David C. Cook (September 1, 2009) Garrett pulled me in with her first installment of Chronicles of the Scribe which allows readers a deeper glimpse into the story of Anne Boleyn than history dares to reveal. This second installment certainly lives up to the reputation Garrett is whittling out for herself in the world of [...]

Gallery (April 13, 2010) I’ve always been a bit snobbish about the books I read and what is considered worth my time. Funny though I am also picky about the content in books I read I am finding that mainstream fiction more often lives up to my high standards than the Christian fiction I count [...]

WaterBrook Press (March 16, 2010) I first found Jane Kirkpatrick many years ago when searching the library shelves for historical fiction books about this area of the country that were “safe” reads – meaning minimal or no adult content/violence/etc. Most of them ended up being Christian Fiction as are these books but Kirkpatrick doesn’t scrub [...]
