Here‘s my #natureaesthetic for #naturalitsysummerswap ☀️
I love my black lab and Pekin ducks 🦆
The lake is my favorite place (I live next to one)
Fall is my favorite season
I grew up on a farm
My favorite flowers are wildflowers 🌸
Finally picked this up from the library to read…I‘ve wanted to read these series for years and the time has finally come. I‘m ready to dive into a world of dragons and adventure 🐉
Added some new sweet ducklings to our little farm in the woods! Introducing Arwen and Aragorn to our home today 🐤
Thank you so much @BennettBookworm 😊🥰
What a wonderful giveaway and I can‘t wait to dive into my new book! The tote bag is adorable and so springy! 🌹🌼
Meh, this was okay. I didn‘t feel a strong connection between Brochan and Ruby, but really liked Grace. It‘s a cute romance, with some unnecessary sex scenes, but overall it was just okay for me.
My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I really liked this book, and am just mesmerized by Graham and his writing. So many great pointers, as a Christian, to take away from this!
My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This will forever be my favorite picture of me and my little guy. Reading “The Giving Tree” on vacation as my little guy looks on at the trees wondering if they‘ll talk to him too. I can‘t wait to recreate this one ❤️
I‘ve never been into romance novels before…but I guess there‘s a first for everything! I‘m really enjoying this one so far!
This was a fun read, and I learned quite a bit about some of the traditions of the Amish during Christmas. It was fun learning a bit of PA Dutch too, since the book references quite a few words.
My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Starting this chunkster this morning! I‘m already enjoying these sweet stories ❤️
I can‘t imagine living the way Mark did for an entire year. No electricity, no technology, but a whole lot of learning and discovery. More importantly, Mark discovers himself and realizes just how much technology has damaged us as humans. Phones, tablets, social media, etc., and I know I could live without this form of technology as well.
My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Way over my head in tbr‘s, but I could care less. As far as I can say, keep those books coming 📖🤓
#bookhaul
I don‘t know if I was emotionally prepared for this one, especially that ending. I finished it last night, but couldn‘t sleep because I couldn‘t stop thinking about it. My heart aches for the both of them, knowing that they would have to say goodbye at some point, but something that you‘re never truly prepared for.
My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Happy Valentine‘s Day and a very incredible #muglove23 opening! Thank you so much @quietjenn for all the awesomeness that is in this box! I love the bookmark, and that mug 😍 The coffee is perfect for my morning breakfasts and the chocolates sound super yummy! I‘m not wasting any time diving into the book either, thank you so much!
And a huge thank you to our hosts @TheKidUpstairs @Cinfhen 🥰
It‘s here! Thanks so much @quietjenn and can‘t wait until the 14th to open 💕💕 #muglove23
I‘ve started this tonight, and had to take a little break because my emotions got the best of me. This is a really sad and heartbreaking novel, but one I‘m ultimately enjoying
What a fun and cute little Christian love story. I loved all the references to Christianity, and it was very uplifting at times. Some parts were a little cheesy and almost unbelievable, but looking past that I thought it was still a fun novel.
My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I really enjoyed this novel, and wasn‘t really expecting the ending. It was sad, yet beautiful all at the same time. I lost a bit of steam towards the middle of the book, but then it picked back up and I couldn‘t seem to put it down. An indulging winter novel at its finest.
My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
January top pick: “Midnight at the Blackbird Cafe” by Heather Webber
What a beautiful and whimsical story this was. If you could eat a pie that sent you messages from your dead loved ones, would you? I would, hands down. I‘d love to eat that pie to talk to my dad one last time (and tell him his Eagles are going to the Super Bowl!)
“Take me deep
Into the wintry woods.
Where hope glitters
Freshly worn”

•Book, snow, woods and coffee. My very favorite things ❤️
Thanks for the lovely giveaway @BennettBookworm and well done on reaching 20K! My favorite book store is in Corolla, North Carolina. It‘s called Island Bookstore, and they have a beautiful variety of books and something to please everyone. There are two levels to this bookstore, and I always find myself visiting here when we vacation.
