The June Bug Catcher by Heather Ball is an inspirational story about finding self-exploration, redemption, and second chances while developing a deeper connection with God in life. Readers will observe a positive change in Emma’s life with humorous and fun instances. The June Bug Catcher is Heather Ball’s first novel, and it features a genuinely flawed and quirky female protagonist that anyone will root for. Her curiosity and her impulsive move across the country are traits that will keep readers’ eyes on her, wanting to know what happens at the end of the road. The narrative is hugely engaging and littered with scenes that are deeply moving and psychologically rich. Heather Ball is a great storyteller who enriches her tale with wit and uplifting positivity. In Emma, she creates a character that readers can easily relate to. This is an engrossing tale with strong Christian themes, a delightful read for fans of Christian romance. Reviewed by Jane Riley.

Packed with humor, this page-turner keeps readers wanting more of Emma's adventures as she navigates loss and recovery, friendship and family. Emma is a fun narrator whose quirky, sometimes darkly humored insights leave readers laughing out loud. Beneath the humor, however, readers encounter a deep-thinking woman, one who often prioritizes others' happiness over her own but who relies on faith to see her through her dismal days. As readers travel with the protagonist through her pains, losses, and gains, they find themselves leaving the pages of this book not only with a memorable narrator as their guide but with a friend who cared enough to share her journey with others. A more adventurous version of Bridget Jones' Diary, this book gives readers hope that no matter what they experience, if they look hard enough a second chance might just be around a corner, or perhaps where they least expect it. This is the perfect, fun summer read. Book review by Nicole Yurcaba. Read the full review here The US Review of Books

Anything but boring. There are some books I just cannot finish; this was not one of them. The novel was relatable to today's culture. I think there could be an Emma out there in the world.

It was a fun read. The book was lighthearted and easy to follow along. Emma was not perfect; that made her more likable. I could see pieces of Heather’s sense of humour.
