Top Ten Tuesday - Titles With a Unit of Time in Them

 


Happy Tuesday! Today's topic titles with a unit of time in them. I thought this would be relatively easy, but I had difficulty finding ten of them. There are even a few I haven't read or finished reading.

















Can you think of other books with a unit of time in the title? Let me know in the comments!

Top Ten Tuesday - Inspirational Spooky Reads



Welcome to another edition of Top Ten Tuesday hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. Today's topic is a Halloween Freebie. Normally, when we think of spooky, creepy reads Stephen King comes to mind but there are actually some fabulous spooky, creepy reads in Inspirational fiction.

I read this book in 2009 and it continues to stick with me. Susan Meissner writes a historical time slip novel that is both present day and the 1600's. It gives a huge eye opener to the Salem Witch Trial period.

     














Ted Dekker is known for books that have a supernatural element to them but in this book he teams up with his daughter and the spooky level is heightened.
















This book by Siri Mitchell isn't so much creepy and spooky as it is real. The scary part about this book is how well the truth is perceived as a lie and a lie is perceived as the truth. 
















I haven't read this book yet, but I've been hearing loads about it and the different layers within the story. Especially, the old mansion that is in the story and dreams that become nightmares. 
















Like Ted Dekker, Tosca Lee has a element of supernatural within the story and this book has it in spades. If you haven't read it you definitely need to!

















I just got this book and the back cover copy is beyond freaky but one that is doable. I'm not one that likes to be scared out of my wits but I enjoy the thrill of being scared a little.


















Mike Dellosso has studied Frank Peretti well because this book has the same feel as any of Peretti's books.


















If you need a reason to know why prayer is the biggest weapon we as believer's have you must read this book!



















Not a spooky read in the least but a definite fun one!




















I adore this book! It was a gift to my children and I must of read it hundreds of times to them. The beauty of this book is that it shows God's love for us and the message of salvation.











Even though I haven't read two of the books listed these books are all inspirational and clean.

Now, it's your turn . . . what book's are your Halloween favorites? Tell me in the comments.

My First Reviews


Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is our first reviews. Until I started blogging I didn't write reviews. I'm embarrassed to say that I didn't understand the importance of it. It was fun going back and looking through my first books. There were a few I had forgotten about.

Going back through my blog archives is like visiting old friends.





You have probably heard me talk about The Daughter's of Boston series and how much I love it! This was the first series I reviewed since reading The Love Comes Softly series.

 When I read this book in 2008 it was a little out of my comfort zone. I believe it would now be considered time slip but in '08 I don't believe that was a sub-genre of inspirational fiction.

Another book I completely forgot about. I had to read this during the day only but it was awesome!


















I completely forgot about this series by Camy Tang and I adored it!


Faking Grace by Tamara Leigh got a make-over but I fell in love with it and Tamara Leigh in 2008.









As a huge Tudor era fan I was beyond tickled when this book came out.

I don't read much if any Amish books anymore. I read so many of them early on that I got burnt out, but I really enjoyed this one.






I miss Lisa Samson's writing! She is fun and quirky and her character's are just some of the best. She's designing adult coloring books now which I love as well!

















Since I am currently reading The Heart of a King, the loves of King Solomon by Jill Eileen Smith I had to find my review of Michal, who was the first wife of King David.
















Have you read any of these books? What were the books you first reviewed? Let me know in the comments!
