About

Welcome!

I'm so glad you decided to drop by!

You may be wondering a simple question: "Who is running this blog?" Good question. You probably wouldn't be encouraged by all the fictional stories I could make up about this blog. But we'll go with the actual truth.

My name is Ella Grace. I'm a seventeen year old Christian girl who adores reading, writing, and crafting. I have dozens of stories which I've written and am writing. I constantly have at least three books I'm reading at once.

I started this blog because of two main reasons. My love of books and the desire to share books with the world. I wanted to create a fun, cozy blog that gave true, honest, in-depth reviews on all types of books. I'm still working out the kinks in how to make this work, but eventually I'll hammer it out.

The ratings for these books are based off four main things.

1. Story analysis (plot, structure, characters, writing style, etc.)
2. Christian values
3. Negative content
4. Age suitability

Using those four main categories, I try to create an in-depth, honest review on the book which shows the positive and negative sides of the story. I hereby personally apologize to any author whose book I must give a low rating.

If you have any suggestions for book reviews or any comments, please let me know in the comments below! If you suggest a book, please make sure it follows the guidelines of Philippians 4:8 in regards to language, sexual, and negative content. If you aren't sure if it does or not, go ahead and suggest the book anyway and I'll look into it. I reserve the right to decline to review a book without giving a reason, but I will look into all requests and suggestions.
But that said, please do drop a suggestion below in the comments or fill out this form: link! It's sometimes hard to find books that are new and novel to review, so I'd love any help my readers can provide.

Book Review #4 - The Candymakers

  This is an amazing story. There are a few times the story dragged, but even when it slowed down, it never lost my interest. I've always loved the setting of the candy factory and the realistic, loveable characters. In fact, if someone were to ask me "what book could you read over and over and never get sick of?" I would say that the audio version of The Candymakers is definitely on that list.  Author: Wendy Mass Genre: Fiction/Mystery Series: Yes- two book series Time Period: Modern day Setting:  in a candy factory somewhere in the United States Summary:   Four children have been chosen to compete in a national competition to create the world's best new candy.

Book Review #5 - Red Rover Red Rover

  Thoughts: *clears throat* Sooo it's been a little bit. I did not forget about my blog, but I barely had time to breathe the last year. But we're back! And hopefully going to have regular book reviews! somebody scream at me if I stop posting again . And now, onto the review.  Wow. This book has been on my TBR list for years. I finally put it on my birthday wish list a few months ago. Low and behold, someone bought it for me! Since then, I've read it. Reread it. And rereread it. Saying it is amazing is not enough. I could go scream its name from the rooftops. But I'm an introvert so we're not doing that.  I loved all the codenames, the intrigue, the mystery, and the comedy! It is so wonderful to have a spy/comedy novel that is Christian and clean! It's like a breath of fresh air.
