I just want to say I love your channel because it is just so wholesome and a refuge from all of the crazy things in the world. It's so nice to not be alone in wanting to avoid negative content. Thank you for not being afraid to stand for your beliefs! You're such a light! ☺️
haha the sheepish grin/look at the beginning when you're explaining how many books you got lolllllll also! have you ever been able to visit Baker Book House?! it's suuuuch a fun/cool experience!
They really are so pretty!! 😍 I hope to read This Life of Mine very soon! (Finally!) 💗 I’m excited about Dare, but now I don’t know which series to read first…Dare or Resistance! 🤪😁
I gasped outloud when I saw Dare😂 If I'm remembering right I don't think the first book takes place in winter the whole time. I think it's just for the first part of the book. I've been trying to get my hands on that series for so long! I can't really find them anywhere except amazon, but I want to get the whole series in one shot, so I've been waiting for the right time to spend the money. I might have to just bite the bullet lol.
Ah, I love your videos! They're so much fun :) And make me feel right at home like you've invited us into your world. Love it! As to the books... Protector (Megan Schaulis) and Trust the Stars (Tricia Goyer) were both incredible! I couldn't put them down. Very different books but yeah, amazing. A Game of Hearts (Joanna Barker) was another one I loved. Also, I definitely have to move Cinder Luna up my TBR list now! As to Heart of a Princess, aww! Thank you! I was super worried about writing Alina's story because soooo many people hated her in the first book (me included!) but she's beautiful. Promise :) She just hides her fears behind a mask of indifference. I think you'll really like it :) Happy reading! And thanks again for sharing!
My friend and I have been having bad book, mm, success, of Thriftbooks lately as well. Either sending the wrong books (twice), or damaged books when they were supposed to be in really good condition.
What an amazing book haul!🤩 I got excited to see the Circle C Beginnings book.😂 I enjoy all of the Circle C books! I just ordered Season of My Enemy from Christian Book! They had some of that series on sale so I also picked up Mrs. Witherspoon Goes to War and Escape from Amsterdam. I really enjoyed The Cryptographer's Dilemma and On My Honor so I'm hoping I enjoy these too!
Heehee, I know you love Andi! Every time I see those series, I think of you! 🥰😁 Oooh, I saw that sale and might have picked up a couple too 👀😁 I hope the rest of the series is good too! 🥰
Oh my gosh the Barbie films were great! I didn't watch the more recent ones like Charm School and such but yeah! Loved them! I am really interested in the fairytale retellings!
@LindseyfromBFCG They really are!! I remember as a kid I was given the Barbie in the Nutcracker on VHS in a gift box that (if I'm remembering correctly) had the Clara doll! I'm wistful just thinking about it! 🫠🥰
Ooh, I just won 'Protector' in a giveaway and am excited to both try that myself and then also hear your thoughts! And then I've had my eyes on 'Trust the Stars', 'Recorder' and 'Love and Other Great Expectations' for a while now, so I'm very interested to see what you think of those.
Oh, if you don't like water books, just FYI, there's a lot of diving in Bridge of Gold. But, if I remember correctly, it was historical diving (so I found it interesting) and underwater archaeology (also interesting).
I'm not a fan of water either and don't like the cover of the Killing Tide. It wasn't my fave book by Dani Pettrey. I did really enjoy her Chesapeake Valor series. ... I'm also not a fan of Alaska settings and there are so many suspense books set there.
I just finished "A Proper Scandel" which is book one in the Hatch series you picked up, A Proper Charade is book two I think. Just a warning, I gave it 2 stars, because there was a lot of men wanting to accost Grace throughout the story it was like the whole synopsis of the book was Grace is too beautiful so men all go animal on her or around her. Yikes. And her biggest predator was her creepy uncle. It was just a big no. A Bridge of Gold by Kimberly Woodhouse was entertaining enough. I think I gave it 3.5 stars, it was clean.
Do you have any tips for Alibris with shipping? I fine great deals ,but also end up paying so much it shipping it doubles the amount so I never follow through 🫣
Hi Tabitha! So sorry for the delay in responding to you! I’ve found to only buy books through them that have the free shipping icon by the book. Then when you go to check out they love to give you a good scare that shipping is a ridiculous amount, but if you continue to go through the checkout, it will remove it before you place your order. But, yes! It’s definitely a scare seeing that shipping charge! Elsewise for used books, you can buy books from the same seller and I believe it will discount the total shipping cost, but I’ve only bought new books from there. 💕

I love watching archery in the Olympics too! I'll have to try that book if it has archery in it.
Yes!! I’ve read it recently and it was SO good! A little kissy in a couple spots, but I really enjoyed the rest of it! 🥰💗

