What’s On Your Nightstand: May

What's On Your NightstandThe folks at 5 Minutes For Books host What’s On Your Nightstand? the fourth Tuesday of each month in which we can share about the books we have been reading and/or plan to read. You can learn more about it by clicking the link or the button.

It’s been a busy month, but I’ve been able to get some good reading in.

Since last time I finished:

A Novel Idea: Everything You Need to Know about Writing Inspirational Fiction, reviewed here. Probably a must-read if you’re thinking of writing Christian fiction.

Women’s Ministry in the Local Church by Ligon Duncan and Susan Hunt. Hope to have a review up soon.

Leaving by Karen Kingsbury, first in a new series with Bailey Flanigan from previous series.

Love Finds You in Camelot, Tennessee by Janice Hanna, a fun romantic comedy but with some depth as well, reviewed here with Leaving.

Words by Ginny Yttrup, destined to be one of my top ten books of the year, I believe, reviewed here.

Lady in Waiting by Susan Meissner, reviewed here. Just finished this one yesterday and hope to review it soon. Loved it.

Currently reading:

The Deepest Waters by Dan Walsh.

Up next:

The Judgment by Beverly Lewis, second in The Rose Trilogy.

Mine Is the Night by Liz Curtis Higgs.

The Judgment is the last of my Spring Reading Thing list unless I want to add more of the non-fiction I was considering. But I have a whole list of recommended books to choose from as well.

  1. So it looks like I should add “Words” to my reading list. I’m looking forward to your review of “Women’s Ministry”.

    Congrats on finishing your Spring Reading Thing list! I have one more to go, but keep adding in extra here and there. 😉

  2. Words sounds like a great book but I’m not sure I could handle the subject matter. Hmmm… Will have to ponder that possibility. 🙂

    Happy reading in June!

  3. I, too, am looking forward to your thoughts on Women’s Ministry in the Local Church. And I want to read Words based on your review. And that book you’re going to write based on all you’ve learned from A Novel Idea

    🙂

  4. A few familiar authors on your list but new ones too! I’ve seen Words reviewed one other time and both that one and yours make it sound worth reading despite the hard subject matter. Thank you for stopping by my Nightstand! Enjoy your month of reading!

  5. Sounds like some great books! I didn’t realize Karen Kingsbury had started another series – that should be fun for the summer. 🙂

  6. I’ve heard Meissner’s name a lot lately – probably time for me to read something she’s written. Love Finds You … must be a series? I’ve heard about those as well. You read a lot, and I enjoyed reading about your list!
