Reader’s Choice Giveaway – Spring 2026 Edition – Historical Fiction

Spring may be shy about making an appearance this year, but we can still look forward to the new season by exploring all the new releases coming out in April, May and June 2026.

Here’s how this week’s giveaway works: You recommend CHRISTIAN FICTION genre specific titles with release dates in April, May or June 2026 (up to 3 suggestions per genre day) and you have a chance to win one of your recommendations! BUT it’s a little more complicated than that so be sure to read ALL the details before entering.

IMPORTANT TO NOTE: These giveaways are available in paperback or ebook format to US and Canadian readers. Ebooks available internationally if you have a .com kindle account (US Amazon)

Historical Fiction Giveaway Day

To be entered in the draw just leave a comment (or 3) below, including the title(s) of the books in the Historical Fiction genre you would like to win.

Historical Fiction – a full length story or novella or collection of novellas set any time period before 1980. May cross genres such as YA, Suspense, Amish etc and may include dual timelines.

How does it work?

Easy Peasy! Make recommendations in the comment section and if you win, you win the book you suggested.

BUT YOU GOTTA FOLLOW THE RULES

Publication date must be April, May or June 2026

Each day is genre specific, so only submit titles from that genre

Christian Fiction books only please!

You can offer up to three suggestions per genre day BUT they need to be made in 3 separate comments (easier for me to keep track of.)

No email entries this time round since WP comments are working

OF SPECIAL NOTE: IF YOU HAVEN’T COMMENTED ON THIS BLOG BEFORE, YOUR FIRST COMMENT WON’T APPEAR UNTIL I APPROVE IT. AFTER THAT YOUR COMMENTS WILL POST AUTOMATICALLY.

Entrants must submit their own selections (no piggybacking on someone else’s log in.)

It’s helpful to include your email (using AT and DOT instead of @ and . to protect yourself from spammers) but you only need to add it to one of your comments per day. If you choose not to include your email then it’s up to you to contact me if you are a winner.

WINNERS ANNOUNCED ON 

Sunday March 29 2026

(You can enter any of the giveaways up until noon EST on Saturday March 28 2026 Winners will be announced the following day.)

    1. Ohhhh — A Chance for Kallie Mae does sound really good. Ann Gabhart writes this kind of story with such heart and depth. And that cover is deceptively serene, I think, but breathtaking beautiful. Good luck, Stephanie!

  3. Good morning, Kav! Will this dual-timeline work?

    1. Ohhh, love that cover on The Lumber Baron’s Wife and I love the way Melanie Dobson writes a dual timeline! All three of your choices are dual timeline — so interesting how popular that genre has become. Good luck, Diane!

    1. Happy Monday, Tracey. It’s sunny, and most importantly, not snowing! 🙂 You find two new ones and I’m interest in both but particularly intrigued by Miss Beth Bettencourt after reading that snyopis. What???? Good luck, Tracey!

  33. My oh my! I think my head is some place other than on my shoulders these days. ☹ Sorry about that! I’ll blame it on spring arriving and I’m trying to move faster than my “normal” trying to get it all done. I best pace myself or I’ll be running out of gas before I even start. :😉

    Have a glorious Monday! I’m sending you warm thoughts and hopes for you to get some sunshine this week.

  36. Part of Your World by Karen Witemeyer

    More suggestions for other people: In Pursuit of Civility by Jen Turano, The Fearless Cowboy by Jody Hedlund.

    Does the Bethany House imprint, Haven, count? It’s considered clean, but not overtly Christian. A book in that line that fits this category is A Deal With a Debutante by Chelsea Bobulski.

    1. Oohhhh, thanks for the extra suggestions, Sylvia. And yes, Haven counts. A Deal with a Debutante looks good. And I’m thrilled to see another Jen Turnano comedic masterpiece in our reading future! Good luck, Sylvia!

  39. Well, I was obviously scrolling around publisher websites and now I see Jen’s book had been just mentioned. The Lumber Baron’s Wife by Lynn Austin. Thanks!

    1. Bwahaha, our book searching skills are a force to be reckoned with during Reader’s Choice Week. You and Sylvia call it a tie over in Pursuit of Civility. 🙂 And you found a new Sarah Loudin Thomas book coming out in May! Lovely cover! Quite serene but my guess is the story won’t be! Good luck, CC!
