This book appealed to me instantly. From the very introduction the author present the reasoning behind her book, and the humility that almost prevented her from writing it in the first place. Barbara Curtis’ style is open, warm and engaging and never takes on a holier-than-thou tone. In fact, as she shares her own […]

This haunting and yet uplifting novel is much more than it seems. It spans a period of close to a hundred years, in places including colonial Malta and Edwardian England, and quietly constructs a character driven plot that steadily builds in intensity.

Choosing Joy really surprised me. I didn’t know what to expect reading a book about joy. It was conversational and easy to read. It kept me interested the whole way through with entertaining stories and comments that literally had me “laughing out loud”. Lord had a down to earth approach, he didn’t claim to be

This is one of those books I believe every woman has to read! What I love about this book, is that it questions the very foundations of “feminism” and really shines a light on how secular feminists are doing the very opposite of what feminism claims to do, being pro-women. Alice turns their arguments completely

My Sister’s the Saints as an enjoyable read. Campbell doesn’t hold anything back. Recounting her faith journey from her college years into her career, marriage and family life she accurately records her experiences.
