When the Day Comes by Gabrielle Meyer Review

 Hello Everyone :)

I pray today finds you all doing well, and I want to thank you all for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess.

I'm especially excited for today's review, as I'm about to share with you all a review of one of my absolutely favorite reads of 2022! I ended up including this one on my list of favorite books I read in 2022, and I can't wait to tell you guys all about it. 

This one was truly unlike anything I'd ever read before, and I can't wait to get to carry on with the rest of the series.

I hope you'll all keep on reading below for my full review.


When the Day Comes by Gabrielle Meyer:



Source: Library

Publisher: Bethany House

Publication Date: May 3rd, 2022

Genre: Christian Fiction/Historical Fiction/Time Travel/Dual Timeline/Speculative Fiction

Synopsis:

Libby has been given a powerful gift: to live one life in 1774 Colonial Williamsburg and the other in 1914 Gilded Age New York City. When she falls asleep in one life, she wakes up in the other without any time passing. On her twenty-first birthday, Libby must choose one path and forfeit the other--but how can she possibly decide when she has so much to lose?

My Review:

When the Day Comes was a wonderful story, and was definitely one of my favorite reads of 2022. As someone who reads a lot of time travel, dual timeline, and historical fiction novels, I can honestly say that this is one of my the most original stories I've ever had the pleasure of reading, and I found myself glued to the pages throughout the entire thing.

Libby was an incredibly likeable protagonist, and it was easy to find myself sympathizing with every situation she finds herself in. I most admired how above all, she was determined to honor God in every situation, and refused to believe He didn't have a master hand on everything she's had to experience throughout her time traveling adventures. 

Both historical settings were beautifully done, and I enjoyed the fact that I haven't read too much of either of these time periods/settings before, and I thought the vivid imagery and descriptions really made them come alive on the page.

The time travel portion was effortlessly put together, and I admired how the author weaved such a complex storyline, without it every being confusing or hard to follow for this reader personally. Of all the time travel novels I've ever read, I can wholeheartedly state that this is one of the best ones.

I don't want to spoil anything for anyone, but the ending both surprised me, and gave me all the feels. I honestly cannot wait to continue on with this series, and to discover what Gabrielle Meyer has next in store for her readers.

Final Rating: 5/5.

I can't recommend this one enough, and I'm so happy there's another time travel novel option for Christian fiction fans.

Thanks so much for reading guys! Have a great rest of your day :)

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...
