I've not read as many books this year as I'd like and my reading has been more fiction. Some standouts this year include "Fairy Tale" by Stephen King. The language is tough, but the story is gripping. I've read a couple of more books by Louise Penny, the latest being "A Fatal Grace". These are cozy mysteries set in a village in Canada. I say "cozy", but how cozy can murder really be? I love escaping into fantasy stories and Kate Forsyth has a series I really love about a world that mirrors the Scottish highlands that follows a coven of witches and their struggle to reclaim their country.
I'm adding some of your recommendations to my list. I read some of the Sue Grafton books when I was in college and enjoyed them. Maybe it's time I revisit her works. Thanks for the post. I always enjoy reading your thoughts.
I love Sue Grafton novels. I am sad she passed before z. I have been reading books suggested by P. Mead and B. Valentine-- let’s see--where is God when it hurts and disappointment with Gos by Yancy. The Bible and the ballot box by Tremper longman 3, God at War by Boyd, embracing creation by hicks and Valentine. I also read the in death series from JD Robb (Nora Robert’s). Probably my biggest acquisition of knowledge this year is either OSHC lessons and tons and tons of podcasts.
I will most likely look for some of your suggestions. Which one do you think is the best?
Second half of reading in2022--Beth Allison Barr the making. Of biblical womanhood, Katelyn Beaty Celebrities for Jesus--truly enlightening. Kristen Kobe’s DuMez--Jesus and John Wayne. Diane Langeberg Suffering and the heart of God. Inspired by Rachel Held Evans and the light we carry by Michelle Obama. What happened to you? Oprah Winfrey last but not least I just started church called tov by Scott McKnight and Laura Barringer.
