Are you a budgeter? Are you a “make a general plan and hope for the best” or a “cash envelope, know where it’s all going” kind of person?
……
For most of my grown up life I was winging it, but the last 3-4 months we moved to the envelope system and honestly? We don’t hate it.
……
If you’re in the “I do nothing and play the lottery hoping for a miracle”, this is the book for you. Maybe you’ve started, or you want to and are overwhelmed, this book is for you.
……
I’m going to share our journey soon, but you can get a sneak peek on my blog AND read my full review of this book (thank you @tlcbooktours and @thomasnelson for the copy)!

👋🏻Hi friends! I’ve struggled with my weight for most of my life. I’ve been low and I’ve been sky high. I was always that girl that looked in the mirror wishing I saw a different body. If I’m perfectly honest, I still do. It’s a hard habit to break.

I can’t tell you how many times I decided to start being “healthy” at the beginning of a new week only to immediately fail and tell myself o'well, I can start again on Monday….

“𝘊𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴. 𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘢 𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨? 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘴𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦’𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦’𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘦’𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨….”

𝘐’𝘭𝘭 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘈𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘔𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘺 is a revised and condensed version of Lysa’s original book 𝘔𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘊𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘦. It’s not about diets. It’s not about elimination. It’s about finding your “want to”. It’s about identifying misguided cravings for food and realizing the craving is for something far greater than we realize. It’s true food for the soul.

Thank you @tlcbooktours @thomasnelson for this copy.

BOOK FEATURE!

HUGE thanks to @penguinteen and @tlcbooktours for the gifted copy!

A snarky seventeen-year-old must team up with an enigmatic criminal to cure herself of dangerous forbidden magic in the first book of a new fantasy duology from Morgan Rhodes, the New York Times bestselling author of the Falling Kingdoms series. It releases tomorrow, so click the link in bio to purchase!

Josslyn Drake knows only three things about magic: it’s rare, illegal, and always deadly.

So when she’s caught up in a robbery gone wrong at the Queen’s Gala and infected by a dangerous piece of magic—one that allows her to step into the memories of an infamously evil warlock—she finds herself living her worst nightmare. Joss needs the magic removed before it corrupts her soul and kills her. But in Ironport, the cost of doing magic is death, and seeking help might mean scheduling her own execution. There’s nobody she can trust.

Nobody, that is, except wanted criminal Jericho Nox, who offers her a deal: his help extracting the magic in exchange for the magic itself. And though she’s not thrilled to be working with a thief, especially one as infuriating (and infuriatingly handsome) as Jericho, Joss is desperate enough to accept.

But Jericho is nothing like Joss expects. The closer she grows to Jericho and the more she sees of the world outside her pampered life in the city, the more Joss begins to question the beliefs she’s always taken for granted—beliefs about right and wrong, about power and magic, and even about herself.

In an empire built on lies, the truth may be her greatest weapon.

ECHOES AND EMPIRES by the incredible @morganrhodesya releases tomorrow!

Qotd: Favorite fantasy series and go!!!

Thank you @kensingtonbooks @elleryadamsofficial & @tlcbooktours for the #gifted copy & having me on the tour!

How could I not be interested in a book about a book-selling former librarian who solves murders?!

𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘆 𝗲𝗿𝘂𝗽𝘁𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗠𝗶𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀, 𝗡𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗮, 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝘄𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆 𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗿--𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘂𝗽 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗱…

Known for her window displays, Nora Pennington decides to showcase fictional heroines like Roald Dahl’s Matilda & Madeline Miller’s Circe for Halloween. But a family-values group disapproves of the magical themes & wastes no time launching a modern-day witch hunt. Suddenly, former friends and customers are targeting not only Nora & Miracle Books, but a new shopkeeper, Celeste, who’s been selling CBD oil products.
Nora & her friends in the Secret, Book, and Scone Society are doing their best to put an end to the strife--but then someone puts an end to a life. Declared an accident, the ruling can’t explain the old book page covered with strange symbols and disturbing drawings left under Nora’s doormat. It’s up to Nora and the Secret, Book, and Scone Society to sort out the clues before more bodies turn up and the secrets from Celeste’s past come back to haunt them all…

Even though this is the fourth book in the series, I had no problem jumping right in. I loved how Nora and all her friends were so supportive of each other. I could so relate to Nora’s love of books and her desire to put the right book into the right person’s hands. This #cozymystery is all about friendship, books, reading, and solving murders. I definitely have to read the rest of this delightful series now!

