My Fave Reads in April and May

Posted June 3, 2017 by meezcarrie in month in review, monthly faves / 40 Comments


I am in a perpetual state of ‘behind’ lately, it seems, and as such May was over before I had even thought about a “My Fave Reads in April” post. Soooooo… y’all get a bonus today!

    Totally agree with you on A Fragile Hope and True to You. They were both awesome. Many of the rest you listed are in my massive TBR…not even sure what to call it anymore!

    I’m “behind” in everything right now. I loved Susanne’s Dietze’s “My Heart Belong’s in Ruby City”. Of course, Just The Way You Are” is one of my faves. I don’t think Pepper Basham has written a book I didn’t like. I do still need to read The Thorn Healer but I’m pretty sure I’m going to like it 😉
    Other faves were Melissa Jagears “A Love So True”, Seven Brides for Seven Mail-Order Husbands” Barbour collection, Cynthia Roemer’s “Under This Same Sky”, Naomi Rawling’s “Love’s Winter Hope”, “Right Where We Belong” by Raney, Tagg, and Walsh. Oh, and “Alice’s Notions” by Tamera Lynn Kraft, and Angela Couch’s “The Patriot and The Loyalist.”
    I still need to read several of the books on your fave’s list.

    This sounds aweful but I feel like the majority of books I’ve read this year have been “meh”. What’s wrong with me?

    Carrie,you amaze me with all the books you read each month. I love your choice of books.

    Man you read a lot. Was coming out of darkness fictionor non fiction and did you do a post on it that i missed?

  6. I’m perpetually behind as well! My favorite reads for April/May were The One True Love of Alice-Ann by Eva Marie Everson, The Memory of You by Catherine West, and Shelley Shepard Gray’s Her Secret AND His Guilt (an uncorrected proof I was sent – yay for twitter, though now it will seem like an even longer wait until The Amish of Hart County books 3 & 4 come out!). Now I feel I’m slighting the other books I read, all of which I enjoyed…

    I’m planning to read The Evaporation of Sofi Snow, True to You, and Behind the Scenes this month (and hoping to get to more). 🙂

    I’m behinder than you are! I really need to read some of these— as soon as the library gets them! Thanks

    ACK! I never seem to be able to read a new release until much later. The struggle is real!

    A couple of my favorites were (that you have not already mentioned) were “Wings of the Wind” by Connilyn Cossette, “The Feathered Bone” by Julie Cantrell, “A Trail of Crumbs” by Susie Finkbeiner (so glad she will be at the CFRR!)and “The Illusionist’s Apprentice” by Kristy Cambron.

  10. Aw, Carrie! Hugs and more for including WAITING FOR BUTTERFLIES! (Oh, and here’s one more hug!) Looking over your list and reading the others’ made me remember a couple titles I forgot to write down! 🙂 A FRAGILE HOPE was my first Cynthia Ruchti book (and not my last!). THE CON MAN’S DAUGHTER really grabbed me–nonfiction and a little tough at times–but the redemption story…YES! FAITH TRANSPLANTED is a nonfiction story by a friend who underwent a liver transplant. Very well done, but I may be a little biased. 🙂 I am almost finished with TURTLES IN THE ROAD by Rhonda Rhea and Kaley Rhea…a witty and sweet romance.
