Welcome to Relz Reviewz - Your source for Christian fiction reviews and author interviews

Hello, dear readers…an easy bookish question for you!

Being under the weather for the last couple of days, I’ve been able to get some more reading done than usual and devoured Serena Chase’s soon to be released The Sunken Realm (swoony actionville and fabulously long!), Jessica R. Patch’s Just the Way You Are (super cute, fun, and meaningful), and I’m partway through Lisa Harris’ Vendetta (I’m hooked).

There’s just something fun about sharing with others about what we are reading, so do tell, dear literary lovers…