Happy Friday! QOTD: any plans for the weekend?
Today is our son’s birthday. We’re watching the weather to see if we can take a road trip to celebrate.

Blurb
Lady Ophelia Darby exists in two worlds. In one, she is the impudent, willful daughter of a powerful marquess and darling of the ton. In the other, she moves through the underworld’s shadows as songstress Lady Starlight, protected only by the notoriously wealthy scoundrel Devlin Byrne. But when she stumbles upon her beloved father’s darkest secrets, the line between her two worlds quickly blurs. Now she needs the help of the one man a lady should never trust.

Devlin Byrne stands on the edge of London society, knowing he will never be accepted. No one else knows that his obscene wealth and ruthlessness aren’t without purpose. Or that his purpose has golden-brown eyes that shimmer with mischief, the palest of skin, and a lush mouth that beckons to be kissed, and deeply. But having Ophelia is only the beginning of Devlin’s plans.

It’s undeniable that Devlin Byrne is a dangerous temptation?but just as Ophelia begins to trust him, maybe even fall for him, she discovers she’s not the only one with secrets. And his would lead her down more than just the path of scandal…

From the incredibly original story, beautiful world building and unforgettable characters, Innate Magic is the beginning of what’s set-up to be an amazing series from debut author Shannon Fay.

You can read it NOW on Kindle Unlimited!!! Check out the synopsis below:

Delightfully cheeky, unquestionably charming, and sometimes maddeningly naive, cloth mage Paul Gallagher is desperately trying to make a name for himself in a reimagined postwar London. But in a world where magic is commonplace, sewing enchanted clothes is seen as little more than a frivolous distraction. Paul is hiding a secret, however: he possesses a powerful―and illegal―innate magic that could help him achieve his wildest dreams.

Unfortunately, Paul confides in the wrong person―his latest crush, Captain Hector Hollister―and is drawn into a sinister plot that risks reigniting the machinery of war. To make matters worse, the pretty American gossip reporter Paul just met reveals her personal quest to expose a government cover-up may be related to Hollister’s magical goals. When Hollister threatens the life of Paul’s dearest friend, he realizes that his poor judgement has put not only his family and friends in danger, but also the whole world.

The only way to set things right may be for Paul to undergo the dangerous ritual to become Court Magician―the most powerful magician in the country. But is becoming part of the institution the best way to enact change in a terribly unjust society?

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙁𝙡𝙞𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙀𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩: 𝙋𝙪𝙩𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙈𝙖𝙜𝙞𝙘, 𝙈𝙮𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙮, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙎𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙠 𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙤 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙀𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮𝙙𝙖𝙮 𝙈𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙞𝙖𝙜𝙚 is a book you’ll want to bring into your married life.⁣
⁣
𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆⁣
⁣
From popular Christian voices Lisa Jacobson and Phylicia Masonheimer, 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙁𝙡𝙞𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙀𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 inspires you to strengthen your marriage with a fun, unexpected approach that leads to the depth, richness, and closeness you desire.⁣
⁣
Romance novels, Hallmark movies . . . the immense demand for romantic stories reveals a deep, unsatisfied longing that can be found in many marriages, but does it have to be that way? Is it possible that the best marriage has to offer can grow, rather than fade after you say “I do”? Lisa and Phylicia say, “Absolutely yes!”⁣
⁣
So what is the secret to a happy, thriving, loving marriage, where the fire of romance and close friendship do not fade? While 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙁𝙡𝙞𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙀𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 includes the frisky side of marriage, it’s far more than a good romp. By degrees, each chapter takes you to a deeper place, covering themes every beautiful marriage has in common, such as covenant, healing, and hope.⁣
⁣
Lisa Jacobson is an author, a podcaster, and the founder of Club31Women.com, an online community of Christian women authors who write on marriage, home, family, and faith–a powerful voice for biblical womanhood.⁣
⁣
Phylicia Masonheimer is an author, speaker, and host of the Verity Podcast. Her blog – Every Woman a Theologian- teaches Christians how to know what they believe and live it boldly. Theology touches every area of life, so Phylicia addresses cultural questions through the lens of church history and sound biblical interpretation.⁣

