The Preppy Book Princess

Good Morning Everyone :) How's your week been so far? Mine's been a little crazy as there seems to be a lot going on right now, but I never mind the busyness as it makes me feel productive. Since the days has been so busy lately, I've especially been enjoying curling up with a book before bed to unwind and relax, and I've read quite a few amazing reads lately. I've been reading the Maine Clambake series by Barbara Ross for a few years, and it's definitely become one of my all time favorite cozy mystery series. I couldn't wait to dive into the newest release in the series, and after finishing it I knew I needed to share my thoughts and opinions about it with you all.

Hello Everyone :) I hope you're all having a great week, and I want to thank you all for joining me today here on The Preppy Book Princess. If you've been reading my blog for awhile, then you probably already know that my all time favorite genre is young adult fiction, especially young adult contemporaries. However, it makes me sad that there isn't a ton of Christian novels within this genre. So you can imagine how happy I was last summer to discover the wondrous reads that are Jenny B Jones' YA novels.  I read There You'll Fine Me (Review here ) last summer, and I was instantly hooked on her writing. This year I decided to try out the Charmed Life Mysteries series, and I loved them. I reviewed books one and two here and here, and today I'm excited to share my review of the third and final book with you all.

I've reviewed quite a few of Mandi's previous books on my blog, and you can find those reviews here , here , here , here, and here .
