November 03, 2023 Episode 10: My Most Anticipated Christian Fiction New Book Releases 2020 (part 1)
These are my most anticipated Christian fiction releases of 2020. In this first episode I’m going to talk about the sequels, that is, sequels to books that I have already read or plan to read.
Some of these novels continue the story directly from the first book and some are companion novels.
I won’t go into too much detail in the descriptions in case you haven’t read the previous books.
In part two I’ll cover my most anticipated standalones (and first books in a new series) that are coming out this year.
Which books are you most looking forward to reading next year?
