Q U E S T I O N S

_____________________

Let's start with The Sunshine Blogger Tag.

1//  What was the last movie you watched (and enjoyed)?
I haven't watched an amazing movie in a long time, but probably the last one was Little Dorrit, the BBC 14-episode TV series. Ahhh, it was so good!! ^-^

2// Favorite Summer-y food?

That's a hard one!! Perhaps nectarines. They have such a summer-y delicious taste and I could eat so many! :P

3// Last adventure you had?

Hmm, I'm not sure. I don't travel a lot, so probably when we went to a Heritage Park back in August which was quite fun and I got to see some of my best friends! ^.^

4// Roadtrip's or Airplanes?

I've never actually been on an airplane, but I think I would prefer roadtrip's because of seeing all the places along the way! And all the scenery! 

5// What are your dream wedding colors?

Umm, I don't know! I haven't given much thought to it.  I think perhaps gold and navy for a fall/winter wedding and for a spring/summer wedding, I think light green, a pale pink and a dusty rose would be nice.

6// What song have you had on repeat?

Look Up Child by Lauren Daigle.

And also, No Such Thing and Speechless by Dan + Shay, I love their music so much! 

7// Girly-girl or tomboy?

I'm definitely more of a tom-boy! ;) I hate shopping for clothes, and I'm not really the type that cares about clothes or what I'm wearing. xD

8// First celebrity crush?

Seriously, I have NEVER had a celebrity crush! That would kind of be weird. xP Sorry If I offend anyone! xD 

9// Top three favorite blogs?

Rebekah Ashleigh

Between The Page's Of This Bookish Life

Storie's By Firefly

And so many more!

10// How long ago did you start your blog?

February 2018. It's going to be my first blog-i-versary in a  few months and I'm really excited!

11// How do you feel you've grown since starting your blog?

I feel like I format the posts better and have learned to write decent blog posts that will keep the readers attention. And I had a few bad looking blog day's but I finally created my own design even though it took several evenings to redesign it. I love how it turned out though! I've also learned that everyone doesn't have the same opinion of certain  books as me and I don't need to yell at them if-they-rated-The-Orphan's-Wish-one-star xD xD Mostly on Goodreads. xP

So, I'm going to follow Shantelle's lead and not do the rules properly and just use the same questions. Sorry! I have another tag to do guys!\

I'm going to tag. . .

Hannah

and 

Rebekah Ashleigh 

You don't have to do this tag--I won't be in any way offended! :DD

---------------------------------

Now onto the Hello September Tag, hahah, It's almost October now 0.o xD

1// Windy or Rainy Autumn?

Ooh. I don't like it when its cold and wet outside so probably windy. ;D

2// What's one thing that makes it feel like fall to you?

All the pumpkin stuff, and Pumpkin Spice Lattes. AHH!

3// Tea or Coffee?

A few months ago I would have said "Tea all the way!" Nowww, I would have to say I very much indeed prefer coffee. I do love both though and instead of having a lovely mug of coffee this morning I'm having tea for once. ;D But, overall, I do dearly love coffee with a bit of cream and sugar. ^-^

4// If you could go to one state in the USA just for the autumn scenery, where would you go? 

I think, like Rebekah, Pennsylvania would be nice. I love to see all the Amish Farmland with the pretty fall colors, it would be so lovely! 

5// Do you like pumpkin flavored stuff? If so, what's your favorite thing?

YUSSS. PSL's for sure. And also I love Pumpkin Sugar Cookies!! 

                                   6// What color of leave's do you like best?
Orange-y-red ones! We just have yellow and light orange ones here but I do love dark orange and light red ones!

 7// If you could go to another country for the autumn scenery, where would you go?
SWITERLAND. YUS. It would be so lovely to stay in a chalet and enjoyed the gorgeous fall scenery!!

8// Sweater or Hoodie?

Ahhh, I do love hoodies sm. but sweaters are nice too. I love oversized hoodies best!

