Collection Development - Winter Edition

I wasn’t sure what to name this post. Winter spending spree? February buying binge? Both of these options seemed a little vulgar. Since I was coming to the end of my “new books” collection for the church library, it was necessary to do a little shopping trip in order to present some fresh titles!

Here’s a list of the latest:

Lady in the Mist by Laurie Alice Eakes 
Heart’s Safe Passage by Laurie Alice Eakes

*Any suggestions for additions? 

Fall Book Buzz

As we head into the Fall and all the insanity that surrounds the word 'September,' it might be nice to find a comfortable hiding place and kick back with a few good novels until October arrives. Christian fiction has begun to explore new horizons in terms of plot lines and character development. Don’t get me wrong, historical romance and Amish/Omish family drama will remain popular! However, some authors out there are highlighting genres such as medical crime, animal features and cross-cultural romance. Will these books make it on your “to read” pile?
