Best Books of Winter 2019

I thought it would be fun at the start of a new season to take a moment and reflect on some of my favorite reads from the past few months. It's already warming up here in sunny Florida, and we just had spring break this past week. Spring is a busy season for my family, but I'm still hoping to get some reading in. Here are some of the books that made an impact on me this past winter.

The Curse of Misty Wayfair

The Dreamers

Where the Crawdads Sing

The Wartime Sisters

The Lost Girls of Paris


Did you read any great books this winter? Let me know in the comments. Also, check out my January and February wrap ups for my thoughts on these books.

Update Please!

I'm linking up with That Artsy Reader Girl to share this week's top ten list.

For what ever reason, I tend to be drawn to stand alone novels. I think I just get board with the same story drawn out over a long period of time. I would, however, like to know what is going on in the lives of some of my favorite characters after the story ends. maybe it's the mom in me. I just need to know every one is okay. Here are some of the stand alone novels I would like to be updated on.

Wonderland CreekWhile We're Far ApartAfloat

Until We Reach HomeStill Life

Beyond All DreamsThe Lady and the LionheartEgypt's Sister: A Novel of Cleopatra (The Silent Years, #1)

Obviously, Lynn Austin needs to write some sequels. What books do you think need sequels? Let me know in the comments.

Top Ten Tuesday ~ Characters I Would Trade Places With

I'm linking up with That Artsy Reader Girl to share this week's top ten list.

I love my life. It's quiet and peaceful. That's how I like it. I don't like adventure. That's why I read. Here are a few characters that were thrust into adventures against their will or better judgement. I don't think I would trade places with them, but I sure did enjoy the ride.

The Line Between

The Choosing (Seer, #1)

The Horse and His Boy (Chronicles of Narnia, #5)

The Restorer (The Sword of Lyric, #1)

Afton of Margate Castle  (Theyn Chronicles, #1)

The Mark of the King

Where We Belong

Saving Amelie

The Curse of Misty Wayfair

Mark of the Raven (The Ravenwood Saga, #1)
