Reader's Choice -- Amish Fiction

GIVEAWAY

IMPORTANT EDIT:
 Due to an ongoing problem with issues posting comments on blogger using iPhones or Macs, I'm opening up all the Reader's Choice Week giveaways to email entries as well. BUT PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, if you can post in the comments do, it's much less work for me and so much more fun for everyone to see what other readers are looking forward to in new releases. Plus we all need the info so that we can add titles to our TBR lists!!! (so just ignore the bit in the rules area about not being open to email entries) Oh -- and please put in your subject line: the genre, so today would be Amish Fiction, and then in the body of the email put in all three of your choices.


Eeeepppp! The snow might not be melting but the calendar says it's Spring and that means it's time for... 

Reader's Choice Giveaway
Spring into Books Edition

So, here's how this thing works: You recommend CHRISTIAN FICTION titles with release dates in April, May or June 2022 (up to three suggestions per genre day) and you have a chance to win one of your recommendations! BUT it's a little more complicated than that so be sure to read ALL the details before entering.

IT'S AMISH FICTION
GIVEAWAY DAY!

To be entered in the draw just leave a comment (or 3) below, including the title(s) of the book(s) in the Amish Fiction genre you would like to win.

Amish Fiction -- a full length story or novella or collection of novellas where the hero or heroine (or both) are Amish OR the story has significant Amish involvement through Amish secondary characters and an Amish community. Can be historical or contemporary and cross genres such as YA, Suspense, etc and may include dual timelines.

How does it work?

Easy peasy! Make recommendations in the comment section and if you win, you win the book you suggested.

BUT YOU GOTTA FOLLOW THE RULES!

Publication dates must be
APRIL, MAY OR JUNE 2022
Each day is genre specific so
only submit books from that genre
Christian Fiction books only please!
You can offer up to three suggestions
per genre day
BUT
they need to be made in
three separate comments
(makes it easier to tally)
No email entries this week
(too hard to keep track of 
due to # of responses)
entrants must submit their own selections
(no piggyback on someone else's log in)
Open to International Readers
(I'm all about spreading the good news
about Christian Fiction far and wide)

It's helpful to include your email (using AT and DOT instead of @ and . to protect yourself from spammers) but you only need to add it to one of your comments per day. If you choose not to include your email, then it's up to you to contact me if you are a winner.

Draw will be held and winner announced on 
Saturday April 2 2022

    1. Funny, how genre release dates seem to clump together. Perhaps summer is the Amish season?

      Heads up about your second choice -- Courting Cableb by Kelley Long -- I'm leaving it in the giveaway since it's on Christian books but it's a secular romance published by Zebra. Her earlier books were clean Christian Romances but then she switched to a difference publisher with her Ice Mountain series and the romance is , well, some reviewers are calling it 'smutty Amish' romance. I have only read the first Ice Mountain book and I felt like it crossed the line for me from romantic tension to more explicit. Still tame by general market standards but very heavy on the passion. I haven't read her since but have read some reviews of the first book in this series and a few early reviews for this one and some of them mention the not so clean content. So, be forewarned and if you want to change this one out, feel free to do so.

      Good luck, Lucy!

  29. Dead Set (Agatha's Amish B&B #3) by Vannetta Chapman. I read & reviewed books 1 & 2 in this series and enjoyed. Haven't had the chance at DEAD SET yet. My cleaning lady loves these books, too, and I'd love to share with her.

    Any of Vannetta's books!

    1. This giveaway is for books published in April, May or June 2022 -- so this doesn't fit that criteria. I have heard great things about this series though. Must get on it!
