Blogmas Day Fifteen: Gifts From My #TBTBSANTA


Welcome to Blogmas Day Fifteen Everyone :)




Today's post is definitely one of the most exciting posts for me so far. If you recall last month I had posted that I was taking part in The Broke and The Bookish's Secret Santa exchange this year, or the #TBTBSanta, as it's come to be known. I had shopped and mailed my package out at the start of December (and I will be doing a post on what I included in mine in the future), and ever since I've been anxiously awaiting for mine to arrive.


Yesterday I was out Christmas shopping with my sister, and when I got home, my package was sitting on our doorstep, and I literally couldn't wait to tear into it.



My Santa this year was Lynne from the blog Words Of Mystery and she was the best Santa ever. I got completely spoiled, and I had so much fun getting to talk to her on Twitter as we definitely seem to have similar reading preferences. Here's all the goodies that were included in my box. :)





I had mentioned in my original email that I love collecting bookmarks, and so she got me these adorable Toronto themed ones, and also an Erin Condren card that I will definitely also be using as a bookmark. She also included a pile of Hershey's Kisses, a delicious looking candy cane, and these gorgeous macaroon cookies; all of which look delicious and I can't wait to devour. She also included a Christmas pocketback from Bath and Body Works, and a beautiful Christmas Card with such a sweet message wrote out into it.


She included two books from my Wishlist, and then included an ARC copy of another book she thought I'd enjoy. The ARC copy of The Replacement Crush by Lisa Brown Roberts definitely made me squeal as I've been wanting to read this ever since I had the pleasure of meeting Lisa Brown Roberts at RT Booklovers back in April. 


Lastly she included this milk bath from a Canadian bath store, and I can't wait to try this out.


I can't thank Lynne enough for all of these gorgeous gifts, and I know they will definitely be put to good use in the upcoming weeks!


I had so much fun participating in this Santa exchange, and I highly encourage any of you guys to give it a try next year! You can find more out about it here



Thanks so much for reading guys, and I will see you all here tomorrow for Blogmas Day Sixteen!

Announcing My Temporary Hiatus From Book Blogging

  Hello all my sweet bookish lovelies :) I pray you all had a lovely Christmas, and are looking forward to having a wonderful New Year's as well. I've shared a little bit of info over the past few months on my blog about why I wasn't around as often, but now it's time to share with you all exactly what that is. My hubby and I found out we were expecting earlier this year, and we had the immense pleasure of welcoming our precious baby boy into the world this month. Because of this, I've decided to take a temporary step back from book blogging and reviewing, while I adjust to being a first time mom to a newborn. I will definitely be back blogging in some form or another, but not sure at this point exactly when that will be as my little man deserves all of his mommy's attention right now. I thank you guys all for being a part of another wonderful year here on The Preppy Book Princess, and I look forward to jumping back into the Christian book community sometime in ...

First Line Friday: The Joy of Falling

Happy Friday Everyone :) I hope you've all had a great week, and that you've had time to curl up with some great books. This week, Lindsay Harrel's newest book released, and I loved it when I had the chance to read and review it. I'm excited to feature it for this week's First Line Friday post which is hosted by the lovely ladies over at Hoarding Books. The Joy of Falling by Lindsay Harrel: About The Book: Eva and Angela must learn to live again. One step at a time. It has been fifteen months since Eva and Angela lost their thrill-seeking husbands in a scuba diving accident. Both women are trying to navigate their way through the grief, but neither one is making much progress. Angela is barely making ends meet, angry at her husband for leaving her to raise three children on her own. Meanwhile, Eva is stuck, unable to move forward after losing the love of her life and her source of inspiration. But then Eva gets a life-changing phone call. Befor...

A Refuge in Montana by Allie Pleiter Review

  Happy Monday My Sweet Bookish Friends :) It's been awhile, how have you all been doing? Originally, I had hoped to be back doing at least semi regular book reviews by now, and since I had an author offer me an ARC copy right around when I wanted to start trying again, I figured I'd give it a go. Unfortunately, I've been dealing with some health complications post partum (which I really don't want to go into at the moment), and my energy is just not where it needs to be at this point. I'm excited to get to share this review with you all as I did enjoy the title and would love to tell you more about it, but this will be my only review for awhile, at least until we can get everything figured out with my health. With that being said, let's dive right into today's review, but first if you'd like to check out my reviews of the previous titles in the series, you can do so using the links below: Rescue on the Farm A Montana Sized Secret Otherwise, keep on read...
