One thought on “Christian Fiction Book Club Connection, April 2018

  1. Thanks for featuring By The Book. I hope some of your readers will join us in the discussion of The Masterpiece. We discussed The House on Foster Hill in March. What a wonderful book for book clubs! The dual time line and the family secrets led to great conversation.
