I can’t believe I’ve never made a summer reading list for Christian women! As much as I talk about books on this site, it’s never occurred to me to put together a reading guide for the summer.
Making a summer reading list is one of the ways I prepare for an intentional summer in my home. There are so many books out there, and it’s sometimes hard to know what to read.
So, if you’re making your summer reading list, below are some of my all time favorite books for you to add to your summer reading list (plus some books I plan on reading this summer)!

Thank you for this excellent list, Leigh Ann. I’ve read the majority of these and found them excellent, so I’ve printed out your list and will attempt to finish it off. I finished “Just Open the Door” by Jen Schmidt today, and I highly recommend it.
Your blog is a blessing and encouragement to me. Thank you for your work.
That one is on my list too! Thanks for sharing!
Leigh Ann, thank you so much for including The Hideaway on your fiction list! I’m thrilled you enjoyed the story! And also, I just finished reading Anne of Green Gables for the first time (I know, I know). Needless to say, I loved it so much.
I just read Anne of Green Gables last summer. I couldn’t believe I hadn’t read it before either. I loved it too!
