September and October Book Haul :)

Hey guys!

As everybody who reads my blog is aware, I've been on a bit of book buying ban for the last few months. I came home with so many new books from RT Booklovers this spring, that I kind of thought it would be a bit frivolous to buy anymore, and so, I went a few months without actually buying any books.

However, that did change in September and October, and I did end up purchasing a few books for myself, and I thought today would be the perfect day to share that haul of books with all you guys. :).

First off, on our trip to Disneyworld in September, we happened to fly out of the city that has my favorite Chapters bookstore. So on the way home, we decided to stop there, and I came out with four amazing books that I can't wait to read.

First, I got Don't Even Think About It by Sarah Mlynowski, as I've loved the previous books I've read by her, and then, since as you guys know I've been dying to read more of the classics, I also picked up:

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte,

and Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen.

Then in October, I happened to visit our local used bookstore, which I hadn't been to in awhile. I love supporting this particular bookstore, as all of the profits go towards our local animal shelter, and that is a cause near and dear to my heart, since it's where my hubby and I adopted our kitten from.

They also have insane prices, and these four books were only a dollar total. I ended up donating more than that, because I felt bad taking them for such a low price. I got:

A Good Yarn by Debbie Macomber, which is the second book in The Blossom Street series, and I'm excited to read it, since I loved the first book so much.

Rebecca's Christmas Gift by Emma Miller, and I'm always excited for new Love Inspired novels.

Thursdays at Eight by Debbie Macomber, guys let's face it I can never turn down a Debbie Macomber novel,

and finally, This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen, which is one of my favorite books by her, and I actually didn't own this one yet.

Lastly, I decided to place an order on Book Outlet during their Booktoberfest sale to buy some Christmas gifts for my husband and best friend. Obviously I won't be sharing those books on here, as I know they both read my blog, and might end up seeing what I purchased for them.

However, I did also purchase a few books for myself, which I'm excited to share with you all.

Firstly, I got Miss Mayhem by Rachel Hawkins. Everyone knows how much I loved Rebel Belle, and I honestly can't wait to dive into this second one!

Next I got, A Season To Wed by Rachel Hauck, Cindy Kirk, and Cheryl Wyatt. I've mentioned before how much I've been loving the A Year Of Wedding Novellas, and while I'm not very far into them yet, I decided to grab this one anyways, since it was such a good price.

I then got Once Upon A Prince by Rachel Hauck, and I'm so excited to finally read some of her books, especially after meeting her at RT, and seeing what an amazing person she was.

Lastly, I purchased a 3 books in one collection of the first three books in the Spooksville series by Christopher Pike. This was originally supposed to be a Christmas present for Neil, as we both really liked the TV show, and expressed interest in reading the books, but he was having such a bad day the day the order came, that I decided just to give it to him then instead.

And that's it for my haul guys. As you can see, I got some pretty amazing books, and I can't wait to read them, and review them here on my blog.

Thanks for reading! And i'll see you all tomorrow for Top 10 Tuesday.

Della and Darby by Susannah B. Lewis Review

Happy Monday Friends :) I pray today finds you all doing well, and I'm so thankful you decided to stop by my little corner of the internet. My husband and I actually have this week off of work for a much needed holiday, and I'm excited for the many fun things we have planned. Aside from the fun things, I'm honestly thankful to have some extra time to get my house back in shape, and to get more organized for Christmas. I also hope to have lots of time to curl up with some great reads, and I recently had a chance to read one of my most anticipated 2023 releases! Earlier in the year, I read my first novel by Susannah B. Lewis, and I couldn't have loved it more. It was definitely one of my favorite reads of this entire year, and I've been looking forward to reading her next release ever since.

First Line Friday: Courting Mr. Emerson

Happy Friday Everyone :) Since it is Friday, I'll once again be participating in First Line Friday which is hosted by Hoarding Books . For this week, I'm going to be sharing the first line from Melody Carlson's newest book, Courting Mr. Emerson. About The Book: When the fun-loving and spontaneous artist Willow West meets buttoned-up, retired English teacher George Emerson, it's not exactly love at first sight. Though she does find the obsessive-compulsive man intriguing. Making it her mission to get him to loosen up and embrace life, she embarks on what seems like a lost cause--and finds herself falling for him in the process. A confirmed bachelor, George vacillates between irritation and attraction whenever Willow is around--which to him seems like all too often. He's not interested in expanding his horizons or making new friends; it just hurts too much when you lose them. But as the summer progresses, George feels his defenses crumbling. The quest...

Top Ten Tuesday: Ten Characters I'd name a child/cat/dog/car/ etc After.

Happy Tuesday guys! I enjoyed Top Ten Tuesday so much last week, that I decided to go ahead and take part again this week. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and The Bookish, and here's the link to the main page if you're interested in becoming a part of it: http://www.brokeandbookish.com/p/top-ten-tuesday-other-features.html Today's topic is: Ten Characters I'd Name A Child/Cat/Dog/Car/ etc After, and I think it's going to be a really fun one. First, Characters I'd Name a Pet after: 1) Katsa from Kristin Cashore's Graceling: I have to start with Katsa, since it is actually what we named our adorable black and white kitten almost a year ago. She's grown so much since this picture, but this was taken right after we decided on her name. We tried several different book characters, but Katsa is the one she loved right away, and so is what we ended up going with. 2) Rose from Richelle Mead's Vampire Academ...
