The Health and Happiness Society is a series by Katie Cross. I read the first book in the series in October of 2018 and finished the fifth book on August …

Not Your Average Book Review
Book reviews. Authors will go to great lengths to get readers to post even the shortest one on Amazon and other book retailer sites. Plenty of authors don’t read the reviews on their books, though. They don’t want to know what people didn’t like. Not me. I think I’ve read every review. Some of them …

Are You Headed for Burnout?
Like so many other people, I was certain burnout would never happen to me. I loved writing. It was my calling and purpose to write these books, and burnout wouldn’t happen to someone who was doing God’s will. Right? Wrong. Or else writing and independently publishing that series of biblical fictionalizations wasn’t God’s will for …

Spice up your summer with SPICE BRINGER

Saying Goodbye to The Emperor’s Edge
Republic by Lindsay Buroker My rating: 5 of 5 stars I ADORE these characters. I read the last chapter super slow, hoping to extend my visit with them. This book reads more like alternative history or even science fiction than fantasy, but I still loved it. Buroker does a great job making each narrator’s scenes …

Summer with THE SUNSHINE SISTERS
Have I mentioned how much I love using Overdrive to checkout eBooks without ever leaving my house? It is the perfect library. And THE SUNSHINE SISTERS by Jane Green is a title you should check out (by any checkout method). This isn’t my typical read. I say that half the time I write a review, …

Three Reasons I Avoid Writing Book Reviews
I read tons of books. And I enjoy reading them. Even if I don’t end up liking the book all that much, reading has the potential to make me a better writer of stories. And even though I track all my books on Goodreads, I’ve stopped writing reviews for many of the books I read. …
