Book Review: A Christmas Carol Devotional by Rachel Dodge
It’s hard to believe that Christmas is right around the corner. Although I’m not one to start counting down the days as soon as July hits, I do start to think about what Christmas gifts I want to buy for people. This book caught my eye for a friend who loves A Christmas Carol. As a…

Top 5: Favorite Nonfiction Reads of 2026 (so far)
At the beginning of the year, I promised myself I would get back into reading nonfiction regularly… I did well at the beginning of the year, but as I’ve been prioritizing my physical TBR, my digital library has been neglected.

Book Review: Catholics vs. Protestants by Andrew Goliszek
First and foremost, I want to address the title. While surely members on both sides of this conversation may see ‘VS’ and be inclined to get defensive (as I did myself, admittedly), that’s when I realized that I needed to read this book.

Book Review: Singing Through Fire by Lara Silverman
My heart has been filled with so many emotions by this memoir. Lara Silverman takes the reader on a raw and heartfelt journey through not only her own health crisis, but that of her husband, Matthew Silverman. It’s not the typical love story you tend to come across in books, which for me, made it…
