Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

The storyline is very adventurous, action-packed, creative, and entertaining. The addition of the vintage photographs is a unique element.

A Lineage of Grace

Obviously she took some liberties to flesh out the stories as we are not told in the Bible the thoughts and motives and details of these accounts, but the way she writes makes you really see the other side and perspectives of the 'well-known' passages.

Taken

Firstly, you won’t find Liam Neeson in this book. Or any special sets of skills for that matter.

Pray for Silence

I wish I had never started this book.

Just Do Something

“The only chains God wants us to wear are the chains of righteousness—not the chains of hopeless subjectivism, not the shackles of risk-free living, not the fetters of horoscope decision making— just the chains befitting a bond servant of Christ Jesus. Die to self. Live for Christ. And then do what you want, and go where you want, for God’s glory.”

Once We Were Brothers

The main character, Elliot, in present day, recognizes who he thinks to be Otto (though now with a different name), a boy raised by Elliot’s family/turned Nazi officer and accuses him of his past crimes, including stealing his family’s wealth.

Chaos Walking

This series is one where you become very invested in the story. It’s one I hated and I loved.

Rogue Lawyer

Unlike most of his novels, a lot of the book did not happen inside the courtroom. I like the law drama and questioning and seeing a case come together, so this book was not my favorite of his.

What’s Best Next

Basically to sum it up: Do the best work you can do, do all the good you can do (all work you do are good works), schedule things that matter, and know that your hope is in Christ.

Bridge to Haven

This was a jarring picture depicting our rebellion against God's desire to have a relationship with him.

Sailing Between the Stars

I am a lover of words and was very engaged in his writing style and his 'musings'. I also love to write and this book inspired me to pick up the pen again.

The Ice Twins

Good and mysterious book! Keeps you guessing.

I Was Here

Without giving too much away, I think my biggest thing with this book was the lack of hope.
