The Preppy Book Princess

Hello Everyone :) 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. I'm so happy to say that I survived the last couple of weeks at work, and I'm beyond belief thankful that everything should be back on its way to normal once again. For today's post, I'm excited to share with you all an upcoming book that I know you're all going to love! A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of reading and reviewing Mandi Blake's debut novel, Just As I Am, and I loved Addie and Declan's story so very much. You can check out that review here . So when Mandi contacted me asking if I'd be interested in reading and reviewing the second book in the series, I couldn't have been more excited. After reading this one, I was completely blown away, and once again, I'm amazed by just how fantastic of a storyteller Mandi truly is! But I'm getting ahead myself, let's go...

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. Field Notes on Love by Jennifer E Smith: Source: Library Publisher: Delacorte Press Publication Date: March 5th, 2019 Genre: Young Adult Fiction/Contemporary Synopsis: Having just been dumped by his girlfriend, British-born Hugo is still determined to take his last-hurrah-before-college train trip across the United States.

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

Happy Friday Everyone :) How's your reading going so far this summer? Last month, I kept having one, two and three star reads, and I was so thankful for the few four or five star books that I encountered that broke the tireless cycle. This month so far though, I've only had great experiences with books, and I've discovered a bunch of amazing stories that wrapped me up within their story worlds. Today, I'd like to share a review for one such book with you all. Midnight on the River Grey by Abigail Wilson: Source: Publisher (Thomas Nelson) Via NetGalley Publisher: Thomas Nelson Publication Date: July 2nd, 2019 Genre: Historical Fiction/Christian Fiction Synopsis: She knew the house was keeping secrets.

Happy Wednesday Everyone :) 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. I had the opportunity to read and review a recently released novel from Revell Publishing as part of the Revell Reads Blogger Program, and today I'm beyond excited to share my review of this beautiful book with you all. Sometimes you can tell from the first pages of a story that it's going to be something you'll love, and as such, I knew right from the start that this particular story was going to be a winner in my eyes. All Manner of Things by Susie Finkbeiner: Source: Complimentary Copy From The Publisher Publisher: Revell Publication Date: June 4th, 2019 Genre: Christian Fiction/Historical Fiction Synopsis: When Annie Jacobson's brother Mike enlists as a medic in the Army in 1967, he hands her a piece of paper with the address of their long-estranged father.

Happy July 1st everyone! And happy Canada Day to all my fellow Canadians. I'm so relieved to have the last two weeks behind us, and that work is finally entering into a more normal pace. I'm also hopeful that July is going to be a great reading month for me, and that I'll have way less one and two star books than I did during the month of June. Now that's not to say that I didn't read any good books in June, as I definitely did, and I discovered many new favorites. However, there were a few that ended up being quite disappointing, and I'm hoping that won't be the case for July. Here's all the books I read in June, listed in the order of which I finished them: Don't Look Back by Jennifer L Armentrout: I've long been a fan of Jennifer L Armentrout's books, and Don't Look Back was one that I was really looking forward to reading. I still enjoy reading young adult thrillers, and this one had me intrigued from the synopsi...

Happy Friday Everyone :) I've been absent from the last First Line Friday's, mainly due to my crazy work schedule, and I'm so very excited to be back this time to share the first line of an amazing book I'm currently reading. If you're unfamiliar, First Line Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Hoarding Books , and involves sharing the first line of the book you're currently reading. All Manner of Things by Suzie Finkbeiner: Release Date: June 4th, 2019 About The Book: When Annie Jacobson's brother Mike enlists as a medic in the Army in 1967, he hands her a piece of paper with the address of their long-estranged father.

Good Morning Everyone :) I hope you're all having a great week so far, and I want to thank you all for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess. For today's post, I'm featuring a novella by one of my favorite authors, Lindsay Harrel.