The Girl Who Ruined Christmas 💔🎄

As a middle school teacher, I’m constantly looking for engaging stories that capture the attention of my seventh grade students. I have many struggling readers who find it difficult to dive into a really long novel, so this seasonal novella is the perfect addition to my classroom library. I read this in one sitting!🎄

“When Brady ruins Harper Hollow Fall’s prize tree, she’s sentenced to stay in the holiday-festooned town for the month of December. At first, she couldn’t be more depressed about the whole situation; but during her month there, she is surprised to discover that there’s much more than pine needles to the little town holding her captive. In the end, Harper Hollow Falls reminds Brady of the true meaning of Christmas—and she, in turn, saves the town.”

Brady was such a relatable young adult, and the characters that she meets in Harper Hollow Falls just warmed my heart. In her short time there, she truly learns what’s important in the world, and how to make the best of a tough situation. She grows so much in this adorable novella; I’m sure the aspiring readers in your life would enjoy every page.

Thank you so much to @tlcbooktours and @cindycallaghanwrites for this copy! It kicked off the magical season for us. ✨

Happy Fri-YAY! 🎉 What are your weekend plans?👇🏼

I’m thrilled to dive into Thursday is the New Friday by Joe Sanok - because I am a firm believer in working smarter, not harder. 💯 A four day work week is gaining popularity - have you seen the recent data out of Iceland that says working four days instead of five is better for employees *and* employers. 👏🏼 This book is a practical guide for scheduling your week in a way that maximizes productivity but also leaves plenty of time for things you care about most - like family, friends, hobbies, and leisure. 🌱 I love it! If only public schools would shift to a four day a week schedule… 🤪 Would a four day work week be possible for you? 🗓

💐Q: Who are your favorite authors that write both adult and YA?

I fell in love with @farahheronauthor writing when I read Accidentally Engaged earlier this year, so when I heard she was publishing a YA rom com, I knew I had to read it. Not only do I admire that Farah has the ability to write in both realms, I always love how her books are witty, with great chemistry between the characters.

Tahira in Bloom follows an aspiring fashion designer, whose summer internship falls through, forcing her to work with her aunt in a small Ontario town. Allergic to flowers, Tahira finds herself in the flower capital, living next door to a neighbor who isn't appreciative of her fashion influencer aspirations. But as they are forced together when they enter the annual flower sculpture, sparks begin to fly and Tahira neighbor might not be as bad as he first seems.

This opposites attract, enemies to lovers rom com totally captured my heart. I loved both Tahira and Rowan's characters, as well as the fun town of Blakewell. Tahira is sassy, determined and highly motivated and Rowan balances her personality out perfectly. He's so sweet and tender under his prickly demeanor and I loved watching their relationship develop.

My favorite part of the book was Tahira's family. They all passionately adopt "the plan," for Tahira to make it big in fashion. At times they were overbearing, but I loved their commitment to helping her succeed. Seeing how family and cultural pressures play out, especially for teen Tahira, was an added layer of depth for the book. I also appreciated the splashes of Tahira's Muslim culture throughout and the inclusion of discussions of race and microaggressions.

A huge thanks to @tlcbooktours + @amazonpublishing for the beautiful #gifted copy of this book! Tahira in Bloom is out now!

