It’s the time of year again when we snoop around at what everyone else is reading to make our own winter reading lists. Depending on your tastes, here are a few books I read this year that might be worth checking out:
- What Is a Girl Worth? by Rachael Denhollander
- Embracing the Body by Tara M. Owens
- Made for the Journey (or These Strange Ashes) by Elisabeth Elliot
- All That’s Good by Hannah Anderson
- Beautiful Child by Torey Hayden (I’m hoping to read the rest of this series someday!)
Fiction:
- Marilla of Green Gables by Sarah McCoy
- Yours Cheerfully by A. J. Pearce
- The Screwtape Letters by C. S. Lewis
In the mood for a whodunit?
- The Bess Crawford Mysteries by Charles Todd
- The Secrets of Wishtide and The Case of the Wandering Scholar by Kate Saunders
For light, silly reading (I recommend reading this series in moderation to keep the stories fun rather than monotonous):
- The Jeeves & Wooster series by P. G. Wodehouse
Or how about a children’s chapter book?
- The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street by Karina Yan Glaser
Be sure to send recommendations my way! As you can tell, I love to read. π

Mrs. Porter Calling is better that Yours Cheerfully, in my opinion. π but itβs pretty new, so I had to wait a while before the library lent it. Gonna check some of these out!
I’ll have to put it on my to-read list!
I couldn’t say if it’s better, but I love all three books in the series! So good for relaxing at the end ofβa long day.
