Faith n Fiction Saturday
It's time once again for Faith n Fiction Saturday and Amy of My Friend Amy has posed the following questions for this week.
This Week's Question:
You have a good friend who is a devoted Christian and voracious reader. He or she, however, tried to read a Christian fiction book in the past and found it to be too preachy and unrealistic. Your friend wants to try it again and has asked you for a recommendation. Their favorite genre of book is what is considered literary fiction. What book would you recommend to them?

One of the writers of Christian fiction that I tend to return to over and over is Frank Peretti. His books have a strong Christian theme without being too preachy, and yet are exciting and fun.

You also have a friend who is not a Christian but wants to read fiction that is considered clean without being too Christian. They have asked you if there are Christian fiction books that might meet their reading needs. They are interested in romance and novels. What book would you recommend to them?

I don't tend to read a lot of Christian romance. What I have read hasn't been the most realistic as far as I was concerned. From the reviews I've been reading I think I'm going to go back and read a few new authors! This isn't technically a romance novel, but any of the Jan Karon Mitford series would be an excellent choice and one that I have recomended many times.