🌮Tacos for Two 🌮

Synopsis
Food truck owner Rory Perez may not know how to cook but she is determined to win the upcoming contest at a food truck festival. Prize money can give her financial footing, freeing up her time to meet the man she met on an online dating site.
Jude Strong is tired of being his father’s puppet and sees the food truck festival as an opportunity to embrace his passion for cooking. If he loses he will be back at the law firm for good so failure is not an option. But things gets complicated when he discovers his stiffest competition is the same woman he’s been falling for online. Will they sacrifice the futures they’ve envisioned for the sake of love?

I think this will be a perfect read for those that love a good rom com, love to cook, enjoy an enemies to lovers trope or just looking for a light feel good read. I am really looking forward to reading this one!
Thank you @tlcbooktours and @revellbooks for my gifted copy!

How cute is this cover!? I love the bright colors and who doesn’t love tacos? It is one of the few things I can cook that everyone will eat so we have tacos at least once a week in our house.

Funny story-Everyone calls my daughter by her nickname—Coco. So when her younger brother was learning how to say her name he couldn’t quite say it and called her taco. It lasted awhile. 😂

Halloween might be over but that doesn’t mean you need to wait a whole year to read more spooky books! In fact, here’s a spectacularly poignant scary story that I urge you to start reading immediately!

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐬𝐡 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 by Singaporean author @amchinhua is a tale about a haunted ancestral house, the spirit that lives in it, and the people she haunts. When Sister Mary Michael, a clairvoyant nun, is visited at night by the spirit, she knows it will soon want something from her. The next day, a Bishop asks her to go to the Tjoa ash house and investigate the strange incidents happening there; for instance, the heir of the house was found hanging naked Barbie dolls from his door. Convinced that this involves her visiting spirit from earlier, Sister Mary Michael takes up residence in the ash house. And that is how she meets the ghost of Bing Fa, a woman wronged by generations of the Tjao family and trapped inside a doll.

This is probably the shortest plot summary I’ve ever written about a book that I loved so much! But it’s because every single detail in this book matters. An Asian gothic novel, 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐬𝐡 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 may be a ghost story on the surface but it tackles much deeper issues: the fetishization and commodification of female bodies, the exploitation of migrant workers, the abuse rich people put their domestic helpers through, and the lengths people will go to for love. Containing elements from some of my favorite gothic works (Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, The Yellow Wallpaper, The Library of the Dead), #𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 is a wholly
unique, compelling piece of prose made perfect through Chin’s cast of characters and gilt-edged narrative style. Many many many thanks to @tlcbooktours and @penguinbooks for putting this evocative novel on my radar. I finished it in one sitting and I bet you will too! 📚

The Wedding Wager from Eva Devon publishes on October 25th and wow, what an amazing historical to add to your list. Thanks so much to Entangled Publishing for the ARC and to @tlcbooktours for having me on the tour for this one. I've put the synopsis for this one on another slide if you swipe right!

Oh the Duke of Chase, what a champion for other's causes (especially for the causes of women), but not a champion for yourself. He was so right that Victoria (or Victory as he called her- how cute!) would be a perfect match for him, but he was oh so wrong in the ways that match would play out. It was so lovely to watch them banter, for Victoria to discover her strength as a woman and as an individual and for Chase to meet his match when he when that wedding wager for Victoria's hand.

One of the hardest parts of historical romances for me is the treatment of women in them, even when so many of them feature strong, resilient women who are able to rise above their station, or in despite of their womanhood. This is the first one I've read though where the man really champions not only his woman, but all the women he's able to help who are downtrodden oden because of their place in society. Victoria doesn't fail to put him in his place when his good intentions go astray, and he really grows in his methods and ventures to help women attain freedom, and it was just a lovely vein to this story.

I loved the chemistry between Victoria and Chase, they really were the perfect match. The 🔥 scenes in this one were fairly tame, but not completely closed door, and I was here for it- it earns a mild-to-moderate rating for me.

I'm hopeful this is the beginning of a new series, I would love to read a story about Lord Brookhaven meeting his perfect match. This one earns ⭐⭐⭐⭐ from me.

Have you read any good historicals lately? What were they? I'm always looking for more to add to my TBR!