#20Kgiveaway
It‘s always a good day when your library hold comes in! And such perfect timing for the snowstorm we‘re expected to get tomorrow ❄️
Starting off #sharreadathon this morning with my continuation of #tlotr series 🧙🏻♂️such a beautiful way for her to be remembered ❤️
I‘ve decided to try my hand at TLOTR series again. I‘m a little over halfway through, and some parts I enjoy while others I find a tad boring. It is my goal though to read the entire series throughout the course of the year. This may just be one of those cases where I actually like the movies better (very rare for me).
Going out in the post today! Be on the lookout @quietjenn 💕💕 #muglove23
I‘m going to be on the lookout from now on for this author. A lot of new things have stuck with me after reading this book, and I could agree with a lot of what he was saying. Overall, a very compelling and informative read.
My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A little morning reading while enjoying some rest. I just got over the stomach flu, which was absolutely brutal, so I‘m slowing down the next few days to recover from it all 💕
I‘m really enjoying this beautiful book so far. It‘s such an appropriate book for winter, but also heartbreaking at times. I‘m reading this slowly, and savoring each word. ❄️
This started out great, but slowly fizzled as I kept reading. I couldn‘t really connect to any of the characters, and felt like not a whole lot was happening. Such a shame, because I feel like it had some good potential.
This is my last book of 2022…Happy New Year to all and happy reading in the new year! 🥳
2nd and Charles comin in hot today with buy 5 get 5 free! I‘m ready for the new year now 🤓
Any suggestions for those who may host swaps in February? I think I may be addicted to them now haha 😆 Thanks all!
This was the absolute perfect book to read for this time of the year, when emotions and stress run a bit high from holidays. This book was perfect, and was a cozy Christian hygge book to help grow in God while we rest. So glad to have received this from the Jolabokaflod swap!
I had my first bad experience at B&N yesterday. Me and my 4 year old were looking at books in an aisle and he was on my hip resting his head on my shoulder. I hear a girl behind us (late teens, early twenties) say “Ew, don‘t let him touch me.” She was talking to her boyfriend looking at my son. I turned around, and kept browsing anyway. And as she passed me, she shook her Starbucks drink at my son like he was a curse and made nasty faces to him.
Thank you so much for my #jolabokaflod package! This one has been on my TBR for a while, and it‘s perfect for the Christmas season! Happy Christmas Eve!
Some fun new fabrics! I‘ll be making more book sleeves and reading pillows out of these lovelies to be featured on my Etsy shop 💕😊
Spent the weekend at #kalahari resort, and what a fun time with the family! Didn‘t get too much reading time in, but certainly was a mini trip to remember ❤️🎄
It‘s here!! My #jokabokaflod had arrived this morning, now to wait until the 24th to open! So tempting 😜
I‘m really enjoying this buddy read hosted by @megnews 📚 I‘ve always had a fascination with Little House, and loved the shows. I have all the seasons, and it warms my heart to read these beautiful classics!
I will be out of town Saturday through Monday. If your jolabokaflod package comes on one of those days and I don‘t post it‘s arrival, that‘s why. Just wanted to let you know so you don‘t fret if I don‘t post about it right away. 📚🎄Have a merry Christmas #jolabokaflod mystery person!
I tried, but I couldn‘t do it. I‘m making it a thing in 2023 for me where I stop reading books I‘m not enjoying. I usually force myself to finish, but I‘m realizing life is too short to read books I don‘t enjoy…and this is one of them. Oh well, onto the next one!
The hubs bought me new combat boots, and look at what‘s on them 😍 #totalwin
Starting tonight 😬
I hate to admit, I have high expectations because I still have a book hangover from my previous read 🤷🏻♀️
What a great book! The only regret I have is waiting too long to get to it on my tbr, because this story didn‘t disappoint at all. I loved all the characters, and the love story each one possessed. The historical aspect behind it was well written and researched.
My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Diving into the Book of Ecclesiastes this morning ✝️
