Favorite Five Episodes-in no particular order
Epi 77 Day Not Promised by Pat Simmons
-This was the right book to start 2023. A Christian Fiction book about when the Lord fights our battles the bad guys don’t always win.
Epi 98 Save Her by Chris Patchell
-This was a novella that pacts a punch with suspenseful high-stakes and anticipation of if any of these characters would survive.
Epi 80 The Butcher’s Daughter by Parker J. Cole
-This book was full of history with issues of race, class, rejection and families in the 1846 even discriminated against their own kind.
Epi 119 All I’ve Wanted All I’ve Needed by A. E Valdez
- This is a contemporary romance book about a woman tired of hoping for a traditional happily ever after. She wants to explore life in a different way to find a love that fully completes her. It was well written with characters you can’t help invest in
Epi 110 Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree
- It shares themes of overcoming and beating the odds, even when Viv wanted to give up the encouragement she receives is remarkable. The characters are wonderful in this book.
I did interview some talented authors but I can’t pick out one or two that were my favorites because I enjoyed speaking with them and learning about their journey’s in becoming writers.
