We’re told not to judge a book by its cover, but isn’t that one of the first things to grab our attention? It’s exhilarating to have gorgeous cover art scream, “Pick me! Read me! Love me!” While I initially judge a book by its cover, I know you ultimately want a great read, so I strive to help you past those initial impressions with honest and unbiased reviews.

Another way I do that is through my blog where I have a platform to voice my opinion about the stories I am reading.

LifeofLiterature

My love for books began early- my mother used to joke that I had to get glasses so young because I constantly had my nose pressed against the pages of a fictional world. I have always been attracted to Christian fiction because readers can enjoy clean content without sacrificing quality. I think the best part of getting more involved in the Christian fiction community is connecting with authors and learning more about their passion for writing. I am excited to continue to be able to use my favorite hobby to promote their hard work!
