Beneath the Swirling Sky by Carolyn Leiloglou and Vivienne To (Illustrator) Review

  Happy Monday Bookish Lovelies :) I pray today finds you all doing well, and I'm so thankful you chose to stop on by The Preppy Book Princess today for another book review. I have to say this weekend was a bit of a doozy around here. Our area got hit with a crazy summer storm on Saturday evening, and I've never personally seen anything like it. There were crazy amounts of rain, hail and high winds, and there was quite a bit of damage around our city after it blew on through. We were extremely thankful that all the damage to our house and yard was cosmetic, but we still had quite a mess to clean up yesterday. We spent most of the day doing that, and then got to spend some time with family for the rest of the evening. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend no matter where you're reading from! If you're new to my blog, I'd like to preface this review by saying that I love reading across quite a few different genres, with Christian fiction being my favorite. It's b...

This is Where it Ends by Cindy K. Sproles Review

I'm Kirby, and I'm thrilled you're here. Usually I share reviews with you all on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays each week. However, this week I ended up missing Monday's post as I was away for an overnight trip with my hubby, and wanted to focus my time and attention on him. While we were away unfortunately, we had several situations come into play including an emergency back home, and it was a bit of a stressful experience. I'm thankful today that everyone is okay, and that I'm able to have this day just to catch up around the house, spend some time in Bible study, and spend some time getting back on track with reviews for you all. Today's review is for a recently released Christian historical fiction title, and I hope you'll all keep on reading down below for my full review. This is Where...

If I'm being honest, the past couple of weeks have been tough. I've been dealing with some personal stuff, we've had a family emergency raging through, and I've been working a lot of extra hours at work on top of it all. I've found myself escaping into fiction quite a bit, and I'm looking forward to a couple of vacation days I have upcoming as I feel I need a little bit of rest and relaxation from all the stress that's been mounting as of late.
