Ascendant by Kimberly Grey {Book Review}

Hey Gems!!! Today I have a book review for you all! I was contacted by the author, Kimberly Grey , and asked if I could review this book and of course I agreed. I knew it was a YA Christian fantasy about angels and I was immediately down for it: YA Christian fantasy with guardian angels, found family, revenge, and forgiveness. Let me just say, this novel rocks! It takes the whole concept of black being evil and white being good and flips it on it's head. Ascendant is the first book in the trilogy which will include Remnant ( book two ), Covenant ( book three ) and the prequel Revenant. Keep reading to check out my thoughts!!

The Delilah Box

Hey Gems!!! I've been asked many times about Christian book subscription boxes so I did some research. I contacted a few companies to try and collab with them. Today I'll be sharing the box from The Delilah Box subscription company! This is a new to me company which I was excited about once I looked around the website and Instagram page. About the Company The Delilah Box is designed for those of us who wish to learn about the lesser known, lesser liked and sometimes more relatable women of the bible. As women of faith, we all strive to be Mary's; yet truth be told, there are definitely days we feel more like Delilah. We fall from grace, we make mistakes, love hard, love wrong and carry on. The Delilah Box's goal is to create a community of spiritual women who appreciate and learn from all the women of Christ's time...even the Jezebels. What to Expect Each month is centered around a different gal & includes items relating to our theme. Expect to

Faith Reads Read-a-thon TBR

Hey Gems!!! Happy New Year Ladies ( and Gents if you're reading )!!!! 2020 is HERE!!! Today we are talking all about the Faith Reads read-a-thon for this month! I am so excited about this read-a-thon with you ladies!!! This post is on my TBR picks for the prompts. Check out my IG to see my photos for the photo challenges. Now let's get into my book picks for each prompt! 1) Read a book based on a well-known biblical person.             ♥ Iscariot by Tosca Lee . I'm going with this book because we all know who Judas is -- the betrayer of Jesus. I want to read about him to make him seem more human than I believe he is. Both Judas and Peter were sifted by the enemy. Peter however didn't fall, but Judas did and Jesus knew it. I'm interested in seeing if this can "redeem" Judas in my eyes. Hardcover | Paperback | Kindle | Audible 2) Read a book based on a lesser-known biblical person.             ♥ Zipporah, Wife of Moses by Marek Halter