9// A Pumpkin Spice or Apple Cinnamon candle?
Well, I was at a store a few weeks ago and I smelt this Apple Cinnamon candle and it smelt SO BAD. Like chemicals. xD But I think a better smelling one would be nice!  I would go with pumpkin spice bc I LOVEEEE Pumpkin Spice sm!! ^.^

10// Cookie's or Brownies?
Hmm. Probably cookies. brownies are good but right now in the morning they do not sound good at all. xP

-------

I'm not going to tag anyone since it's almost October but if you want to do it, go ahead!! :DD

Thanks fro reading! What are you thoughts of fall? Yay or Nay??

{ Summer Promise by Robin Jones Gunn Review // Victoria's Book Nook }

The long awaited review has arriveddddd!!  [ Long waited as in two-three weeks. xD ] Today, I'm going to be reviewing a favorite book, Summer Promise by Robin Jones Gunn.

Robin Jones Gunn actually just released audiobooks for the first three Christy Miller: High School Years and I excitedly checked the first one out on our e-library app.

The Audiobook Cover.

The narrator was perfect for Summer Promise. She had the same voice I would imagine Christy having, so I thoroughly enjoyed it on that note!

Surprisingly enough, I got a lot more out of it then when I read it! I reread it in February and now as I listen to it, I feel like I missed so many parts! When I first read the Christy Miller Collection One, Christy seemed a bit whiny and annoying, but she grew up a lot going into the series.

The book starts off with Christy in California, where she's staying with her Aunt and Uncle. I love the setting! It's a really unique story!

Summer Promise [ and the rest of the High School years ] deals with some hard topic's such as drugs, when Christy is invited to a party without knowing it wasn't her typical kind of party and encounters several people doing drugs and she is horrified and leaves the party.
Later, the same night of the party, Todd's friend Shawn is out of it and ends up crashing into the jetty and killing himself. Christy's friend, Alissa also has a baby out of wedlock which sounds terrible, but Alissa turns her life totally around later in the series and it's actually used for good to direct Alissa to God.

Tracey was also such a sweet awesome character that I LOVED and she easily became a favorite character!

There are many lessons in this book, about making wise choices that are honorable and smart. Throughout the book Christy learns many things about the world and life and I liked how it taught Christy many lesson's I don't usually see in book these days!

This was a Christian Fiction book published by Bethany House, and I felt it was one of their best ones that had a good inspiring message that I often don't see in their books anymore!
One of my favorite parts was when, Christy and Todd go to Disney Land for her birthday, I thought it was just a fun part of the book. I also liked that Christy wasn't perfect and lost her temper and had haughty or rude thoughts but later correct herself.

One thing I didn't like was that Todd basically had a halo hanging over his head, he seemed PERFECT with a Capital P. Buttttt keep reading in the series y'all bc sometime he acts like a total idiot and grates on your nerves! I also wasn't sure what to think of all the negative content, but I  liked that Robin Jones Gunn encountered the world and didn't shield the characters from it and make them have perfect lives.

-------

Summer Promise Overall Rating: 4.5/5 stars.

Anyways, in a few weeks, I'm going to read the next two books, A Whisper and A Wish and Yours Forever. Sorry for such a long rambly review, I feel like my thoughts were really scattered with this one!

{ What's Up With My 2018 Reading Challenge?! 0.0 // Victoria's Book Nook }

YAY YOU CLICKED THIS POST. 

Okayyyyy, Hey Y'alllllll! I was absolutely clueless on a post for today and I FINALLY decided on a post. WHAt's Up WIth My 2018 Reading Challenge....Am I Behind Or Ahead?? And this is kind of a twist on the Mid Year Freakout Tag...xD 

Wellll. I am actually ahead by THIRTY TWO BOOKS. WHATTTTT. My overall reading challenge was to read 120 books this year and I'm at 109 books so far this year. Huh. That's weird bc I read like 120 last year and wasn't ahead thisss muchhh. I'm really hoping to hit 150 or 160 by the end of the year tho and review a bunch of books. Anywaysss, onto the Q+A part . . .

