Welcome to Litsy!

Peculiar Treasures was my very first RJG title nearly 20 years ago. I instantly felt like these fictional characters were friends and we were figuring out life together. How mad and simultaneously excited was I to learn that despite this being book #1 that there were 27 books before this in various series and many that have been written since that only intensifies my feelings of holding these forever friends deep in my heart...

Got this book from my church and it‘s extremely insightful. Even tho I‘ve gone to church all my life, I do not know how to “study” the Bible and this book has descriptive study outlines and how to view the Bible: The Bible is about God, not about you.
I will need to change the way I read the Bible, I just read the whole thing like it‘s a novel, not a true story with lots of deeper meanings.

Completed a fiction and nonfiction from my TBR pile this week 😃

Found my May #BookedInTime Biblical fiction read!! Five novellas about 5 biblical women: Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary.

A wonderful book for kids and grown ups which explains the meaning of the cross with simple language and expressive pictures. We love it and read it every year around Easter!

I love the Criminal Minds vibes this book gives. It keeps you guessing and always questioning each person who makes an appearance in the story. I did find I struggled to really get into the story, some parts of it did get a bit dull. However, some of the things in it has me curious about how the rest of the series will go.

This was pretty good. Learned some things from it. Especially about being passive. I will recommend anyone to read this one.

I absolutely loved the main characters. We got to meet one of them in the book that came before this one, and he was by far one of my favorites. When I found out this one was about him, I couldn't wait to read it. It was such a cute story. The book did have some strong Christian themes that were woven throughout the story. There were one or two moments where it felt a little forced, but for the most part, it was natural.
