I am so excited to join the summer book club and just ordered Love Overboard this morning! I also and going to check out Denise Hunter book, those look great also. The pics in The American Spirit are wonderful, will be on the hunt to find that book. Thanks for the great video!

The American Spirit book is lovely. I am not an artist AT ALL so I am amazed at those paintings. So glad you enjoyed. SO glad you are here! 💙
I didn’t realize books a million supported our troops. Now I will make a point to shop there more.
I had no idea either until I started visiting one at the end of last year. They were sending books to troops then. The last two times I've been in this year, they have been sending yummy coffee to the troops. There is signage on the front doors, within the stores, AND they ask you if you'd like to send the coffee when you are purchasing your stash. When I bought these books this time, I was able to write a little encouraging note to send along with the coffee. Absolutely sold me on Books A Million! Spread the Word! 💙💙
@@OldeAmericanSpirit that’s so cool. We don’t have any near us, but I’ve bought from them online.
I didn't know this either, good to know!!🇺🇸
Yes, mam! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
Such a great haul. Loved all the kids library books! I need to read 1776. I think I have a copy.
Thank you, friend! I have A LOT to get 'reading' since I just finished May's TBR. [hehe] I've heard a lot about that 1776 author and book. Can't wait! Let me know if you start reading it this month!
Good to know that Books A Million supports our troops! ❤
I know!!! I was so thrilled to find that out. It's the only BIG bookstore near me and I love it. Isn't that wonderful?!
I've been enjoying your channel, my first time commenting though. I like the clean read aspect!
I'm also a redhead 💙... I started following you on Goodreads as I just joined. My only form of social media besides UA-cam.
Until next time, happy reading 📚
Ah, June, your message means so much to me. Thank you for commenting here AND following on Goodreads.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one that likes to keep reading clean. It's such a comfort.
Those redheads are special! 💙
UA-cam and Goodreads are my only social media too! Kindred spirits.
Until next time, [hehe] 💙💙💙
Jill Eileen Smith is one of my favorite biblical fiction authors. You have to check out Mesu Andrews for biblical fiction as well. 😊
Oh, Yay. Good to know. I've always avoided biblical fiction because I wasn't sure about writers taking too much liberty with scripture or being inaccurate. But I was VERY impressed with Jill's writing. It made me want to dig into those specific scriptures even more. Win-Win! I will have to check out Mesu too if you like her! Thank you!
@@OldeAmericanSpirit your welcome! Mesu Andrews has a wonderful testimony, she actually did not like biblical fiction and said she would never write it. Well God knew differently🤣.
@@paperbacksandponytails That is amazing! Thanks for sharing that, Katie. Will mean even more as I'm reading her work.
@@OldeAmericanSpirit your welcome. I got to meet her last year, she is just the sweetest!
I went to your Goodreads page to send you a note and I saw that it was set to private... so I went to UA-cam. Just wanted to say hello 🤗👋. Hope you are doing well!
Oh goodness! I was messing around with settings the other day to set up the Summer Book Club group. I just fixed it!! You can send me a message on GR now! Hello, friend! It's hot as blue blazes where I am in the south - whew - SO hot and no rain. All the grass and my flowers are cryin.' I've been having excellent reading days!💙
Daughter of Eden I’ve had my eye on that one👏🏾
reading it right now -- ahhhh - the chapters about the angels in the Unseen Realm… 😍😮😮😮😮
Love that American Spirit book!!
Isn’t it gorgeous?!
I like Sarah E. Ladd's books!
So good to know. I have bought 'The Letter from Briarton Park' and now the 'Hollythorne' one. The covers are always so dreamy - pulls me in every time. Which ones have you read?
@@OldeAmericanSpirit The Heiress of Winterwood, The Headmistress of Rosemere, and The Governess of Penwythe Hall!
@@MorgansEndlessBookshelf ooooooo, those sounds amazing!!
All the books 💜💜💜💜
Hehe. I got a lil carried away, didn’t I?! Since then… I’ve been to the library and have 10 more!! 🙃😃
I think I have that choose your adventure Titanic book!
oh, neat. I thought it looked so cool.
I’m excited about the book club! I am a seasonal reader as well and I’m ready for a beach read. I heard about Strawberry Girl on Kate Howe’s channel and thought it’d be a fun vintage read. I love strawberries z! 🍓 That painting of the lady in the chair had a Rockwell feel to it. If you read Becoming Mrs. Lewis I might like to read along with you. Loved your book haul!
Yay!! I'm so excited too! The seasonal mood vibe is so powerful, isn't it? As each new season approaches, it gets me more excited to read than anything.
That's awesome about Strawberry Girl. I will have to look Kate Howe up.
Yes to the Rockwell feel!
