Welcome to Litsy!

So I am horribly late for mays #bookedintime - sorry!This was a compelling story of Rahab a prostitute who survived the fall@of Jericho and went on to marry Salome. Christian fiction is not something I have ever really read but I did enjoy the strong message of faith, forgiveness and more.

I really enjoyed this series of novellas about Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary. These women were strong of faith and character and stood fast in their convictions when many around them were filled with doubt (about everything not just their belief in God). Ruth's story was my favorite.

There was a lot of bible study at the end of each story that I skipped. But as a historical fiction read--Worthy! I learned a lot.

#BookedInTime

Back to my #BookedInTime read. Picking up where I left off with Ruth's story.

And yay! The weather is finally cooperating for reading in my new outdoor space ☀️😎

Starting this for May #BookedInTime biblical fiction

Since it's 5 novellas I'm not sure if I'm going to read it straight through or break it up with some other reading 🤷🏻‍♀️

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

This was recommended to me by someone that had just discovered this author. I wasn‘t sure what to expect but I very much enjoyed this audiobook.

1. Where is my mask. I can not believe that I have left the house without one.
2. Grateful for the nice weather, because it got me to go outdoors and walk a little.

Pearl in the Sand by Tessa Afshar is AMAZING. I highly recommend this story. Check out my thoughts, then purchase a copy of the 10th Anniversary edition today. You will not be disappointed! #PearlintheSand #ReadTessaAfshar #BiblicalRomance #ILoveThisBook

It was a pick. Unfortunately I did not get to finish before it became due at the library. I will finish the last two novellas when I get the chance. Sometimes a bit repetitive. It must be difficult to take a few verses/chapters from the Bible and make a full story. Fascinating read.
