Thanks to The Broke And The Bookish for hosting Top 10 Tuesday. What a great way to discover new books, authors and the bloggers that love them! This is a Freebie week, so I am highlighting the books my book club is reading this year. We had our 13th anniversary last fall — 13 years and still going strong! This year’s list features some of our favorite authors plus some new ones for us. We love suspense, but branch out to include many other genres in the Christian market. You may notice there are only 8 books on the list. The members let me pick surprise books throughout the year! Do you have any suggestions for me? I’d love to hear them!
Top 8 Book Club Reads of 2016
A House Divided by Robert Whitlow
The Wedding Chapel by Rachel Hauck
Chateau of Secrets by Melanie Dobson
If I Run by Terri Blackstock
My Brother’s Crown by Mindy Starns Clark and Leslie Gould
Midnight on The Mississippi by Mary Ellis
Ties That Bind by Cindy Woodsmall
The Tears of Dark Water by Corban Addison
How neat to have an in-real-life book club! Will have to look up Terri’s. Have you ever read Katherine Reay? Her Dear Mr. Knightly was wonderful. Lizzy and Jane was good but had a couple of elements that I objected to. I’m reading The Bronte Plot now and loving it. Her stories are good plus they’re replete with literary references.
I read Dear Mr. Knightly (and loved it) but haven’t read the other 2 yet. I am actually a member of 2 in-real-life book clubs! One has been meeting since September 2002, the other since September 2012. They are really a lot of fun and I have developed wonderful friendships with the ladies.
Thank you! I needed this today! 🙂
Loved the book. Looking forward to a great discussion! Thanks for stopping by.
The Wedding Chapel will be a great one for your club! It has so many layers and issues that can be discussed. My TTT: https://thegreenmockingbird.wordpress.com/2016/01/26/top-ten-tuesday-top-9-books-or-series-i-wish-someone-would-make-into-a-movieseries
I read it in December and am anxious to hear what the others think. Thanks for stopping by.
The Wedding Chapel was indeed a lovely read. Cannot wait to see what Rachel write’s next. 🙂
I hear there is a Royal Christmas story in the works! 🙂
Excellent selection!! 😀 My TTT

Thanks for the suggestions Rel. I’ve been considering Julie Cantrell’s book – now I know I’ll have to add it to the list. 😀