I would love to read Becoming Mrs Lewis with you. Are you on Goodreads? Maybe you can "friend" me (if you haven't already, and we can chat there)!
Thank you for hanging out here, new friend!!
💙💙
I was thinking about starting 'Mrs. Lewis' today. Are you game? Are we already friends on Goodreads where I can message you?
@@OldeAmericanSpirit I think we are Goodreads friends. I’m reading a little slower right now since I’m doing longer Bible readings for my other challenge. Will that be a problem? With the weekend I will have more time though.
@ReadJournalLove completely fine! I will be reading slower too since I have so many going at once & with ‘Love Overboard’ starting Wednesday. I looked for you with your channel name but couldn’t find you. Will try again!
@@OldeAmericanSpirit I just use my name on Goodreads. Cathryn Clark. I saw it’s on Hoopla, so I’ll start after work today. Yay!
Ooh, Winter by the Sea! I want to get to that one!
YES! Julie Klassen! So you've already read 'Sisters of Sea View?'
@@OldeAmericanSpirit Yes! Loved it! The Austen references were wonderful!
@@MorgansEndlessBookshelf oh my! Can’t wait!!
Oh, my! That Mort Künstler art book! 😍
Isn’t it amazing?!
Love book hauls! Oh, I'm sad I won't be able to participate in the book club reading. My library doesn't have that book. They did have Bookshop by the Sea though, so I'll be reading that book all by my lonesome. LOL
Just a heads up about the book 1491 it is an evolution environmental propaganda book. 1776 is good and I'd recommend An Artist in Treason: The Extraordinary Double Life of General James Wilkinson by Andro Linklater and then Valiant Ambition by Nathaniel Philbrick. It's amazing the colonists won. Seriously, amazing. My son says I need to read Washington by Ron Chernow next. (it's a door stopper! LOL)
I have added 1775 to my tbr. Thank you. I had never heard of it.
I will reserve my thoughts on Becoming Mrs. Lewis until you've read it.
Happy reading. I hope your book club is a lot of fun.
Thank you So much for your thoughts, warnings, and recs!
I’m sad you can’t join the book club, but totally understand. I will be reading Bookshop this month also. Feel free to message me on Goodreads when you are about to start!
I appreciate you ❤️
Amazing haul!!
Thank you so much, friend!! I get WAY too excited about these. 😊
Interested to hear what you think of 1775 and 1776!
Certainly! I’m excited about those. May start 1775 now & save 1776 for July 4th! 💙🇺🇸❤️
I always look forward to your videos. I’m very excited about the book club, waiting for approval on Goodreads.
You are just the sweetest, Susan! I mean it! I'm confused about the Goodreads group. I can not find ANY notifications where anyone has tried to join. It makes me wonder how many have tried and are waiting!!! ekkk - so I just made it public. Can you try again and let me know if it works? You can message me here or a private one on Goodreads. Thanks so much!💙
It let me join, no problems. From what I can tell, there are 2 members, you and I.
@@susanfryman5156 Yay! I fear that others tried and I can't find any notifications! I guess I should have left it public - all new at the Goodreads groups. Oh Well, even if it's just you and me, we'll have SO much fun! 💙
Even if set to private, you should still receive notifications. On the group home page, in desktop mode, they would be linked to the bell icon in the upper right. (If using desktop on a tablet, be sure to hold in landscape position). If they aren't there, it might be a GR glitch.
@@ThisLittleLightLife thank you for this. Yes, it's so weird - I have searched and searched and there are absolutely no notifications. Must be a glitch for sure.
I have read Becoming Mrs. Lewis and really enjoyed it!
Be cautious about 1491. I have not heard good things about it.
So glad to hear you liked Mrs. Lewis. I'm so curious. Thank you for the warning - Good to know about 1491. I appreciate it so much. What did you hear about it?
@@OldeAmericanSpirit It is a rewriting of history. As much as you seem to like history, I think you will want to focus on more accurate books.
@@hsmom3120 oh, wow. You are correct. Thanks for clarifying for my curious self! I want accurate for sure.
I also found a hard copy of 1776 at a library sale years ago. Sadly, I've never read it.
Now I'm torn between Jane Austen July and starting 1776 for July 4th🤷
Oooooo, a hardcover! We truly ARE kindred spirits, because I was just thinking a couple hours ago about which patriotic books I wanted to be sure to finish in July in honor of our freedom. The 1776 book is top o’ the list. And I’m also doing Jane Austen July! You know what this means…
we have to do both! 💙🇺🇸🫖
@@OldeAmericanSpirit hahaha, I will try, I work outside the home...
@@junewood3012 And most of Jane's are not especially short. We can try! :)
Great haul!!
Thank you,my friend. I am having way too much fun!!