Aww, thank you SO much for your sweet comment and encouraging words! That means so much to me! 💗💗💗
@@LindseyfromBFCG No problem!
Princess Charm School is so good!!! I can literally still hum the little tune they sing to figure out the code for the vault door. 😂😂
Oh my goodness!! I’m impressed! 😂😂
The Blades of Acktar series is so good! I highly recommend reading it!
I’m really looking forward to that series! I’ve heard such good things! 🥰💗
The Liberty Letters books look interesting, particularly Escape on the Underground Railroad.
It really does! I will definitely report on how it is! 😁
All of my high hopes were met with Dare! 1:14:51
It is so good! I can’t wait to see what you think!!!
Aww, yay!! I’m really looking forward to reading this series! 😁💗
haha the sheepish grin/look at the beginning when you're explaining how many books you got lolllllll
also! have you ever been able to visit Baker Book House?! it's suuuuch a fun/cool experience!
Such a guilty look 😂
No, I haven’t but it looks like such a dangerous place, hahaha! 😁💗
Double take ❤really enjoyed it
Can’t wait for book two! 🥳
Tracking Tilly ❤excited to read it
Yay! So glad that we both enjoyed it! 💗💗💗
I've never heard of the Liberty Letters series before. I'd love to read them as well.
Me too!
Melanie Cellier’s books have such gorgeous covers
This life of mine was soo good
The blades of Acktar!!! 😱😱🔥🔥❤️❤️
They really are so pretty!! 😍
I hope to read This Life of Mine very soon! (Finally!) 💗

Ooh, that’s great to know about the setting, thank you! You might check out Alibris for them, I think they have them in paperback and hardback!

Right?! It‘s so disappointing! 🙁
I loved Liberty Letters as a kid! They aren't connected or anything, so you can totally read them out of order.
Oooh, that’s great to know, thank you, Morgan!!
What an amazing book haul!🤩

Please let us know about Liberty Letters books. I am immediately intrigued!
I definitely will! I need to start them soon! 💗
You have picked up a lot of great books. Trust the Stars was excellent and so was Protector.
That’s great to hear! I’m super excited for those two especially! 😁🥰
Oh my gosh the Barbie films were great! I didn't watch the more recent ones like Charm School and such but yeah! Loved them! I am really interested in the fairytale retellings!
They are such classics and so nostalgic! 😁🥰

@mollypopplewell1655 awww, that’s so sweet! 💗
58:27 fellow Texan! Love to hear it. Not me browsing baker book house website now 🤣
Hi fellow Texan! 👋🏻😁 Happy shopping, haha! 💗😁
I listened to the audiobook of Season of My Enemy and really enjoyed it! I hope you like it!
That’s great to hear, Marianne! I’m looking forward to reading it! 🥰💗
Soooo many books!!!! You’ve got a problem, girl! 😜😂🥰
Hahaha, right?! 🤪🤪🤪
So weird! I actually read those two Letters of Liberty books! They were pretty good from what I remember.
Oooh, that’s great to hear! I’m excited to read them…at some point, haha! 😁
I'm hoping to read Blades of Acktar soon!
Me too! It looks like a fall/winter book to me. 😉😁
I just bought Season of My Enemy, too! 😂😂😂
I hope we like it! 😁💗
Ooh, I just won 'Protector' in a giveaway and am excited to both try that myself and then also hear your thoughts! And then I've had my eyes on 'Trust the Stars', 'Recorder' and 'Love and Other Great Expectations' for a while now, so I'm very interested to see what you think of those.
Oooh, yay!! 😁🥰🥳
I'm waiting on the paperback of Guardian to come out, but it's taking forever 😭
It always seems like it takes forever when you’re anticipating it! 😭
I added way too many books to my TBR after watching this LOL
Hahaha, that’s part of the best part about watching book hauls! 😁😉💕
Dare 😱😱😱😱🎉🙌🏻❤️
But now the question is…which to read first? Dare or Resistance? 😜😁
So many 😍🤩
A ridiculous amount 😂
I enjoyed Bridge of Gold, and I don't remember much content. But don't hold me to that. 😂😂
Oh, if you don't like water books, just FYI, there's a lot of diving in Bridge of Gold. But, if I remember correctly, it was historical diving (so I found it interesting) and underwater archaeology (also interesting).
I don’t mind some water books, it’s just not a selling point to me, haha! But thank you for the heads up, Morgan! 😁💗
I'm not a fan of water either and don't like the cover of the Killing Tide. It wasn't my fave book by Dani Pettrey. I did really enjoy her Chesapeake Valor series. ... I'm also not a fan of Alaska settings and there are so many suspense books set there.
So good to hear your thoughts, Jane! That’s neat how similar we are on them! 🥰💗
Chiara is the Italian form of the name Claire and is pronounced Key-AAR-ah.
Oh! Thank you so much! What a pretty name and pronunciation! 💗

Ahh, thank you so much for that heads up! I so appreciate it! Hmm…might not read that one now. 😬
Glad to hear the other book is better! 💕
So funny you’re going to force your dad to watch all the Barbie movies! 🤣 (and no go on the live action one, I heard it’s AWFUL!!!!)
Hahaha, he’s thrilled about this idea, as you can imagine! 😁😜 (right?! I think I only hear one or two people talk good about it!)
