Posted 22 September 2019 by Katie in Book Buzz, Christian Fiction / 0 Comments

Welcome to the Weekend Book Buzz, reader friends! It’s been a bit of a crazy week here with hubby having done his back mid-week. He’s getting back up and around a bit now, but still having to be pretty careful about what he does and how he does it.

But in amongst all of my drama, there’s been the announcement many of us have been waiting for: The Christy Award finalists! I’d love to hear your thoughts about which books will be this year’s winners.

~ Christy Awards 2019 ~

The finalists for this year’s Christy Awards were announced on Thursday 19 September. Congratulations to all the finalists! For a complete listing with titles and author names, visit www.christyawards.com/finalists-winners.
