Review: Jane Austen and Charles Dickens devotionals

I got review copies of both the Jane Austen and the Charles Dickens devotionals. I love them both! The books are double-page spreads, and one of the pages contains an excerpt from one of the author's works, while the other page contains reflections on the writing and how it relates to our spiritual walk with Christ. There's a Bible verse for every one.

One of the things I like about these books are that they're sorted by topic, not date. They aren't dated at all: instead the headers are a description of what that day deals with (Christ's unconditional Love, Forgiven much and Forgiving much, etc).

They're beautiful, too. The outside is covered with cloth, and there's a ribbon bookmark.

These books would make excellent gifts, or additions to a Dickens or Austen lover's library.

  1. Please enter me in the giveaway for the Austen devotional. I am hopeless at daily devotionals so these topic oriented ones might work better for me. Thanks for giving me a chance to win one.

  3. I'd love to own either, but if I had to choose it would be Charles Dickens. I favor "Great Expectations" right now, but often change my opinion. :)
    Thank you for the giveaway.

  4. I'd love the Jane Austen one. I love all of her books, but both of the ones that start with Ps are my favorite! Pride and Prejudice and Persuasion.

  5. Hi,

    I'd definitely choose the Charles Dickens one, and my favorite book is David Copperfield.
