Has any one read the Lori Wick books or Jeanette Oke? I love both of them and have read just about everything they wrote. The Calling of Emily Evans (I think that is the title) was the first Christian fiction I read and I fell in love with her books as well as the genre!!!!

I love Janette Oke books. I have read most of her Love Comes Softly series.
Take care, Melissa.

Jeanette Oke is great and Lori Wick is good, some of her work I really like. I prefer Jeanette though, indeed the Love Comes Softly series is wonderful!!

My mom used to read the Janette Oke books. I've been thinking lately that I should find some of the Love Comes Softly series and re-read them. I seem to remember that the early ones especially were pretty good.
I used to get her children's books as birthday gifts. She wrote several about animals, if I remember correctly. I think I had one that was told from the perspective of a Lab puppy, and another about a skunk (!) |

The Love Comes Softly series is great! After the 8 books in the series there is another 3-4 that follow some of the children as they get older which is really cool. I'm always sad when a good series ends as I wonder what they are up to later. :-) I re-read books all the time so money well spent on them. That series has also come out again since the movies have been made!!

I really like Jeanette Oke. I also like Lynn Austin, and I am really enjoying Christian novels in general, like the series of novels about a particular state, three stories about life in the same state.

I really like all the novels as well. The state ones are fun. Just ordered the new one by Jeanette Oke and Bunn ( I think) The Centurions Wife, anyone read that one??
