The Secret Holocaust Diaries by Nonna Bannister – My Review
Tyndale House (March 4, 2010) I started this book last night and read it’s entirety in less than 2 evenings. While this was a difficult read because of some of the content, it still read relatively quickly. Nonna did not […]

Revell (March 1, 2010) Revell has once again delivered an author I can’t put down. I spent two evenings with my face buried in Sundin’s debut historical. Not only did this author confirm my trust in those at Baker’s imprints […]
