Good morning, y'all! I hope you've had a fantastic week and a very Happy Thanksgiving. Are y'all ready for the weekend? I know I am. I do think we're supposed to get a few snow flurries, though. Today, I'm sharing my November reads! 


2025 Reading Goal~ 125 Books
I've currently read 121 books, so I have 4 more to go before the end of the year. I have 5 books started so I'll probably finish the year a little over my goal. 


Here's how my book recap goes. 

~I have included pictures if I have them and have provided links to them on Amazon so you can find out more about the books before you buy or check them out at your local library. 

~ If I left a more detailed review for a book, I'll include the link under the book so you can check it out. I leave reviews for books I really like or have received for reviews on Amazon, Goodreads, and this blog. 

~If I receive a preview book, I'll include the release date for you.

~ Each book will have a rating in bold. I rate each book with a numbered star.

The rating system I use is as follows ~

*5 This book was amazing! I couldn't put it down. I loved the book so much that I either bought the book or planned to buy it to add to my ever-growing collection so I could reread it. 

*4 This means the book is definitely worth reading. I really enjoyed the book. I liked it, but not enough to buy it and add it to my collection. 

*3 This book was good. It wasn't the best book I've read, but I did enjoy it. I wouldn't need to read it again. 

*2 This book was okay. I finished it but had to force myself to. I probably didn't like the plot or the characters. The story just didn't work for me. 

*1 This means I didn't like the book at all, and I couldn't finish it.


This month, I read 9 books. 






4****

This is book 3 in the Wild Harbor Beach series. Mila returns home for the holidays and suddenly finds herself being set up by her matchmaking grandma. I love this series. The cute little town is the perfect setting for a small-town romance. 





5*****

This was the book for my weekly Bible study from Walking with Purpose. Each year our women's' church group choses one or two books from Walking with Purpose to study. This book was a journey through Colossians. 



4****

This book was one I picked up at the library. It was on the new books shelf. I'm always looking for new cookbooks, especially ones with tasty and healthy recipes. I've heard of Food Babe before, so I was already familiar with her ideas and concepts. 






4****

I loved the Scottish village in this book. Reading Christmas themed books during this time of the year is a favorite past time of mine. This is a Christmas romance story. Jessica returns home for the holidays after a crazy year. She loves coming home and seeing the familiar faces, Christmas lights, and her brother's infuriating best friend. It's Christmas time. It's time for some Christmas magic and a sweet romance to bloom. 






5*****

This was a read for my 1st grade Sunday school class. It's a great book to help little ones realize that with God we can become so much more. We all start out small, but God has big plans for each and every one of else. 




3***

This was an ARC read. I always have problems with novellas. I always end up needing more of a story line. I personally didn't care for the characters, and the plot was just oaky to me. It wasn't horrible, but it wasn't one of my favorites either. You can read my full review over at Goodreads.






5*****

I absolutely loved this one! It is the perfect Christmas romance story. Great characters, a wonderful small-town setting, and a fixer upper job restoring the Gingerbread house. What's not to love?







5*****

This was another 5-star Christmas romance story. A charming, small-town setting, a winter wonderland, and two reluctant people falling in love. It's the perfect book to curl up with on a cold, snowy day!





4****

Another fantastic ARC read! A quirky little town. Amazing characters. A furry sidekick. A murder mystery that keeps you guessing until the end. Grab a cup of hot chocolate and sit back and enjoy.
