QOTD: what are you up to today?

I am taking full advantage of Gus’ new haircut and taking a ton of pictures of him like any good #dogmom would. And we are also getting lots of reading in. I’m taking part in the #read500pages challenge this weekend. I just started loathe at first sight and I’m enjoying it so far.

QOTD: What are your weekend plans?

I plan on participating in the #reading500pages reading challenge and hanging out with my newly groomed puppy Gus! (I will be sharing pictures of his grooming in a little while 😍

Today I wanted to share a mini book review for a book that I recently read and LOVED!
.
.
.
Sword of the Seven Sins is the first book in a young adult fantasy romance series by Emily Colin. I loved this book so much you guys! I want the second book in my hands right now. My very next read is going to be the free prequel novella (more information on that below my review) This book was so interesting, and I can't wait for the second book. Sword of Seven Sins is the perfect read for fans of fantasy, romance, science fiction and dystopian novels because this unique world blends all of those genres quite well!

.

In Sword of the Seven Sins, we meet our main characters, Eva and Ari. I loved the both of them so much! Their romance and their feelings for each other is one of the main focuses on the story, which you all know is my personal reading preference. But here, it actually fits in so well with the story line. The world that Emily Colin has created is super interesting and unique. It is a harsh dystopian like punishment structure, but here punishments are not only super harsh (like being exiled or killed) but they crimes and sins are centered around the Seven Deadly Sins and the Seven Virtues. In this world, the virtues are what one person should embody at all times, and the Seven deadly sins must be avoided at all costs. So to circle back to Eva and Ari- lust is one of the seven deadly sins, and in this world love and lust are forbidden. I was completely in love with their forbidden romance! I want to read about it over and over again!

QOTD: What is your favorite animal?

I love foxes and dogs! A fox plays a role in a book that releases next month that I am super excited about.

summary:
. Cerys is safe in the kingdom of Aloriya.
.
Here there are no droughts, disease, or famine, and peace is everlasting. It has been this way for hundreds of years, since the first king made a bargain with the Lady who ruled the forest that borders the kingdom. But as Aloriya prospered, the woods grew dark, cursed, and forbidden. Cerys knows this all too well: when she was young, she barely escaped as the woods killed her friends and her mother. Now Cerys carries a small bit of the curse—the magic—in her blood, a reminder of the day she lost everything. The most danger she faces now, as a gardener’s daughter, is the annoying fox who stalks the royal gardens and won’t leave her alone.
.
As a new queen is crowned, however, things long hidden in the woods descend on the kingdom itself. Cerys is forced on the run, her only companions the small fox from the garden, a strange and powerful bear, and the magic in her veins. It’s up to her to find the legendary Lady of the Wilds and beg for a way to save her home. But the road is darker and more dangerous than she knows, and as secrets from the past are uncovered amid the teeth and roots of the forest, it’s going to take everything she has just to survive.

📚Mini Review📚

All This Time is a young adult contemporary romance by Mikki Daughtry and Rachael Lippincott. All this Time is an emotional read. It sent me on a roller-coaster of emotions. there were some very high highs and some pretty sad and tough lows, but all in all I really enjoyed reading this novel. If you are a fan of contemporary young adult stories that cover a wide array of emotions, I think All This Time will be a book that you will want to check out..

My husband and I are building our house and we got to design it! So obviously I had to include a library. We are building it in a 2nd floor loft space and I am doing floor to ceiling built ins with a ladder and some cool light scones. And we are building two little reading nook as well. I’m super excited to see it come to life. I put the section of our house plans if you swipe so you can get a sneak peek. I plan on sharing the progress as the house and library gets built so let me know if you are interested in that? Right now the majority of my books are in boxes waiting to be unboxed in my new library!

Today I have a mini review of a historical fiction mystery (with a dash of supernatural) and a giveaway for a copy of the book over at my blog (link in bio)
.
.
.
The Fire in the Glass is a historical fiction mystery by new to me author Jacquelyn Benson. I loved The Fire in the Glass! It takes place in London in the year 1914, and it is about a psychic that is trying to solve and stop a serial killer. The plot of The Fire in the Glass was fascinating and I loved the historical backdrop of London as the setting of our mystery. If you are a fan of mysteries or of historical fiction, this book was a total hidden gem for me. Check it out! I think you will love it!

.

In The Fire in the Glass we meet our main character Lily. Lily can see visions of the future, but it is not all glitz and glam for her. Lately she has been haunted by witnessing murder before they happen. But when she sees the vision of her friend being murdered, she knows she needs to do something. So she sets off to try and hunt down the killer before they can strike again! I love the premise of the story, but more than everything else, I love Lily! She is fierce and strong and determined. All in all, she is an excellent heroine for our story, and it was so easy for me to relate to her and root for her.

.

If you are a fan of historical fiction, with mystery and some supernatural elements woven in, then I think you will really enjoy The Fire in the Glass took me by surprise in the best way. I am so hoping for more of Lily's adventures! I have more questions that I need answers to!
