This is the most color my blog will probably ever see! This prompt from A RAD Reading Challenge is a fun one — picking a book with a cover in your favorite color. Hopefully the books below will get you inspired to grab a colorful book, whether one of these (all ones I’ve read!) or one that just catches your eye from the shelf.
Read MoreColleen Hoover was one of my favorite discoveries of 2019. For some reason, I had never heard of her, and when I first saw the cover of November 9, I thought it was a thriller (???) so I just was totally off base with her and her work!
Read MorePhew, the year ended in a bit of a frenzy, with lots of Christmas craziness (did you know it’s SO FUN and SO MUCH WORK to be on staff at a church in December?!?!??) and lots of great, fun books.
Read MoreWhat a year it’s been. Seriously — it was a major one in my life, with so many big events (a new job! a big break up! a new car! EMDR therapy!) and lots of great books (more than 175!!!) and so many other wonderful and hard and emotional things in between.
Read MoreMy prayer is that these books would be resources to aid those in their own journeys, whatever they might look like. For anyone who has gone through abuse of any kind, know that you are deeply loved, that you are not alone, and that God is with you, making all things new.

Read MoreI rounded up 12 of the very best books I read this year. Don’t you dare ask me which one is my favorite! Don’t even ask me to rank them in order! It was hard enough to narrow the list down to 12 when I had more than 20 that got 5-star ratings from me.
Read MoreYou know those months where you just want to read books that feel good? That was me this November. Romances + mysteries + a few non-fiction reads to inspire and motivate, and I was a happy little reader this month!

Read MoreOctober, I love you so much. Thank you for bringing fall leaves and fall weather (FINALLY) and the end of spooky season. Thanks for all the books and for new mystery series and for really good YA reads. You’re my favorite.

Read MoreIt’s such a sweet time of the year, and these books (for some reason or another) bring to mind those autumnal feelings for me! They’d make for great reading over the next few months and I’ve personally loved each one.

Read MoreWhile I obviously can’t recommend a book for each and every one of you for the year you were born, I thought it would be fun to look back at the 1990s (the decade I was born in!) and the 80s (just for fun!) to highlight a few books that have stood the test of time!
Read MoreAttending the Evolving Faith Conference this year? Want to read all the books by the amazing lineup of speakers? I’ve rounded them all up here! If you aren’t attending but want to read great, diverse, life-changing books on faith from brilliant minds, look no further!

It’s not at all an exact science, but more a loose guide to what’s making the rounds, topping the charts, and getting buzz around the bookish world so far this year— hope you find some gems on this list to read and enjoy!
