Dust by Kara Swanson Review

  Good Morning Bookish Lovelies :) I pray today finds you all doing well, and I'm so thankful you chose to join me (Kirby) here on The Preppy Book Princess today for another book review. Back when I still read a lot of secular young adult books, fantasy was one of my favorite genres. I can't begin to describe how exciting it is to see many of these titles starting to now pop up in the Christian fiction genre. This particular title was one I had been anticipating ever since it's release, and I recently finally got the chance to go ahead and read it. I hope you'll all join me down below for today's full review.

The Christmas Bus by Melody Carlson Review

  Good Morning All My Beautiful Bookish Lovelies :) It's been far longer than my last post than I had intended, and for that I do apologize. This year has unfortunately been one of the toughest I've ever personally dealt with, and sometimes as I was dealing with hard circumstances that were out of my control, I ended up having to take a step away from my blog. I've also dealt with some personal hurts that have come about from the Christian book community this year especially, and it's made wanting to be present in this community a bit harder. That being said, I've prayed a lot about it, and I do still feel like God has a purpose for me and for my blog going forward, so I'm going to be doing some reevaluating about how to best grow my blog and bookstagram and the like for Him in the weeks to come. Regardless of everything that's been going on, I'm thankful more than ever for this advent season and the time it's given me to reflect on the greatest gift...

The Year of Goodbyes and Hellos by Kelly Irvin Review

  Happy Wednesday Bookish Lovelies :) I pray today finds you all doing well, and I'm so thankful you've taken the time to stop on by The Preppy Book Princess today for another book review. This past week, I've gone through some pretty hard things, but I've come out the other end of it being so grateful for all the amazing blessings I have in my life. Sometimes it's so easy to fall into the comparison trap or it's easy to spend our time focusing on all the problems rather than on all the blessings. I truly want to try and change my outlook on this, and spend more time shining a light for Jesus. I hope to get to spend time shining a light for Him on my blog, and it's definitely going to be one of my personal goals going into 2024. Now long winded intro aside, I'm looking forward to diving right into sharing another book review today with you all. I hope you'll all join me down below for today's full review.
