Top Ten Tuesday-Buy Worthy Books

 Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books I Loved So Much I Had to Get a Copy for My Personal Library (Submitted by Alecia @ The Staircase Reader). This should be fairly simple for me as I can think of a few books I have added over the last few years for this exact reason 😀 The hard part will be narrowing it down 😂 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.

June Reading Wrap-up

Happy July, my bookish friends!!! I can't believe the year is half over! How was your reading this month? I had a pretty good month of reading.

I actually did something I never do=I RE-read 3 books this month!!! They were all 5 stars the first time and again the second 😉 I read 17 books this month and dnf 1. Click on the cover of the book if you want to read my review. (I do not put the books on these posts there were under 3 stars).

Find Your People

Title: Find Your People: Building Deep Community in a Lonely World

Author: Jennie Allen

Genre: Self-help, Christian Nonfiction, Christian Living

Publisher: Waterbrook

Source: Library/Own

My review:

I will start by saying while this is Christian nonfiction, it is not preachy. Jennie's answers aren't "find God" or "go to Church" or anything like that. This book is helpful for anyone who is lonely, whether spiritual/Christian or not.

Stacking the Shelves #26, Sunday Post #23, Sunday Salon #18

Hey bookish friends! How are things going for you? Not much going on here, still not feeling wonderful. I am going to take advantage of not having any plans and work on reading and
blogging this weekend 😁

Stacking the Shelves #25, Sunday Post #22, Sunday Salon #17

Hey bookish friends! How are things going for you? I am supposed to be at the lake with my family and youth group today, but I have another stinkin' viral infection. The doctor said I could go if I wore a mask whole time. Not thanks, that is not fun in this heat.

It's Monday! What are you reading? #3

It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, and are planning to read over the week. It’s a great post to organize yourself. It’s an opportunity to visit and comment and add to your TBR pile! This meme started on J Kaye’s blog and then was hosted by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at The Book Date.

Anything

 Title: Anything: The Prayer That Unlocked My God and My Soul

Author: Jennie Allen

Publisher: Thomas Nelson

Genre: Christian Nonfiction, Self-help, Prayer

Source: Own

My Review:

Anything: The Prayer That Unlocked My God and My Soul is a book about surrendering to God. Not just the things that are comfortable and easy, but even the hard things that will challenge you to your very core.

Get Out of Your Head

 Title: Get Out of Your Head

Author: Jennie Allen

Publisher: Waterbrook

Genre: Christian Living, Christian Nonfiction, Bible Study

Source: I own it

My review:

 Do you ever feel like your thoughts are spiraling out of control? You have one stray thought and then another and before you know it you have spiraled so far down the rabbit trail that you wonder how you got there? Yea, me either 😔 If we're honest, we all have. Jennie Allen has written this book to help us stop spiraling into the pit of toxic thoughts.

TTT-Stranded on a desert island

 Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday! I hope you are off to a great start to your week. This week’s topic features books that I would want with me if I were stranded on a desert island. Since I do not typically read a book over and over again, I will pick some of the books that have been on my to-be-read list for quite a while. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what books others would want if they were stranded on an island.

My Bible-if I am going to be stranded anywhere I would need my Bible for the hope and encouragement it would give me!

Get Out of Your Head by Jennie Allen-I would also need help with my thought life.