WHATS YOUR FAVE SERIES OF 2018 SO FAR.

 e a s y  p e a s y.  The Millie Keith: A Life Of Faith series by Martha Finley, Revised by Kersten Hamilton. SO AMAZING Y'ALL. And I am so incredibly sad bc I just need the last two books and I'll have the entire series but they are OH SO EXPENSIVE. x'D

WHATS YOUR MOST HORRID READ OF 2018 SO FAR.

Kk. I needa check Goodreads first to see . . . OOH. The Hawaiian Discovery by Wanda Brunstetter. UGH, hand me the garbage. This was a terrible piece of trash and I could barely finish it but [#goalsyall], I did so it would count towards my reading challenge xD xD xD xD

LONGEST BOOK YOU'VE READ SO FAR IN 2018.

Welp, this was the large print edition but Sophie's Dilemma by Lauraine Snelling. It was a whole 593 pages, yeahhhh. I actually read it in two or three days surprisingly too. Huh.

SHORTEST BOOK YOU'VE READ IN SO FAR IN 2018.

The Missing Piece by Libby May. This was such a great short story and it was only ten pages. Heheh. xD

HOW MANY PAGES HAVE YOU READ SO FAR IN 2018.

I just checked and WOW Y'ALL. 20,996 pages. Almost 21,000. WHATTTT.

BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT SO FAR IN 2018.

The Penderwicks At Last. I loved it, and the classical feel to it butttt it felt like it lacked the Penderwick Feel of the other books. And Also my favorite character didn't marry who I wanted her to marry so I was SO SO SO SAD.

_________________

ANDDDD that's a wrap y'all. Next weekend, I'm moving my room so I am SO EXCITED!!!!!! And Also, coming up on the blog next Friday is a review of SUmmer Promise [hopefully!], so I am reallllyyy excited.

{ The Hope Of Azure Springs Book Review // Victoria's Book Nook }

Hey y’all! As promised, I am back with a new review on a fabulous post! Next week, I’ll be doing a Tag I got tagged for ages ago by two people so it’s about time I do it! 😂 👌🏼

The Hope Of Azure Springs By Rachel Fordham Synopsis.

“Seven years ago, orphaned and alone, Em finally arrived at a new home in Iowa after riding the orphan train. But secrets from her past haunt her, and her new life in the Western wilderness is a rough one. When her guardian is shot and killed, Em, now nineteen, finally has the chance to search for her long-lost sister, but she won't be able to do it alone. 

For Azure Springs Sheriff Caleb Reynolds, securing justice for the waifish and injured Em is just part of his job. He's determined to solve every case put before him in order to impress his parents and make a name for himself. Caleb expects to succeed. What he doesn't expect is the hold this strange young woman will have on his heart.”

—————
My Review.

AH. What an amazing book !! Definitely my new favorite historical book.

Things I Loved: 

-I love the day-to-day life in Azure Springs, that was displayed in the book. I would love to live in that time period so it gave the reader a great experience. 

-Now onto the plot, the oh, so amazing plot. I loved the mystery so much, it kept me turning pages late into the night. I also listened to the audiobook when I couldn’t read, or had to wash dishes and the narrator was amazing! She was perfect for the book.

-Em’s character, was so fabulous! I absolutely loved the whole orphan train thing that the author didn’t smooth over and make it sounds good when it wasn’t. She was spunky and plain, which I loved to see! It seems like all characters in books are drop dead gorgeous without a blemish which really irritates me. 

-Eliza! Tbh I loved Eliza and the story wouldn’t be as amazing without her. >.< she made the story entertaining since she was as sassy brat but I really loved how she changed towards the end. 

-Caleb was such a fun character and his story! I loved the uniqueness of it. 

