YOUNG ADULT
Motorcycles, Sushi and One Strange Book by Nancy Rue
I can tell you for sure Nancy Rue’s The Reluctant Prophet is great, because I’ve read it, several times. (I was the editor.) 🙂 In my humble opinion, it’s what Christian fiction should be! Nancy is a fantastic author!
I’m going to jump on reading that one and a couple of others. As a wannabe author I figure I’d better get busy reading what’s currently topping the lists!
Jamie: How is Nancy Rue in the Young Adult catagory?
She actually got her start writing middle grade fiction. She is very at home in the kids division! I’ve only worked on her adult stuff, which is newer.
