This is the third book we’ve read from Beaty & Robert’s STEM-inspired series, and it’s just as satisfying as the previous two, but for a surprisingly different reason.

But architect Iggy knows just how to save the day, and might just change Miss Greer’s opinion of building in the process. Not able to practice his passion, Iggy loses his thirst for knowledge, becoming listless and disinterested in school.

Joy also touches on the books she has coming out in 2022. She also generously tells her own journey to being published and the persistence that it took to sell her first book, and encourages all artists to start writing the next thing rather than sitting and waiting for something to sell.

When our Lord is pleased to take pity on the sufferings, both past and present, endured through her longing for Him by this soul which He has spiritually taken for His bride, He, before consummating the celestial marriage, brings her into this His mansion or presence chamber. But is it possible to know what Heaven is like while we remain on earth?
