KindleUnlimited or Scribd – Which is Better for Christian Fiction Fans?
It’s no secret that I love to read.

I’m sure that’s not an exhaustive list, but those were the main sources. Since that time, books are more widely obtainable, and I’ve since discovered two monthly subscriptions that make even more books available to me.

Top Ten Tuesday #1 – Book Covers with Fall Colors/Vibes
It is so wonderful to be back in the book blogging world, and I didn’t realize how much I missed out on fun weekly posts such as Top Ten Tuesday. Book blogging is not all book reviews all the time (although, that’s one of my favorite parts of it). It’s great to get to take a minute to drool over book covers, chat over interesting characters, and meet other readers that have things in common with you. I have been going through my shelves in the past couple of weeks, hunting for book covers that have a fall theme. Even though I have been away from reading for a LONG…
