This is my very first "Thursday Thirteen," and since I'm such a book nut (my dad suggests I should drop the "book" part) I thought I'd give you a list of thirteen great Christian fiction authors—in no particular order. Happy reading!
- Randy Alcorn
- Angela Hunt
- Francine Rivers
- Karen Kingsbury
- Terri Blackstock
- Tricia Goyer
- Robert Whitlow
- James Scott Bell
- George MacDonald
- Ted Dekker
- Robin Lee Hatcher
- Beverly Lewis
- Lynn Austin

I just read "All Together in One Place" by Jane Kirkpatrick. She is so good at writing historical fiction. It was about women traveling on the Oregon Trail.

I loved Ted Dekker's The Circle Trilogy and Francine Rivers' Redeeming Love. I think that's all I've read off your list…I'm not a big Christian fiction fan. I'd rather read classics.
This is only my 2nd T13: 13 Old Lessons I'm Still Learning. Welcome to the madness!

Oh, also, I participate in a group book blog called the Book Nook Club. We review many Christian fiction books (and lots of others too), if you want to check it out/join us! <a href="http://booknookclub.blogspot.com

Terri Blackstock's books are some of my favorites!! I've only read from a few of those you have listed so I'll have to add the others to my list of "to be read" authors! 🙂

I recognize Terri Blackstock and Beverly Lewis from my time working in various bookstores. One author whose works I remember seeing quite a bit was Janette Oke.
