Thank you @TheSpineView for creating this fun play-card and thanks @Eggs for tagging me 🏷️😊👍💝.
1- Depends on what kind of strength I need. Family, faith, garden, music, sometimes self- reflection...etc.
2- I want to say Batman. Yet, the tag book was interesting. The main character, Gemma does what is best not only for herself, but for her family and best friend.

so-soUgh. I could not stand the main MC in this book and unfortunately it‘s all told from her point of view. I did like Dax a bit but Gemma was so selfish and frustrating. It‘s too bad because I really love magical realism and love stories.
pickLike I've noted, love stories are not my kind of reads...unless there is something I particularly like about the storyline.
If this hadn't been a time-slip, I would't have read it & that would've been a shame because these characters were wonderful.
This one was simply a cute and whimsical romance what was infused with the interesting message about “living“ your dreams.
Would make a great series with wacky Aunt Livi as the magical matchmaker!

Any time-slip love story.
I Knew I Loved You, by Savage Garden (Love their music).
While not a perfect match, I don't know why nearly every time I encounter a time-slip love story, this song automatically plays once. As if like magic. Turn on the radio, there are those lyrics. Walk into a grocery store, this song greets me, etc.
I've come to link the song with time-slip love stories.
pickI enjoyed this romance with magical realism!
#bookspinbingo - got another bingo!

Don't have many romance books. Not that I don't like a good love story, I just prefer the romantic to come secondary to the fantasy or paranormal.
Interesting title, intriguing coverart, inviting setting, or having something I like mixed into the story usually gets me to buy into these.
That's how this one came to live on my bookshelf...magic.
Love time-loop stories!
Just read through Chap.7 last night and I found myself holding my breath!
pickSo I read time-loop HEAs often especially this time of year. They are easy fun stories. First thing I read for: Does the MC experience this time-wrap on their own or do they get to confide with someone about their experience? And if they confide, how quickly did supporting character(s) find the MC credible? This time the MC had 2 supporting characters in her corner, and it was adorable.
so-soNormally I love a good magical realism romance & there were things I did love about this story, but the MC Gemma was not one of them. This is clearly it‘s me not you. I think I‘ m too middle-aged to sympathize with 20-something Gemma. It didn't help that I wasn't crazy about the narrator. She had a weird cadence and pacing.
pickGreat characters, delightful premise.A bit reminiscent of In Five Years by Rebecca Serle. Nothing is certain when you are ‘love-spelled‘- it could go favorably, or poorly. Fun read

This took me a second to get into, but I‘m definitely entertained now! ✨🍹
The tree is up, the leg lamp is lit, the cats are snoring, and this book is so cute! A lovely Saturday evening 😍
pickLoved this time-slip, sliding doors debut romance. Clever and deliberate, the prose is comforting and the pace feels perfect. The characters were charming yet authentic and really added to the story. I look forward to more from Robb! #BookspinBingo #arc #netgalleygroup @TheAromaofBooks
I choose two books this month from #BOTM
They both looked really good. I am excited to get my box. Hope it comes quickly! ❤️📚📭
What did you guys choose?
November #botm
🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁
I told myself only one book this month.... apparently I lied. 🙃 oops.
I hadn‘t heard of this book prior to #botm choosing it this month, but it looks fun! I was really close to choosing Again and Again, but it‘s been a stressful month and I‘m much more in the mood for a sweet romance than a deep emotional journey, so I went with my gut. This was my 12th BOTM box which means I‘m a “BFF” now. 😋 I get a tote!
pickThis is a charming and endearing novel about Gemma, whose breakup with Stuart leaves her devastated with a void she fills with doughnuts and alcohol. But after her aunt works a “charm,” she awakens to a new reality. So sweet (but lots of sex so beware) and funny!
