Oldies...at least for me

Lately I've read a lot of books which is no surprise of course but I'm on a kick of re-reading books I haven't read in years.

Such books are:

"The Golden Filly Series" by Lauraine Snelling
The Race
Eagle's Wings
Go For the Glory
Kentucky Dreamer
Call for Courage
Shadow Over San Mateo
Out of the Mist
Second Wing
Close Call
Winner's Circle

Comments: I loved this series as a teen and still do even years later except I'm still not happy with the ending of the series, sadly. The books are a quick and easy read but deal with a lot of issues and well, I still need to have Kleenex's nearby.


"Mark of the Lion" Series by Francine Rivers
Voice in the Wind
Echo in the Darkness
As Sure as the Dawn

Overview of Series: This classic series has inspired over half a million readers. Journey back to the crumbling Roman Empire and meet Haddassah, a young slave girl; Marcus, a handsome aristocrat; Atretes, a brave gladiator; and Rizpah, a beautiful young widow. The gospel of Christ is the only weapon they have to battle the immorality that surrounds them –will they be wise enough to use it?

Comments: I'm just into the first book of the series but will be whipping through them pretty quick! Thanks to a church book exchange I was able to get my hands on these books of which I've been wanting to add to my collection for some time.

Speaking of which, time to go read a couple chapters...
