So, what do you think? Which one should I read next? Do you have any favorite authors in this list? If so, why? And which books have you read by that author?
Wow! I haven't posted anything for more than a week! But it couldn't be helped, as I needed to study for my upcoming exams. Now I've taken them all and I am officially graduated from high school! Pretty cool, huh? Anyway, while I was studying, the books that needed reading and reviewing began to pile up. Below is a list of some of them. It's difficult to choose which one to read first. Which ones have you read? Are there any favorite authors in the list below? Never read anything by Irene Hannon, so I think it's about time. Hope I like this one! Oooooohh my goodness! I love Anne Elisabeth's books! I cannot wait to read this one! The cover is gorgeous! I've been waiting to read this one so that I could read it all at once without any interruptions. Anybody ever read The Balcony? Probably not, as it was published the year I was born and is more than likely out of print now. But it's one of the only books Lynn ever wrote without her father. I also read The Balcony four or five times. Can't wait to read The Baron's Honourable Daughter!! Never read Dani Pettrey. But I've heard so many good things about her I thought I would. It looks like a different type of book than I would read, but I think I'm going to like it. Kind of like Rebellious Heart by Jody Hedlund, hm? But the plot looked interesting and I've only ever read one small novella by Ruth Axtell so I thought I would give her a chance. Besides...the title is usually what the publisher wants. I just thought this looked super cute! It reminded me of Howl's Moving Castle (if anybody's ever watched that). The cover is also really unique. I wasn't too impressed with Becky Wade's debut novel, but I thought I would give her one more chance as this book has such a pretty cover and title. Author's have changed my mind before, so maybe she will be able to change it...
So, what do you think? Which one should I read next? Do you have any favorite authors in this list? If so, why? And which books have you read by that author?

SILENCED! I would start reading this book RIGHT NOW if I didn't have other books I needed to read first! I can't WAIT to delve into it!

I agree with Shannah... I'd definitely pick "Silenced" by Dani Pettrey! She's my favorite author from your list above (one of my top 5 favorites actually), though Irene Hannon & Lynn Morris are both good too.

Thank you for commenting, Carol! I was thinking maybe The Hatmaker's Heart too. But so many people have liked Silenced that I might choose to read that one next as well.

Congratulations Brooke! I'm actually taking my test to graduate today (I'm on break while another student finishes)! Only one more day and I'm done (hopefully)!

I think Meant to be Mine's cover is my favorite out of this list. The angle the picture was taken is very unique. The description looks interesting as well. Congratulations on being nearly done with school!

Congrats on your HS graduation! It's been almost 25 years since mine and I still remember the relief of shaking the dust of high school off my feet. I'm sure you had a better HS experience though :) I'm currently reading A Heart's Rebellion and although it isn't absolutely necessary, I'd recommend you read the first in the series, Moonlight Masquerade. I'd read Meant to be Mine or Silenced. Although I haven't read them, I've read only excellent reviews of them. Happy reading!

I think I might go with Silenced next since everybody who I know who has read it has loved it. I'm not very much familiar with Ruth Axtell, though her books look good. Thank you for commenting!
