This month I finished several batches in my 2023 Reading Queue: a quartet of westerns, some historical fiction ranging from the biblical period to the Korean War, and several religious works. Of the westerns my favorite book was Loren D. Estleman's The Book of Murdock; of the historical fiction, my favorite is a three-way tie between Cain at Gettysburg (set during the American Civil War, obviously), The Iceman (set during World War Two), and Fields of Fire (set during the Vietnam War). Of the religious works, my favorite was John Frame's Salvation Belongs to the Lord; it was such a great, easy-to-understand, and succinct approach to Reformed theology that I may very well make it part of Chloe's curriculum next year.
