During 2013, when my writing amped up along with the needs of my homeschooling, there simply wasn't the same opportunity to read. As a result, I became very picky, choosing books that I thought would delight. I wasn't always right, but I found lessons in each of the books below. Each title is a HOT-LINK.

 

• Wilderness Peril by Elizabeth Goddard

• Stranded by Dani Pettrey

• Dying to Read by Lorena McCortney

• A Familiar Shore by Jennifer Fromke

• Memory of Murder by Ramona Richards

• Critical Condition by Sandra Orchard

• Digging Up Death by Gina Conroy

• Miss Fishfly by Linda Glaz

• Lethal Legacy by Irene Hannon

• Tidewater Inn by Colleen Coble

• Shattered by Dani Pettrey

• Grudges Not Included by Shellie Nuemeier - provided a delightful escape for my precious redhead during a hectic season. Check out her first guest review!

• Lost Island Smugglers by Max Anderson - my youngest girls loved this middle-grade adventure.

• Polar Bear Plunge by Linda Glaz - this novella was just the right size and had exactly the right spirit to help me relax during a bustling season.