-The three questions Caleb got to ask Em after winning a bet, AH SO PERFECT. Like YUS. 

Mae and Millie !! Awww they were some of my favourite characters. 

The ending. SO PERFECT. And TRAGIC. 😭😍👌🏼

-The Epilogue. AHHH. So amazing! I love love love how it ended. Now. Where’s my sequel?!?!

Things I Disliked: 

-this was published by a Christian Publisher but I didn’t really see much Christian Content in it?? Em prayed, Verses were mentioned but nothing much then that. 

-I wish we saw more of Eliza. Heehee! This sounds really bad, but I loved Eliza’s character! 

-There was a little bit of a Love Triangle which I dislike but it got sorted out quickly and wasn’t complicated. 

4.5/5 Stars. I’m so excited for the authors other books !! 👏🏻😄

{ Goodbye July, Hello August: aka IM BACK! / Victoria's Book Nook }

Hiiiiiii againnnn. I know I was supposed to be back several weeks ago but I really didn’t feel like blogging since it’s not exactly my favorite thing to do....xD Its fun but just it gets frustrating lolol.

Camp was GREAT. I loved it !! I’m really excited for next year and hopefully staying for another week of helping out at the Girls Camp.

We also went to the country fair for all three days and it wasn’t very exciting, I’ll admit! Waiting for my siblings and cousins to get off of rides at the midway and going to stand in line for rides after that wasn’t exactly entertaining.... I did enjoy the horse racing and such tho. And food. Allllll the fooood. But the heat *dies*

Seeing Soph was f a b u l o u s. We did an insta live and it was so much fun! btw, did you join innnnnn??

ANYWAY. I tried to add pictures but #allthemhtmlcodes *sighhhh* On another topic, I'm getting a new laptop for school, anddddd it will be perfect for making videos and blogging. and uploading all three thousand pictures on my iPod lolllllllll.

-------

On another note, we have ANOTHER new blogging schedule....heehee. Again. Every Friday, perhaps twice a week at times but since I have school soon, I won't have much time for blogging. And I'm going to do a lot less book reviews on books I didn't like and more books I loveeeee.

------

Well, Whats up in August, you ask. SOMETHING VERY EXCITING, EEEKKKK!!!! First of all, tomorrow, we're moving my sister, Melanie's, trailer full of stuff (aka junkkkk she hoards xD), tomorrow morning to her new apartment and then my sister was staying with my aunt for the week so we'll pick her up too.
My other sister, Emily is moving to another province for college, so my parents will drive her and her junk down there and fly back. She has a lot of stuff and a teeny car so I have no idea how she's gonna make it all fit.

EXCITING NEWS GUYS. I'm moving into her old room which has a lovely closet with so much space for MY junk, a lovely queen size bed, a lovely bathroom, and I'm moving FIVE lovely bookshelves in there too! It's going to be perfectly lovely and of course, I'll have a new room tour in September!!

And also, since its almost September, I'm rereading the Christy Miller College Years like every year [LOL] and I'm going to try and review them! Would you be interested in reading my review on the Christy Miller series [High School, College, Married, and Baby Years]??

-----

OOH. One more thing before I head off, Robin Jones Gunn's new book, Becoming Us, is coming out May 9th, 2019!!

Becoming Us Description:

"Five young moms, including beloved Gunn character Christy Miller, gather to share meals and soon become unlikely best friends. The regular gatherings provide opportunities for the women to reveal their stories, and those life stories endear them to each other. They experience their lives naturally meshing as they raise their children together in community. In Becoming Us the group find ways to challenge, encourage, and help each other become the nurturing mothers they wished they'd had when they were growing up. They unite to be remembered for what they do as moms and not for what was done to them."

----------
I can't wait! And isn't the cover gorgeous?? Anyways, see ya on Friday!!

{The Girls Guide to Conquering Life Review / Victoria’s Book Nook}

The Girls Guide To Conquering Life by Erica & Jonathan 
Review.

