Great month! We really do have similar tastes-we both read the same book and a ton of the other books you read are on my TBR!
ReplyDeleteHere's my post: http://writingchristiannovels.blogspot.com/2012/10/monthly-reflections-9.html
Thanks, Abbi! I agree - I think we have similar tastes in books, too. :)
DeleteAck! I only finished 6 books in September! No wonder I am behind on my goal of 125 books this year. Must pick up the pace!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm almost finished with A Passion Denied. It is soooo good!
I enjoyed our discussion of Submerged...people need to join us for the next book discussion! :)
Julie @ My Favorite Pastime
Yeah, I'm hoping in December more people will join the discussion. :) Glad you're liking A Passion Denied. :)
DeleteThanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAND I'm soo glad that you're enjoying Julie's books!! Would you consider yourself a fan of hers? ;)(And this goes for the other Julie too-- A.P.D was gooood, huh? =)
Well, *grin* I guess you already know what I'm expecting to pick up today since I'm 50 pages close to the end of what I'm currently reading!
Blessings to you all!
Yes, I would consider myself a fan of Julie Lessman's books. I've loved all three books I've read of hers and am anticipating reading more soon. :)
DeleteGanise, most definitely a Julie Lessman fan!! I've read all of the Daughters of Boston series and all of The Winds of Change series. I'm currently reading A Light in the Window which is the prequel and the story of Marcy and Patrick. Julie Lessman is interviewed on Casey's blog "Writing For Christ" today. Go check it out :)
