January Book Haul

I know it hasn't been that long since I posted my last book haul guys, but I'm here today with another one for you all.


My birthday was in January, and I was lucky enough to receive some new books that I'm very excited to read. As well, a couple of the books I bought myself with gift cards after Christmas from Amazon took so long to get here that I ended up not waiting to include them in the past haul, and they'll be in this one instead.


First up, I'm going to share all the ebooks I received as gifts on my new Kindle Paperwhite:


The Gifting by K. E. Ganshert:



I had actually purchased the physical copy of this one for my hubby for Christmas, and then afterwards we'd discovered that it's actually a free ebook through Amazon. I ended up downloading it, and now since we both have copies of it we're considering doing a buddy read with it, as I think it'll honestly appeal to both of us.


Life In The No Dating Zone by Patricia B Tighe:



This is one that had been on my tbr list for quite some time, so my hubby ended up buying it for me for my birthday. I've already read it and loved it, and I'm really looking forward to continuing on with the rest of the series.


Paper Hearts by Courtney Walsh:



Another one that had been on my TBR list for quite some time, and one that I'd talked about quite a bit on my blog. I can't wait to read this one.


And lastly for e-books, 

My hubby purchased the entire Rock Harbor collection by Colleen Coble for me:



The publisher put this on a crazy sale of .99 cents for all five books. I definitely couldn't pass that up, especially since the regular price is 29.99 Canadian.


And now onto physical books:

One of the books I was the most excited to receive was the Puffin In Bloom edition of Little Women 






This was the only book I was missing in the tenth anniversary editions of Ally Carter's Gallagher Girls series, and I'm happy to now have the complete set. 



I received Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles which was a favorite read of mine from a few years ago.



Through The Zombie Glass by Gena Showalter was the only book I was missing from the series, and I'm hoping I'll now be able to marathon read this whole series. 



I've really been looking forward to reading this trilogy by Krista Mcgee, and I'm really thankful I received the only book I was missing from it for my birthday.



Young Widows Club by Alexandra Coutts sounded like a really original story idea, and unlike anything I'd ever read before. It also ended up being a really good deal when my hubby ordered it as Indigo had the hardcover for 6.00!



I'd asked for this one by Katie Mcgarry, as it was the only one I was missing from her Thunder Road series. I haven't read book two yet either, but I'm really wanting to get on with doing so, so that I'll be able to read the novella included with her newest release.



My hubby also surprised me with ordering me this gorgeous superhero book sleeve from Etsy. This was the main thing I'd wanted for my birthday since I don't own one, and I really loved the design he picked out.



Second Impressions by Pepper Basham was a novel that I'd ordered for myself with an Amazon gift card, and it took almost a month to get here which I wasn't impressed with, especially considering it was one of the books I'd really been wanting to read in January. Hopefully I'll get to it in February instead.



This was the other book in my super delayed Amazon order, and I was so excited for it. Unfortunately, as I mentioned in my January wrap up, it fell a little short for me, but oh well that's the way it goes sometimes.



Amy and Roger's Epic Detour is a book I've been wanting to own my own copy of ever since I read it for the first time. I've had to check it out of the library each time I felt compelled to reread it, and so I can't even say how happy I am to have received it for my birthday.

And finally, my last book received/purchased in January was Say You'll Remember Me by Katie McGarry:



I purchased this one as a birthday present for myself, and I took advantage of the preorder offer where you'll be emailed an exclusive novella if you did so. I can't wait to read this one, and I also can't wait to read the novella and find out what my favorite characters from her previous series are up to these days.

Thanks so much for reading guys :)

If any of you have read any of these books I'd love to hear what you thought about them.

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 ...

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...

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...
