I’m supposed to be editing…

March 12, 2020 By Cara Putman

I’ve got edits back on my next book.

I also have a book releasing in three weeks on April 7th. I’m so excited about Flight Risk! I can’t wait to read your reactions to Savannah and Jett’s story. It was a fun…and challenging…one to write with so many layers. From family friction for Savannah to a plane crash to a race to find truth in a fake news world, there’s a lot happening.

I’ve got classes to move fully online post haste as Purdue prepares for all online after spring break. I’m ready for now, but there’s still a lot to think through so that the courses are intentional, interactive, and worthwhile for my students.

And all I want to do is sit and read this amazing book that I’m at 70% of the way through (thank you, Kindle, for the percentage up dates.)

Can anyone else relate?

Life is filled with things I should be doing. Things I actually like to do. But instead I keep getting pulled back to thist story, and it’s got the pacing to keep me scrolling. I love books like that. I love to read them. And I love to write them…when they’re finished!

If you’re looking for some great books that fill that criteria, then you need to check out the Spring Christian Fiction Scavenger Hunt. This hunt is filled with my favorite Christian fiction authors, and the books on this list that I’ve read are AMAZING. Truly. These books will all fill the need for a book that engages you from the first page with characters and plots that are well crafted.

In addition to the tour giveaways, many of us have bonus ones. I’m giving away Flight Risk and two more of my books, so be sure to pop by my stop and join the fun.
