The Caregiver at Wounded Knee Book Review
The Caregiver at Wounded Knee was a moving, honest historical story. The author does a fantastic job honoring the tragedy at Wounded Knee. It was an honor to read this book as the anniversary date of the massacre approaches. Amidst the horror of this massacre, caused by misunderstandings and vengeance between the Lakota and settlers, Debby Lee weaves a wonderful, soft love story and themes of healing, forgiveness, and grace. As the light of Christ is a stark contrast to the darkness in the world, it was beautifully shown through this story!
I received a copy from NetGalley to honestly review. All opinions are my own.

The Bird of Bedford Manor Book Review
This was such a unique regency romance! I loved that it was set at a countryside estate and the heroine had a rather unusual “profession.” I loved the strong faith storyline and growth in characters. I did feel like the plot twist ending was not as unique as I hoped for, but it was still a satisfying book!

Light to my Path by Erica Vetsch Book Review
I flew through reading this book! Light to my Path by Erica Vetsch is one of my favorite authors! This book had a unique plot- Sam Mackenzie (brother of David in book one) does a favor to his aunt to watch over Ellie and the orphans she is traveling with. The children were my absolute favorite!! I think Phin has his own book or novella in one of the other books in this series. Vetsch’s plots are always well written, characters are dynamic, and the romance is super sweet and focuses on the friendship. I loved that we go to see Sam’s brother, David and Karen in this book as well. I liked Sam’s character in book one, so it was so fun to see his story!

YA Book Featured Review: The Space Between Our Hearts by Hannah Stone
This is a clean YA story written by a Christian author. (Featured image from author’s website.)
I enjoyed this poignant and sweet YA story! The themes of belonging and definition of true family and friends were super touching. Also loved how the characters learn to handle life when things don’t go according to their plans- something everyone deals with, and this book shows the consequences/blessings that come from it! The characters were so deep and dynamic! I do wish that the theme of finding home and belonging was not so banked on the romantic relationship. I would have loved to see more of that sense of belonging found in the other characters just a little more! I would also have loved to see some biblical faith themes connected to the characters’ struggles. But overall, a lovely YA story that may be extremely relatable to older teens and new adults.

YA Book Featured Review: Celebrities Don’t Date Bookworms by Clara Nielsen
My Review: This book was cute! I loved the quirky characters and fun plot. The themes of belonging and stepping out of your comfort zone were nice, too. I do wish the romantic relationship near the end was a little more realistic in substance, but that’s just my preference. I loved the idea of a popular band coming to a high school and the students reactions to that. It was hilarious! A little cheesy, but in a cute way. There wasn’t a lot about the heroine to convince me she was a true “bookworm” since she only brought up reading once or twice, but that’s okay 🙂
