Ten, really? Only ten best books of 2016? This has been a banner year for good books. I’m not sure if I am being more selective or if we are in the golden age of Christian Fiction, but I have read so many wonderful books this year. While these books are from varying genres — history, romance, mystery, literary and women’s fiction, they share a common characteristic — great writing!  So here are 13, a Baker’s Dozen, of novels I have savored.

    Thanks for introducing me to Angela Correll through your list – her novels sound very interesting.

      This book is actually her second novel. You may want to start with book 1 in the series. I didn’t have any trouble jumping into book 2, but you may want to start from the beginning. Thanks for commenting!!

      I know! I felt the same when looking at your list. What’s one or two more when you have 20 to read. And by the way, what are you doing on the inter webs!! 😉
