Can't Wait Wedneday-The Bookseller's Promise

Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. Typically they are books that have not been released yet. This week I am sharing The Bookseller's Promise by Beth Wiseman. It is the first book in The Amish Bookstore series, it releases April 19, 2022.

Top Ten Tuesday-Cover Love

Happy Tuesday my bookish friends!! I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas weekend! I did. I am now at my sister's house in TN, so not a lot of time to do a post. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is your favorite reads of 2021 and since I don't have a lot of time today, I will do that topic on Thursday. You can see all the details at That Artsy Reader Girl. Since I am also  participating in the Top 10 of 2021 hosted by Kimberly Faye Reads, I will do today's topic, which is cover love. The topic for Thursday is top reads of 2021, which is why I will do that one then 😀 You can see all the details at That Artsy Reader Girl. However, before I get into today's post I would love to take a minute to thank The Story Enthusiast and Ashley@therusticreadinggal for being Santa and sending me a book 😀 I was beyond thrilled to receive them!

My Review:

I have not read Ginny Baird before but will be reading her again! I absolutely adored this story with all the Christmas feels. I read quite a few Christmas stories this year and this one is one of my top favorites.

Christmas Challenge update

I decided to join the #20booksforChristmas challenge. This was my first year joining in all the fun 😀 This challenge was hosted by Tea & Cake for the Soul.

2021 New-to-me Authors

Today I am participating in the Top 10 of 2021 hosted by Kimberly Faye Reads. Today's topic is new or new-to-me authors. Well, hang on to your hats because this is going to be a long list. I made it a point to try new authors this year and I can guarantee you that I have NEVER read so many new-to-me authors in a year. I was trying to do the 2021 challenge by Cara Novack Lynch that had 75 topics, which helped to increase my new-to-me authors. Plus, I follow the Avid Readers of Christian Fiction Facebook group and they ALWAYS have great recommendations. I honestly had no idea there were SO many Christian authors that write in a wide variety of genres before joining this group. Of course, once I started this book blog I was introduced to even more authors (thank you!!).

Books I Wish I had read this year

 MERRY CHRISTMAS

Today I am participating in the Top 10 of 2021 hosted by Kimberly Faye Reads. Today's topic is books I wish I had made time to read in 2021. While I did read a ton of books this year (246 so far) there were still quite a few that I wish I had gotten around to. All of these I either checked out of the library and didn't actually get to them or I heard so much about them that I kept saying I was going to read them!
