The Preppy Book Princess

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. Do any of you guys love discovering new self published titles on Amazon? I have a really bad habit of constantly looking up books on there, and adding so many new titles to my wish list and tbr list. Once in awhile, I try and go back and actually purchase some of the never ending titles I've added to those lists, and quite often I really end up enjoying them. Today I'd like to share with you all my review for one of my most recently purchased Amazon titles.

One humiliating photo, a stupid prank, and a hashtag that goes viral. That's how my senior year goes from predictable to absurd in a heartbeat. This year is su...

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.

Hey Guys! I hope you're summer is off to a great start, and I want to thank you all for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess. In case you didn't already know this about me, my all time favorite genre is young adult contemporary. I read lots of different genres, and love a lot of different genres, but my absolute favorite continues to be contemporaries aimed at the young adult audience. Today I'd like to share a review with all of you guys for a book that I completely loved the story, but have to mention that I can't completely recommend it either as the amount explicit language scattered throughout is beyond horrific. I've heard it mentioned a few times now that as more and more adults are reading young adult, that publishers and authors have decided to include more "adult" content within the genre. This honestly makes me so sad as one of my favorite reasons for reading young adult in the first place is that it did ha...

Hello Bookish Friends :) I hope you're all having a great week so far, and I want to thank you all for joining me here today on The Preppy Book Princess. Today I'd like to share a review for a book by an author who's earlier reads continue to be some of my all time favorite contemporaries, and I was quite curious as to whether or not this one would live up to hear earlier releases for me or not.

(Mae for short), an aspiring filmmaker with big dreams. After finding Hugo's spare ...

Hello Bookish Friends :) Thanks so much for joining me today on The Preppy Book Princess. If you remember, a couple of weeks ago I shared my review for Amy Clipston's Roadside Assistance which you can find here , and I'd talked about how while I enjoyed the writing style, the realistic way grief is portrayed, and many of the side characters, I didn't end up loving it as much as I thought I would because I couldn't really connect with Amy's character. The one character I'd really loved was that of Whitney, and I was really looking forward to reading her story. Today I'm here to share with all of you whether or not it lived up to my expectations. Destination Unknown by Amy Clipston: Source: Library Publisher: Zondervan Publication Date: February 4th, 2014 Genre: Inspirational Fiction/Young Adult Fiction Series: Roadside Assistance Synopsis: It's senior year, and Whitney Richards is tired of the constant pressures to be perfect.

Hello Everyone :) Thanks so much for joining me today on The Preppy Book Princess. If any of you have been reading my blog for awhile, you may remember that a few weeks back I'd read and reviewed Love and Gelato by Jenna Evans Welch here , and I completely adored it.  I was definitely anticipating reading the sequel, especially considering it's set in Ireland and sounded super sweet and adorable. I finally got the chance to read it last week, and so today I'd like to share what I thought about it with all of you guys.
