Christmas Gift Recommendations

It’s that time of year when we’re scratching our heads wondering what to give our friends and family to recognize the birth of Christ. My “Go To” gift is always a book. This year (spoiler alert), I’m gifting my closest friends Lysa TerKeurst’s Embraced – 100 Devotions to Know God is Holding You Close. It’s a fantastic read.

If you’re looking for recommendations for middle grade and young adult books, simply check out my writing partners on this site. You can find all their books on Amazon. This time of year, I’d like to point you to Laurie Germaine’s Tinsel in a Tangle, an adorable story about a clumsy elf with a big heart.

Other terrific reads include:

— The Code of Silence series by Tim Shoemaker

— Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys

— Keturah and Lord Death by Martine Leavitt

— Purple Moon and Coffee Shop Devos by Tessa Emily Hall

— The Cooper Kids Adventure Series by Frank Peretti

Have you read any spectacular middle grade or young adult books lately? If so, please share them with me. I’m always looking for a good, clean read.

  • Thanks for the shout-out, Jill! <3 My 14-yr-old loves the Unwanted series, as well as the Storybound series, if you're looking for some fantasy fun. 🙂
