Thes best books I read and reviewed in May 2017. This was a good month!

The Long Highway Home by Elizabeth Musser

The Long Highway Home is a unique combination of fact and fiction. Elizabeth Musser draws on her own missionary experiences working with refugees to deliver a story that hits home in terms of the trials refugees find in pursuing safety.

All of You by Sarah Monzon

All of You is book two in Sarah Monzon’s Carrington Family series, following Finders Keepers. I haven’t read the first book, but it didn’t matter—this worked well as a standalone novel. It’s got two spunky heroines (past and present), and a tortured hero. What more do you want in a romance novel?

Broken Like Glass by EJ McCay

A powerful novel of love and redemption. I’ve seen comparisons to The Shack in the way God is mentioned … although I’m apparently one of the few English-speaking Christians on the planet who hasn’t yet read The Shack. A must for those who are looking for Christian fiction that goes beyond the sanitised norm.

A Love So True by Melissa Jagears

 Another novel that goes beyond the sanitised Christian—all the more unusual because this is a historical romance. I find historical romances tend to paint a rosy view of the past, but A Love So True shows a different version of the American west.
