For those of you who don’t know, or haven’t heard yet, the INSPY longlist has released. Congratulations to every amazing author who made the longlist!!! Man, do we have some seriously talented writers in today’s Christian Fiction market.
One of my favorite bloggers, JenGalaxy4 Christian Book Reviews, posted a fun blog yesterday where she shares the INSPY books she read in 2018. I loved the idea so much, I’m copying her! Thanks, Jen, for the inspiration. 😃😃😃
What follows are the books from the INSPY 2018 longlist that I read and loved. Just click on a link and you can read a brief summary and my thoughts on each book listed.
Contemporary Romance/Romantic Suspense
Debut Fiction
General Fiction
Historical Fiction
- Thief of Corinth
- Sons of Blackbird Mountain
- A Refuge Assured
- A Defense of Honor
- Romancing the Bride
- The Making of Mrs. Hale
- Miss Serena’s Secret

According to the information on INSPY’s website, the shortlist will be available by the end of April. Definitely good luck to all the authors. You are all clearly using the amazing talents God has given you to put forth His Word in unique ways. I’m glad I don’t have to decide the shortlist. It’s too hard! LOL!

I am not affiliated with INSPY. I was not asked to write this post. Again, I just liked Jen’s idea, and I, too, love to share well-written, amazing books by Christian authors.
