The Preppy Book Princess

Happy Friday Everyone :) I hope you've all head a great week, and that you're all looking forward to the weekend. I will be working for most if it, but I am looking forward to hopefully have some time to curl up with a great book or two.

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.

Hello Friends :) Any of you who have been reading my blog for awhile are probably not surprised to hear me say that I was beyond excited to get to have the chance to advance read Mandi Blake's upcoming release. I first started reading her books last year, and since then she has quickly become a new favorite author for me. There's something about her stories that truly pull at your heartstrings, leave you with a big ole smile on your face, and truly represent the necessity of faith no matter the circumstances. 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 . Today I can't wait to share with you all my thoughts and opinions of her upcoming March release, and I hope you'll all end up loving this one as much as I did.

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. Life has honestly been a little crazy around here lately. Work's been insanely crazy, Neil and I are both still getting over health issues, and my to do list seems to grow more and more every single day. However, I continue to love finding moments of solitude with great books, and because of how many I've been flying through lately, I've had even more than normal to share on my blog. Today's review is a book that really impacted me, and I hope it'll be the same for all of you. I really can't wait to share about this one with you all. Wonder by R.J.

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. A little while ago, I shared with you all my review of Greenglass House by Kate Milford. I thought it was a really interesting middle grade read, and really ended up enjoying it for the most part. I was really looking forward to continuing on with the second book in the series, and after I finished reading it, I knew I needed to share my thoughts about it with you all.

Happy Friday Everyone :) I hope you've all had a great week, and that your weekend is off to a wonderful start. I want to thank you all for joining me for another edition of First Line Friday, which is hosted by the lovely Hoarding Books. The past couple of weeks, I've been reading and loving the Charmed Life Mysteries by Jenny B Jones. They're funny, they're light hearted, and I really enjoy the character growth that Bella has shown since the start of the novel. I finished the third and final book at the start of this week, and I thought it was only fitting to use that title as my choice for this week's first line. Publisher: Thomas Nelson Publication Date: May 3rd, 2010 About the Book: Newly single, stalked by a killer, and in desperate need of some chic clown shoes--Bella is one skinny mocha frapp away from total meltdown.
