not pan out. It was much more focused on relationships than the story and I frequently found my mind wandering.
Set in two different times in Wisconsin, the story flows back and forth between then and now with two strong female characters as leads who are figuring out their own mysteries. It really sounded so wonderful but just not my cup of tea.
Help! This audio book is killing me! I need a better one but I'm horrible at picking anything.
Anyone have any suggestions for a mystery or horror that is read really well?
Jamie Jo Wright wrote an intriguing mystery that didn't scare the pants off me.
"She didn't want her weakness to lead to temptation." This quote is a great example of why I enjoy reading Christian Fiction ~ it reminds me of Biblical truth. Enjoying a ☕️ date with my husband while the boys are at youth group.
I'm reading The Bound Heart by Laura Frantz on Kindle but it is way too hot outside to bring my iPad. I've had this book on my shelf for about a month. I'm so glad I picked it up in the used section. It is mysterious!
pickI actually finished this awhile back and forgot to review it. It was amazing! I loved the suspense and the intertwining of past and present stories. I highly recommend this one!
pickDue to her husband dying two years ago Kaine decides to start a new life in Wisconsin. In the past Ivy tries to find out the identity of a woman found dead in a tree. The two will have something in common.
My goodies from the library today! Zach has chosen Deep Zone for our next read together. Looking forward to it, as well as the others! Happy Saturday, everyone!
pickFirst time I have read this author. Plan to read more by her. I think she's a good story teller.
pickDebut author. Will read future books of hers. The start was a little confusing but quickly became clear. Enjoyed the mystery and sex trafficking/abuse background theme.

Have you ever been jamming out to a new song and then about halfway through realize that it‘s by a Christian rock band and your like- hmm, that was... unexpected?! That‘s the experience I‘m having with this book. I‘m not necessarily mad about it but I do feel a little... duped? The mysterious storyline has me hanging on for now, so I‘ll give it a fair shot! 🤔
I have a new book in my hand, Live PD on the tube, and a fresh pitcher of sweet tea in the fridge... this is my kind of Friday night!
Listen Littens... Amazon and I already have a pretty healthy (unhealthy?) relationship without you guys posting new adorable things that I neeeeeed!!! How could I resist these Funkopops?! I mean really 🤷♀️
Also pictured is my latest library pick up 💜📚
So many books I want to read! We‘ll see if there‘s enough time for me to get through all these books in March.

pickI passed over The House on Foster Hill three times before being convinced I had to read it! How was Jaime Jo Wright going to work God into this kind of story?
I doubted my choice upon reading the opening line and at the house description I just about put the book down. The writing is compelling though, snuggled under my duvet, I flipped the electronic pages swiftly! The twists are surprising but well-thought out , loved it!
pickThe House on Foster Hill is a great read. The exciting mystery's setting alternates between 1906 and present day. Very well written mystery with romance mixed in.
Kaine is no stranger to death. In desperate need of a fresh start, after the passing of her husband 2 weeks prior, she purchases an old house in her grandfathers Wisconsin hometown. But one look at the abandoned house immediately leaves her questioning her rash decision. And when the house's dark history comes back, Kaine is forced to face the realization she has nowhere to hide.
pickI really enjoyed this! It's a first full-length novel from this author, and I must say I was impressed. It's part historical AND contemporary mystery with some romance. A slight complaint is in its length (I think it could have been tightened up a little more). It was well-written, with some twists and turns, as well as including some wonderfully strong, courageous women tackling some horrific plights. 5/🌟 Thanks #NetGalley! #romantsy #osrbc
Next up, another ARC (thanks to #NetGalley!), due out in December. A Christian fiction murder mystery debut novel that toggles back and forth between the early 1900s and present day. Spooky cover! 😳 I'm 13% in and enjoying it so far! Stay tuned....
