It's weird, I've been blogging for so long it's hard to think of new things to put on my blog. I thought for Top Ten Tuesday this week I'd reach back into the archives and list my top ten favorite debuts that I've done over the years.
DRUM ROLL . . . . . .
In no particular order . . .
I remember when I received this book in the mail it was in manuscript form and I emailed Bonnie Calhoun who owned Christian Fiction Blog Alliance at the time so worried that someone made a mistake and I wasn't supposed to receive the book in that format. Thinking about it now still makes me giggle.

Julie, Julie, Julie! I received this book when I began my going through my divorce. This book showed me that I could be pure whether I got married or not. It also showed me how inspirational fiction can minister to a hurting heart.

This book introduced me to a great author who I am blessed to still read her books today.

Tender Grace hit really close to home for me. I was blogging with Christian Fiction Blog Alliance at the time and my review won the monthly award.

Laura has become a true favorite author and a dear friend. I love her historical romances and this one is a favorite.

Jill's books introduced me to biblical fiction and I've been a huge fan ever since. While I have loved every book that she has written, her Wives of King David have to be my all time favorites.

When I started reading Christian fiction as an adult the first books I read were Frank Peretti's This Present Darkness and Piercing the Darkness. I found James to be a lot like him in that regard. I have read everything to date and they just get better!

Being a Navy brat, Ronie and I have something in common, and this book was so militarily intriguing that I was sucked into the series and have enjoyed her books since.

Kellie is from Idaho, and I didn't know that until I was asked to review this book. This book just wrenched my heart. I was thrilled when I was able to meet Kellie at a book signing here in Idaho and have her autograph my copy. Since then I've met her again and all of my books of hers are signed.
Here I am with Kellie, at Barnes and Noble in Boise this last summer launching her latest, at the time, book What Matter's Most. Her new book Sisters (Sun Valley Series BK1) has just released.
Hope you enjoyed my look back in time, and that you found a new book or two to read.
Happy Tuesday, and as always mark your place and keep reading!
