Favorite Reads

March 12, 2025 By Dani Pettrey

There are a plethora of books out there. Sometimes it’s tough to know where to begin and which books to choose. As a writer, my time for reading is limited. I don’t read fiction while I write. It’s a weird quirk but I’m terrified of osmosis. So, when I wrap up a book, I go on a reading binge. Choosing the best books to read during that time can be overwhelming. There are so many wonderful books and authors out there. So how do I choose? I go to writer and reader recommendations so today I’m going to share those recommendations with you in case you’re looking for a good read. 

“Gabrielle Meyer’s Timeline series is so unique. It has multiple timelines but they’re not really time travel, so I like that. The same characters live in two distinct timelines.”

~ Author Kelly Goshorn 

Kate Landry Has a Plan by Rebekah Millet. “Rebekah does an amazing job of balancing humor, romance, and faith all with a fantastic setting in New Orleans! 

~Reader extraordinaire Crissy L. 

“My all-time favorite book is The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah. I love WWII books and this one kept me glued to my couch while I devoured it. It had twists I didn’t expect.” 

~Professional Reader Joy T. 

“I’m reading Lynn Blackburn’s Break My Fall. This new series centers on three cousins who live in tiny houses on family land in a town divided by a family feud. It’s terribly clever and has great world-building. I hope you enjoy it too.” 

~Writer, Reviewer, and Speaker Debb Hackett 


Hope you’ll enjoy these books! I got so many wonderful recommendations; I’m going to share more next post. I’d love to know what book you’re reading and what you love about it or what your favorite book is and why it’s your favorite. 

Hope you have a blessed day! 

~Dani

    I just finished “Never Fall Again” and looking forward to the next one. I am reading “Rescue Me” #2 in Montana Rescue by Susan May Warren. Next will be “One Wrong Move” which I will be ready for “Two Seconds too Late”. At present, my reading will be somewhat slowed due to cataract surgery but when both eyes are done and healed I will go on a reading binge.

    I love the Timeless series so much! The Nightingale, too. I’ll have to add the others to my wish list.

      Oh, D’Ann – have you read The Great Alone? I just finished that one… and like The Nightingale, I couldn’t put it down…

    I love Gabrielle Meyer’s series, too! I read Whose Waves These Are by Amanda Dykes last year, and it became one of my all-time favorite novels. So I started reading the rest of Amanda’s books. I’m currently reading her novel set partly in Venice, All the Lost Places.

    I can’t wait to see what your next post has! I’ve read Gabrielle Meyer’s series and I absolutely adore Rebekah Millet’s books – her humor tickles me! I’m waiting to binge read Lynn Blackburn’s series – I’ve been preordering them as they release.
