Favorite Reads

I absolutely LOVE reading! (One of the reasons I became a teacher is because I want to teach others to love to read as much as I do.) I'm one of those people who can't have a cereal box on the table without reading every single word on it. Yes, even the nutritional facts and those really big words that supposably make up the content. But anyways, I wanted to share some of my favorite books with my readers. here are a few:

Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers

Rivers fictionalizes the Biblical story of Gomer and Hosea in a beautiful story of love that knows no wrongs. It portrays the picture of God's never-ending, non-restrictive, redeeming love. I will be honest and say this isn't a book for the younger readers. I wouldn't recommend it for anyone under 16 just because of some of the heavy material thats in it. It's an easy read, but it can be emotionally hard. It's totally worth the box of tissues!

Danger in the Shadows by Dee Henderson

Henderson writes suspenseful, Christian, love stories. So basically the best books ever! I really enjoy love stories, but sometimes its nice to have twists, turns, and some suspense mixed in. This book is the prequel to the O'Malley series also by Henderson which follow the same suspenseful, Christian, love genre. Danger in the Shadows is personally my favorite, but any book by Dee Henderson is really good!

Karen Kingsbury: Any book written by her is worth the money and the read! She is hands-down my favorite author!  Her characters become my best friends and I seriously find myself praying for these fictional characters. She is an author that requires a box of tissues near because she always tugs at your heart (in a good way). My favorite part about her books is that they always encourage me to deepen my walk with God.




These are my all-time favorite books/authors! I love many other books, but these top them all (except the Bible). If you've read them, let me know what you think about them and if you haven't, you can borrow them or go to the library and check them out.

What books are your favs?
