I was SO thrilled when I saw @kristinaforest's announcement for The Partner Plot, an adult romance that follows Violet (the older sister of Lily from The Neighbor Favor) and her high school sweetheart 🩷 It's coming out in the spring of 2024 and I'm already counting down the days until it's in my hands πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I certainly felt that about a few of the books I read this past month, but especially:
πŸ«– The Tea Dragon Society - this entire MG graphic novel trilogy just warmed my heart so much. It's precious and wonderful and if you haven't read it, please do because you won't be able to wipe the smile off your face.
πŸ” Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers - within the first couple of chapters, I was belly-laughing so hard I was crying. This was hilarious and adorable and I didn't want it to end. I immediately began recommending it to everyone. 
⛱️ Happy Place - because of course! I mean, this book did make me sob my eyes out multiple times, but it also made me belly laugh more than once as well. It was perfect in every way and very quickly became my second fave of Emily's books (just after PWMOV)!
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Thank goodness I'm a big fan of rereading because I know I'll be revisiting all of these books again in the future πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

I certainly felt that about a few of the books I read this past month, but especially:
πŸ«– The Tea Dragon Society - this entire MG graphic novel trilogy just warmed my heart so much. It's precious and wonderful and if you haven't read it, please do because you won't be able to wipe the smile off your face.
πŸ” Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers - within the first couple of chapters, I was belly-laughing so hard I was crying. This was hilarious and adorable and I didn't want it to end. I immediately began recommending it to everyone. 
⛱️ Happy Place - because of course! I mean, this book did make me sob my eyes out multiple times, but it also made me belly laugh more than once as well. It was perfect in every way and very quickly became my second fave of Emily's books (just after PWMOV)!
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Thank goodness I'm a big fan of rereading because I know I'll be revisiting all of these books again in the future πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

It's been a while since I've screamed about my favorite book, INTO THE HEARTLESS WOOD by @gamwyn, in-feed... so here's another reminder to not just buy this, but actually READ IT - like RIGHT NOW πŸ˜‰ I take every opportunity I can to recommend this one because it truly is unlike any other fantasy I've ever read and I just adore it with my ENTIRE HEART 🀎
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
If you love hauntingly beautiful fantasy books with:
πŸ”­ cinnamon roll astronomer boys
🌲 monstrous tree siren girls
🎢 villain falling for the hero
πŸ’« stars and leaves and everything in between
you will absolutely LOVE this book πŸ“–

I'm currently rereading Archenemies (Renegades 2) and I'd absolutely visit Gatlon City to see all of the people with superpowers - but I’d also be a little nervous as a β€œsidekick” civilian πŸ™ˆ Maybe Sketch could lend me some of his powers? ✍🏼 
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I'm also reading Stealing Infinity and I probably wouldn't visit because I'd be too scared of getting unalived right away ☠️ This is the problem with fantasy books... I simultaneously wanna visit but also just don't wanna be deceased within two seconds of entering the high-stakes world πŸ˜…

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
While a lot of people tend to use spring and summer as an "excuse" to read romance, I'm definitely someone who reads equal amounts of romance and fantasy all year long! πŸ₯°
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
A recent favorite of mine was The Neighbor Favor, which I picked for last month’s @litlovebox πŸ“– It was absolutely adorable in every way and I know I'll want to read it again in the future 🫢🏼
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
In the past couple of months, I've also enjoyed:
🎀 Funny Feelings by Tarah DeWitt
🏰 The Renaissance of Gwen Hathaway by Ashley Schumacher
🍿 Never Been Kissed by Timothy Janovsky
πŸ“» Ten Rules for Faking It by Sophie Sullivan
🌾 In the Weeds by BK Borison
🌲 Highly Suspicious and Unfairly Cute by Talia Hibbert
πŸŽ’ Begin Again by Emma Lord
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
The Neighbor Favor also paired wonderfully with the fantastic coffee and cookies that came in my @litlovebox package β˜•οΈ Definitely one of the best bookish boxes I've seen out there, and you can use STEPH5 for a discount when you subscribe πŸ“š
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Have you read any of these cute romances? 🀎
