The Bride of Blackfriars Lane

By Michelle Griep

MY REVIEW

4.5 stars
Delightful and fun with so much wit…the characters are fantastic, and the story never stops. It’s such an incredibly fun novel from beginning to end.

This is the second book in a series of two, and I was thrilled when I found out a sequel to the first was releasing. Many books written in England are written about the elite and wealthy. This is a totally different kind of read, and probably far more realistic for most that lived during that time.

The characters are terrific, the mystery well written, the faith theme so very good and intrinsic to the tale, and the storyline is incredible. There is so much to like about this story.

I received this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own..

Lost in Darkness

MY REVIEW

I have given very few five stars this year. I guess I am being stingy. My daughter told me that as much as I had discussed this book, its characters, and it’s depth that I should give it five…so I did. It has a fascinating plot and storyline, many interesting historical facts, intriguing characters, and such a wonderful faith theme!! These are what I love best in a well told story. This has a good and well written romance story as well, though that is not necessary for me to fall in love with a novel. 

I find it very interesting because this is really like no other book I have ever read. It was not at all predictable either which is SO nice. So many of the Inspirational fiction I have read lately has been shallow. Griep keeps to her style in writing a story that has depth and intrigue.

I thoroughly enjoyed the historical details given after the novel as well. I finished this book within 24 hours, and I have an extra copy of this one. I can highly recommend this read so I am looking forward to passing on to a friend.

The Thief of Blackfriars Lane

Michelle Griep


With a bit of the feel of a classic book based on the streets of London, a Robin Hood type woman who is definitely a force all her own joins forces with a policeman who seems to be her opposite. The banter in the story makes it fun. There is a host of interesting characters that gives you all the feeling of a big city and it’s underground, behind the scenes, in the darkness intrigue.

Michelle Griep weaves an interesting tale that takes you on a journey of the streets of London to meet fascinating characters and join a mystery plot with interesting twists and turns.

MY THOUGHTS

Another fantastic novel by this author! 

I really enjoyed this book…one of the best parts is that it is so different from the other reads I’ve had of late. The suspense and mystery is well done with several twists and turns. The plot and storyline keep the reader turning the pages.

I also really liked the characters. Part of it is light hearted and funny…the Michelle Griep that you see in Out of the Frying Pan comes out in this read to make some wonderfully fun moments. There is also a lot of sadness and reality in this read as well. The characters aren’t perfect…but so perfectly written.

This book also puts forth a strong and wonderful faith message which is lacking in much of Christian Fiction. I thoroughly enjoyed it in this read, and it is well woven into the storyline and characters.

This is a terrific story…one which has a spot on my forever shelves!

Once Upon a Dicken’s Christmas

by Michelle Griep

REVIEW OF FIRST NOVELLA- 12 DAYS OF BLEAKLY MANOR

This is a short quick novella. I rarely thoroughly enjoy novellas as I did this one! There is so much mystery, suspense , intrigue, and romance packed into the pages of this enjoyable read. I’ve had it for a while, but I wanted to wait until closer to Christmas to read and review.

If you like novellas and shorter stories,I highly recommend this read. Great and interesting characters, much is hidden to be revealed at just the right time, and romance blossoms as well. Truly, this book is so well done considering the size…less than 200 pages. It’s a thoroughly enjoyable mystery read so go get it!!

REVIEW OF SECOND NOVELLA- A TALE OF TWO HEARTS

Another fantastic Christmas Novella from this author. I will readily admit that I’m not a fan of novellas, but I so enjoyed the first in this series, and I was eager to read the second.

Wonderful characters, great story, lovely faith theme, and much Dickens as well. To top it all off, of course a happier ever after….maybe for more than one thinks.

Terrific story.

I won one book and received one from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

MY REVIEW OF THE THIRD BOOK-THE OLD LACE SHOP

A wonderful Christmas novella by Michelle Griep! She creates fascinating stories even in novellas. That’s no small feat since I’m not a big fan of them. Such a sweet story…and I always love children in books! A sweet read that’s enjoyable,fun, and some wonderful Christian morals enter twined in the story. The little girl touched my heart.

This collection is a wonderful touch of Christmas for any reader. I thoroughly enjoyed each unique story…so go get it to enjoy a wonderful feeling of the Christmas spirit.