———————————————————————————

Okay. This book came unexpectedly from Revell in exchange for an honest review which I most definitely will be giving.

This book was c h e e s e y. WOW. I didn’t like that they enforced “Girl Power” all throughout this book! If you want to know why Girl Power is stupid, check out Melani Crones blog post on that HERE.

First of, they had some tips about dating. UH. I didn’t really care for that. They had two paragraphs about “How To Ask A Guy On A Date” and “Deciding Who Pays For the Date”, like what?? I thought that was a little too modern and bold. I literally rolled my eyes at that part.

They had another paragraph on “Shaking Hands” UM, that seems a little extremely dumb!! I’m pretty sure everyone knows how to shake hands....if not....*cough* It’s about time you learn, so pick up this book 🙈👌🏼.

The authors instructions for Driving, Changing A Tire, etc. Weren’t very clear?? I didn’t really understand what they were saying. 

This was published by Revel, a Christian Publisher....what?! This is not (in my opinion) considered a Christian book!! They didn’t mention any thing Christianity related AT ALL!!

All in all, a LOT of these times were very simple and mostly for ninnies, but I can see a few, very few in fact, that were useful like “Checking A Circuit Breaker”. I did find the little doodle, drawing things cute and added a fun touch ;)

Overall Rating: 2/5 stars. Very cheesy, and most of these tips were far from useful. Not recommended unless you need something for a good laugh. 

Thanks for Reading !! Have you read this??

Anddd GOODBYE FOR A FEW WEEKS!! Me and Soph might be going live on Instagram sooom so be sure to catch that !!

{ A Rebel Heart by Beth White Review / Victoria's Book Nook }

Description:

"Five years after the final shot was fired in the War Between the States, Selah Daughtry can barely manage to keep herself, her two younger sisters, and their spinster cousin fed and clothed. With their family's Mississippi plantation swamped by debt and the Big House falling down around them, the only option seems to be giving up their ancestral land.

Pinkerton agent and former Union cavalryman Levi Riggins is investigating a series of robberies and sabotage linked to the impoverished Daughtry plantation. Posing as a hotel management agent for the railroad, he tells Selah he'll help her save her home, but only if it is converted into a hotel. With Selah otherwise engaged with renovations, Levi moves onto the property to "supervise" while he actually attends to his real assignment right under her nose.

Selah isn't sure she entirely trusts the handsome Yankee, but she'd do almost anything to save her home. What she never expected to encounter was his assault on her heart. "

__________________________________________________________________________________

-----------------------------------------------------------

A Rebel Heart by Beth White Review.  ----------------------------------------------------- This was such a sweet enjoyable book!! I’m so excited for book two, especially since it’s about my favorite Daughtry sister, Joelle. :D This book was off to a rolling, intriguing start with a train wreck where Selah and Levi met Wyatt who was a loyal character for the rest of the story. Levi Riggins character was interesting and unique, as was Selah’s! Selah was an old maid or, so she thought, and it was fun to see her and Riggins become close friends with ups and downs throughout the story. I didn’t get into the mystery until the last fifty pages, but after I did, it was page turning and intriguing. I found Wyatt’s goal in life, or dream very interesting and it supported the storyline well that had a small connection to the mystery. Joelle!! Ahhh, she was a definition of me! She liked to read all the time and always had her head in a book.  The writing style definitely pulled me in, but I did see a lot more telling than showing which did irritate me some. There was no content I found disturbing or inappropriate aside from when the Yankees attacked the Daughtry House where a few were hurt afterwards, physically and emotionally. The faith side of it was well done and there was a good message throughout the story. ———————————————————— Overall rating: 4/5 stars. Well done Beth White! The storyline of A Rebel Heart pulled me in from page one, and she captured the time period perfectly. And the gorgeous cover 👏🏻😍! Now that I've finished it, I want to reread it! **I was sent a free copy from the publisher, Revell in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts are my own.** ~Victoria
