    Oh, now, see, I like this question much better. These aren’t my favorite of all time but they may be, later, when I look back. My current book, for sure, will be.

    Currently, I am thoroughly enjoying the Michelli Family series by Kristen Heitzmann. The best I’ve read this year, though, is Jesus Calling by Sarah Young. Do Hard Things by Alex and Brett Harris is a close second.

    Didn’t have to think too hard about this one. Have a great Thursday everyone!
