Faith 'n Fiction Saturday

My Friend Amy says this: I always think there's a lack of books that are genuinely funny, that make me laugh through the book. It's probably why I so enjoy chick lit. But Christian chick lit lacks that light natural feeling humor and so there aren't many books (apart from Josey and Theodora!) that make me laugh. My Friend Amy asks: Are there some good Christian fiction books that made you laugh out loud and just feel really good about life?

Faith 'n Fiction Saturday

My Friend Amy asks: What's your favorite Christian fiction book so far this year? My response: Well seeing as Christian fiction is pretty much all I read, I have a lot of favorites but so far this year my favorite has to be A Passion Denied by Julie Lessman ( my review ). I really enjoyed her entire Daughters of Boston series. They are very entertaining with good faith messages as well as TONS of romance and drama! Lizzie was one of my favorite characters (probably because she reminded me of myself a bit) and Brady was one of my favorite heroes...there's nothing like the strong, silent, type to grab a readers attention! I'm really looking forward to reading what Julie writes about next. Please stop by My Friend Amy's blog to see her favorite book as well as other bloggers favorites today!
