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.

Cuilin That sounds really cool. ( I would‘ve skipped the Bible study too.) 🤫 7mo
dabbe Gotcha as a “pick“ on the spreadsheet! 🤩 7mo
TheBookgeekFrau @dabbe 💛💛💛 7mo
TheBookgeekFrau @Cuilin It was a lot better than I thought it would be! It leaned way more to historical fiction than religion (outside of the Bible study sections). I'm glad I read it, and if it weren't for #BookedInTime I probably would've overlooked it at the LFL where I found it 😊 7mo

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 ☀️😎

Bookwomble That looks like a tranquil, blissed-out reading space 😌 7mo
Crazeedi What a lovely reading nook! 7mo

Read4life Woohoo! So happy the weather is good you can enjoy it. 7mo
bookandbedandtea How wonderful! I'm enjoying my (semi)outdoor space at the moment too! (It's our back porch 🤷‍♀️😁) 7mo
TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea I love the pix you've posted of your back porch; it looks so cozy!! The winds started kicking up shortly after I posted and I'm now watching some dark clouds making their way over Pikes Peak. I think it's a sign that there's things other than reading that need seeing to 😂 7mo
TheBookgeekFrau @Read4life Thank you; me too! 7mo

This week, I‘m sharing my #weeklyfavorites. The only book I finished this month and liked was the tagged book. It‘s about all of the women in the Bible. It was interesting. I think it‘s a good book for a Women‘s Bible Study group or to read on your own for fun like I was doing. I‘m not in a Bible Study group but I still got a lot out of reading this book. This one was on my #bookspinbingo list and I can finally cross it off.

Read4life Nice pick! 🤓 8mo

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 🤷🏻‍♀️

Cuilin You got this 💪 Looks great. 8mo
bookandbedandtea I read these years ago and remember being impressed with the way the author filled in the stories for these women. I especially liked Tamar's and Rahab's stories. 8mo
TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea I'm enjoying it more than I thought. And yes, the author's storytelling is very impressive given the scraps she had to work with! 8mo

Here‘s my review for a book I just finished reading. This is the second book I‘ve read for #awesomeapril. This will also count for #bookspinbingo. This book was picked last month when the numbers were drawn so now, I can cross this one off my #bookspin list and be done with it. It was interesting but I‘m not going to reread it. Reading it once was enough for me.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 8mo

I‘ve made more progress in this book for the #awesomeapril readathon. This will be my second book. I looked in the Kindle book and it says that I have 2 hours and 44 minutes left in the book. This book is very interesting. It doesn‘t feel dry or boring and it‘s not written like a textbook. I feel like this would be a good book for a Women‘s Bible Study group to read but I also think it‘s great to read just for fun which is how I‘m reading it.

Andrew65 Excellent 👏👏👏 8mo

I decided to start this book. This is going to be my second book for the #awesomeapril readathon. This book is interesting so far. This one is also on my #bookspinbingo list this month.

I decided to buy the ebook of this book. I‘ve owned the physical book for a while but I want my Amazon Alexa app to read it to me. It sounds interesting. It‘s on my #bookspinbingo list this month. I‘m not going to read it this month. Hopefully, I‘ll read it next month. It‘s been on multiple #bookspin lists for months. I‘m ready to read it so I don‘t have to keep carrying it over each month. I‘m hoping to read more of my #bookspin books next month.
