The Preppy Book Princess

Hello Friends :) I can't believe we're already on our way to the end of summer, but I can't say I'm sad to see it go. I truly enjoy each and every one of the beautiful seasons that our Heavenly Father has designed, but Fall is by far my favorite. The months of September through December are my favorite time of the year, and I'm very much looking forward to them. With how crazy everything ended up being over spring and summer, my hubby and I really didn't end up doing much. I'm hoping we'll actually get to take part in a few of my favorite things to do this time of year, but if not, I will most definitely be curling up with some of the books I'm about to share with you all. These are the books I'm personally the most excited about releasing for the rest of the year: I loved the first two titles in this series, and I can't wait to read Grace's story. I pretty much adore everything that Amy Clipston writes, so I don't expect this one to ...

Happy Friday Friends :) I'm honestly kind of surprised that it's already the end of July. I feel compared to the last few months that this one ended up going by extremely fast. However, that may partly be due to the fact that I read so many amazing reads during this month, and also may be due to the fact that I was able to go to the lake with my family for a few days a little while back. Today, I'm once again excited to be linking up with Hoarding Books for another edition of First Line Friday. For many years, Ann H Gabhart is an author that I've been wanting to try, but had never gotten around to doing so. When I got the opportunity to be a part of the Revell Reads Blog Tour for her newest book, I couldn't wait to see what I've been missing out on all these years.  After finishing it a few days ago, I knew I wanted to feature it for this week's First Line Friday. An Appalachian Summer by Ann H. Gabhart: About the Book: I n 1933, most people are focused on ...

Happy Thursday Friends :) How has your summer been going? I know it's definitely been different for all of us this year, but I'm trying to focus on the positive side of it instead of all the negatives. Usually summer is such a busy time at work that I barely have any time to do anything fun or spend anytime with family or friends. This year for the first time in years I've actually been able to join my family for our annual lake vacation, and start revamping our yard for the first time since we bought our house back in 2015. When tragedy strikes, it's easy to fall into depression or to focus on the bad things, but always remember there's a light at the end of every dark tunnel, and He's always right there walking it with us. Today's verse will hopefully help serve as a reminder to us all that He will forever be our refuge and He will never leave us or abandon us. "The Lord is good. When trouble comes he is a strong refuge. And he knows everyone who trus...

Hello Friends :) I hope you're all doing well, and I want to thank you for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess. Near the end of 2019, I had read my very first Lynette Eason novel, the first book in her Danger Never Sleeps series. You can find that review here.   Ever since finishing that one, I've been anxiously awaiting the opportunity to get to read the second book in this series, and a few days ago I finally got the chance to do so. Today I'm here to share with all of you what I ended up thinking about it. Acceptable Risk by Lynette Eason: Source: Publisher via NetGalley Publisher: Revell Publication Date: August 4th, 2020 Genre: Christian Fiction/Christian Suspense Series: Danger Never Sleeps Synopsis: Sarah Denning is a military journalist with the Army in the Middle East when her convoy is attacked and she's taken hostage. When former Army Ranger Gavin Black is asked by his old unit commander--Sarah's imposing father--to plan an...

Happy Monday Bookish Friends :) Did y'all have a good weekend? Mine ended up actually being pretty good, despite getting off to a rockier start. I was able to spend more time with my Bible, and I managed to finish a few really great books as well. I've actually been pleasantly surprised by just how many amazing books I've read so far this month, and I always love those kind of reading months. For today's post, I thought it would be fun to share my review with you all of one of these amazing reads I finished in the last few days. This particular title was especially fun to review, as it was another book by this author that was actually one of my very first NetGalley reads back in 2016, and you can check out that review here . Love and a Little White Lie by Tammy L. Gray: Source: Publisher via NetGalley Publisher: Bethany House Publication Date: August 4th, 2020 Genre: Christian Fiction/Contemporary Romance Synopsis: After hitting rock bottom, January decides she has noth...

Hello Friends :) Can you believe it's already almost August? I feel personally like the month of July went by so fast, maybe partly due to the fact that I was able to get away to the lake with my family for a few days. I've also been reading some pretty amazing books within the last couple of weeks, and that may be another reason why this month seems to be speeding on by. For today's post, I'm looking forward to sharing my review of one of those books with you, and this one is especially exciting as it's my first time reading a book by this particular author. An Appalachian Summer by Ann H Gabhart: Source: Compliementary Copy Provided by the Publisher as Part of the Revell Reads Blogger Program Publisher: Revell Publication Date: June 30th, 2020 Genre: Historical Fiction/Christian Fiction Synopsis: When Piper gets the opportunity to volunteer as a horseback Frontier Nursing courier in the Appalachian Mountains for the summer, she jumps at the chance to be something ...

Happy Friday Friends :) There's so many reasons I'm excited that it's once again Friday. I'm excited to be taking part in another edition of First Line Friday hosted by Hoarding Books , but I'm also excited to be featuring one of my favorite author's new releases for this week's edition. First Line Friday simply consists of sharing the first line from the book you're currently reading, and today I'm going to be sharing from Mandi Blake's new book, which released last week. Remembering the Cowboy by Mandi Blake: About the Book: They have unfinished business. She just can’t remember what it is. Camille Vanderbilt is headed back home to Wyoming with one goal: find her old best friend and give him a piece of her mind for ghosting her six years ago. She won’t let anyone stand in her way… until a deer runs into the road and causes her to wreck and forget almost everything. Noah Harding lives a simple life as a firefighter and rancher until Camille cras...
