Loved this 3rd in the Eldovia Christmas series, a mashup of the Princess Diaries and the best Hallmark movies. The main characters are authentic and layered and a it is a joy to watch them fall in love. #BookspinBingo #DashingDecember #wintergames #restinggrinchface @TheAromaofBooks @Andrew65

Finally, I enjoyed a contemporary Christmas romance🙌Enemies to lovers. One of my favorite romance tropes. Cara have to go to Eldovia “to help to modernize the royal family‘s company” (book blurb). Matteo Benz was assigned to assist Cara with the information she will need. But these two are opposite and they didn‘t start that professional relation well. Then, things happen. It was funny and cute. Fast reading. 3/3.5⭐️ ⬇️

Gissy I received this book last year #JolabokaflodSwap 2022 from @BKClubCare
I used the card as bookmark, so pretty😍

120 pages in and I‘m bored and don‘t really care about either of the characters. So, I‘m moving on!

Andrew65 That‘s always a shame 😔 2y
TheAromaofBooks They can't all be a win!! I read one of her other books last December and was pretty ambivalent towards it. 2y

It‘s a Christmas Miracle! I finished a book with “Christmas” in the title ON Christmas Day! And I loved it. We are fighting the 🦠 germs, sadly, and feel awful, so I needed a sweet/hot romance 💝 to cheer me. I even cried at the end! 😂

BkClubCare @Jess861 - yes! This is Copper who is not being helpful as I attempt to do yoga. He is 3, we just adopted him. Esther is our other #whpg, she is 12 yo 2y

BkClubCare @Jess861 - awesome! They are special. We‘ve had 4. Are your parents in the Griffology group on FB? 2y
Jess861 @BkClubCare - They aren't - only my mom has a fb account and I don't think she really uses it. I'll have to let her know about the group if she does use her account a bit though. 2y
BkClubCare @Jess861 - 😊💝 2y
Ruthiella Hope you feel better soon! 🤒❤️ 2y
BkClubCare @Ruthiella - thanks, (and sadly, most of my worry on this is job-related. Ugh?!) 2y

Shipped out my gift 📕 + 🍫 today! Asked for advice from the postal clerk and we found a reasonable option that is due to arrive Tuesday or Wednesday Dec 6 or 7th!🎄

@MaleficentBookDragon

For not even remembering that I signed up l 🤦🏻‍♀️ I am so pleased that I was able to participate with such speed and enjoyment myself. Spending rest of the day listening to my audiobook writing Christmas cards.

BkClubCare @gissy - Hope you enjoy the story as much as I did. It was lovely to be able to spend the whole weekend reading. (But that is because we had a positive covid 🦠 test and didn‘t see anyone 😢) 2y
Gissy @BkClubCare I hope everyone get well soon. I‘m here today, reading too because I have fever and not feeling totally well. Not COVID but still. I made soup and I‘m drinking a lot of liquids. 2y
BkClubCare @Gissy - hope you recover soon and have good reading snuggling time! 2y
Gissy @BkClubCare Thank you! 🥰 2y

Jesus CHRIST THIS SLOW BURN MADE ME WANT TO JUMP OFF THE ROOF. I was SCREAMING for Cara and Matteo to realize their formal, repressed selves (affectionate) were head over heels for one another. I want more Eldovia!!! #christmasromance #contemporaryromance
