What is with all of these challenges I’m joining lately? Here’s one you may not have been expecting: the Christy Awards Challenge. The Christy awards were created to acknowledge excellence in a variety of genres of Christian fiction. If you’re thinking, “hey, you don’t really review much Christian fiction here,” you’re correct, but this challenge is being hosted by Deborah and Amy, so I just couldn’t resist!
In the spirit of setting attainable goals, I am joining this challenge in the ‘baby steps’ division, Tier 1: 2009 Favorite Category Read All Nominated Books 3-4 books
I will be reading books from the Historical category. There are three books in this category and they are:
- Washington’s Lady by Nancy Moser
- Shadow of Colossus by TL Higgley
- Until We Reach Home by Lynn Austin (WINNER)
I chose this category for two reasons. First, I like historical novels. Second, I own but have not read Shadow of Colossus and have already read and reviewed Washington’s Lady, and Deborah assures me that it is okay that I already read one of the books.
I still need to figure out what I’m doing for this challenge. I want to sign up but I’m having issues making any decisions!
THanks for signing up! I’ve heard nothing but good things about all of these books so I hope you enjoy. Christian fiction=better than most people think.
Good luck!
I’ve been eyeing this challenge as well but haven’t yet committed to it. I did get one of the books from the list so maybe I will and see what happens.
I love Nancy Moser and look forward to reading this one. I also look forward to the Lynn Austin book. Tracy Higley is great!
