  Good Morning Friends :) I hope you're all doing well, and I want to thank you all for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess. I've been enjoying reading Christian living books the last little while. It's sometimes hard to find ones that are Biblically sound, and I've read quite a few that ended up being quite disappointing.  However, there's also quite a few really good ones that I've discovered along the way, and today I'd like to share a review of one I recently finished with you all.

Happy Friday Friends :) I pray that this day finds you all doing well, and I want to thank you for joining me here today on The Preppy Book Princess. I'm extremely excited for the upcoming week. My hubby and I usually take our annual vacation in September as that's always the easiest for his work schedule, and it's finally almost here. Obviously, Covid has changed the way we will be vacationing, but nonetheless, I'm excited to have some time away with my husband, just enjoying each other's company and getting away from all the stress for a bit to celebrate our eight year wedding anniversary. I'm actually considering doing a bit of "trip report" on my blog of our trip when we get back, but I'll have to see how that ends up going. Because I will be gone for part of the next week, I am fairly certain that I will not be doing my regular three blog posts, as I want to take time to actually enjoy my vacation. However, I will be back soon, and in the mean...

  Happy Monday Friends :) I hope you're all having a great start to your week and a great end to your long weekend. I want to thank you all for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess. Unfortunately, our city is going through another heat wave, and the beautiful fall like temperatures of last week have pretty much disappeared. I always get a little impatient at this time of year when summer seems to be too stubborn to leave, and I'm really anxious for cooler temperatures, and plenty of the beautiful rainy fall days. That being said, I recently had the chance to read an upcoming Christian fiction release that definitely gives off lots of fall vibes, and today I'm hear to share with you all what I thought about it.

  Hello Friends :) I hope you're all doing well, and I want to thank you all for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess. I've been thinking a lot about happiness, joy and our flesh lately. It seems so easy to find our happiness in this world, and then scream and freak out every time something doesn't go exactly the way we want it to. However, God never promises us complete happiness and everything we want in this broken world. Finding our happiness apart from God and through our worldly flesh is never the answer, no matter how much society may say otherwise. As Christians we are called to take up our cross on a daily basis, and deny and repent from any fleshy attitudes, thoughts or actions. So often we seem to just want to float along without any troubles and while that might seem like a great way to live your life, it's also a great way to never mature our faith.  God can't give us true happiness apart from believing in and accepting Je...
