Margot’s Scribbles

Magic and humor and time travel and romance all wrapped up in a well-paced smart story. I loved it!

“This book kept me up way too late. I was hooked the moment I started reading it and couldn’t put it down. It made my emotions go crazy and made me think. I really enjoyed this book. I’m so sad that this series is over. Great job, Margot!!!”

Ellie Robison

Glimmering Light

“This story never lets you take a breath; catastrophe hits and I couldn’t put it down until I knew what would happen. With its subtle mix of gospel principles and non-stop action, this is a great read for young people.”

Melanie Jacobsen
