Fiction:
- Constable in the Dale by Nicholas Rhea - I am still reading through this series and finding them thoroughly enjoyable.
- Constable by the Sea by Nicholas Rhea
- Constable Along the Lane by Nicholas Rhea
- Constable Through the Meadow by Nicholas Rhea
- Constable in Disguise by Nicholas Rhea
- Death on the Nile by Agatha Christie (audio) I listened to this for The Literary Life Podcast. This is my second time to read this and at first thought I'd just listen to the podcast, but I'm glad that I did read it again since I forgot big chunks of it.
- A Final Storm: A Novel of the War in the Pacific by Jeff Shaara (read-aloud) - I've been reading through Jeff Shaara's series with my son for part of an in-depth World War II study. Jeff Shaara writes very compelling fiction which we have enjoyed thoroughly.
- Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier - What a read! I read this for The Literary Life Podcast and finished it early since once I got to a certain point I had to finish it. Highly recommended!
- The Secret of the Chimneys by Agatha Christie (audio) - This book caught my eye last year and I decided to give it a listen. It is part of the Superintendent Battle Series. When the book was finished I felt like I had read it before, but when I looked in my Goodreads I didn't have a record of it. So I guess I'll never know!
- Seven-Day Magic by Edward Eager (read-aloud) - This is the conclusion of the Tales of Magic Series. My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed this series. I was glad to revisit this series.
- The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion #1 by Beth Brower - I saw this book (actually novellas) recommended and it was available on Kindle Unlimited so I gave it a go. This is written in journal format and cover just a few months at a time. I devoured all four books in the series and I enjoyed them so much that I ordered them in paperbacks. They are very clever and extremely funny! Just what I needed when we lost our internet for a week after surviving an ice storm.
- The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion #2 by Beth Brower
- The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion #3 by Beth Brower
- The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion #4 by Beth Brower
- The Well-Wishers by Edward Eager (read-aloud) - The sixth book in the Tales of Magic series. I read some of them aloud to my older kids, but this is the first time I read the whole series out loud.
Non-fiction:
- 84 Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff (audio) - This is a re-read that I read for The Literary Life Podcast. I loved Hanff's books when I first discovered them years ago, but honestly, the audio book was sheer perfection. I highly recommend this in audio!
- Realign: God-Called Leaders Connecting with Their Purpose by Eugene T. Wilson - This is a book that I read for some classes my husband and I oversee. I had high hopes for it but was disappointed since there were so many ideas that came from other book that it seemed like a book of compilations. A book list might have sufficed better.
