Life Update.

 Well, hello again!

It's been a while since I've posted anything, hasn't it?

Over the past year I've taken an unexpected break from the blogging and bookstagram world. It wasn't intentional. But life just kinda hit me hard. 

But lately I've been really wanting to get back into posting content for all the beautiful people I've met over the two years I've been in this writing world. I've missed the community, the sharing, the meeting new people from different cultures and ages, etc. That I wouldn't normally meet otherwise.

  So much has gone on, and yet it seems also so little has changed. 


I recently posted on my bookstagram, Jesus_andbooks asking for some suggestions on what to post here. You guys really outdid yourselves! I received so many good ideas, I'm so excited to explore every one of em!! 


Well, for a little update about me I guess.. Even though I'm not sure there's much to tell. 

 Let's see, I had job, lost the job due to covid. Got a job, quit that job. And I'm currently job searching. Haha.

 What else? Oh, got a nose piercing!


   This July I had the most fun of my life. Went on a spontaneous trip to Florida to see my family and go to Universal studios! Where my best friend proposed to my sister.



I know we're not wearing masks in either of these pictures, but never fear, masks were strictly enforced the entire time there. In the first picture because it was their engagement photo they quickly slipped them off for us to snap a picture. In the second photo we were allowed to take our masks off while we were eating/drinking so we were. 

It was absolutely magical. I loved every minute of it. 

   

  This year a lot has happened. I've hurt, I've thrived, I've grown and I've most definitely changed. But I truly believe I'm becoming the best version of myself. And I'm proud of my progress.


I know 2020 has been hard on us all, but what's something good that happened to you this year?

On the Wings of Devotion, Roseanna White. (Book Review)


About the book:

All of England thinks Phillip Camden a monster--a man who deliberately caused the deaths of his squadron. But as nurse Arabelle Denler watches the so-dubbed "Black Heart" every day, she sees something far different: a hurting man desperate for mercy. And when their paths twist together and he declares himself her new protector, she realizes she has her own role to play in his healing.

Phillip Camden would have preferred to die that day with his squadron rather than be recruited to the Admiralty's codebreaking division. The threats he receives daily are no great surprise and, in his opinion, well deserved. What comes as a shock is the reborn desire to truly live that Arabelle inspires in him.

But when an old acquaintance shows up and seems set on using him in a plot that has the codebreakers of Room 40 in a frenzy, new affections are put to the test.
 

My thoughts: 

The second book in Roseanna White's Codebreaker series was just as phenomenal as the first!
 The book was packed full of action, suspense, romance and wonderfully complex characters. 

 The story as well as the writing was incredible. Roseanna never disappoints me. 

 The characters were well thought out. Each with their own story so well told it felt as if their hearts were beating alongside yours. 

On Wings of Devotion had wonderful characters, a great story line, and a beautiful story of coming to Faith and strengthening faith. 

White always does an amazing job on making all historical facts correct, and displaying life as it was in the 1900s. 

Her characters are amazing and beautiful and all deeply touching and relatable. 

I say bravo. 👌
