You curl up into your favorite reading corner, your fingers itching to open a new fantasy book. The main character is relatable, the dialogue sparks to life, and the worldbuilding is intriguing. But as you flip the pages, your heart grows heavy. All of the relationships are toxic and there’s no redemption for any of them in sight, and as you try to push forward, an unexpected spice scene crops up, and you pitch it across the room with a groan. Where are the stories with relationships that are healthy or at least are learning to be healthy and weave redemptive plotlines through it, and all without all that unwanted spice?
Stories stay with us long after we read them.​
So why not read books that fill you with light?
About Jessica Sprecher
Ever since I was a young girl I have loved stories with beautiful redemptive growth and healthy relationships—family, romantic, and friends—but always struggled to find many stories with these elements that weren’t toxic. Now I write the stories with the themes that I always wanted to find but toiled to uncover.
