I had to read this a couple of times back-to-back to make sure I got everything. Dense, beautiful, so much world-building packed into a very short space.

And with #Husband in the title, I'm down to one prompt to go, and I've already picked up that book (Magical Meet Cute)

Another “just fine“ read. Small-town autumn-vibes insta-love, “just talk to each other“ romance. I'm so confused by all the people who complained that this was way too spicy - there's maybe two two brief vanilla sex scenes?

Anyway. #Wreath #ISpyBingo #ISpy @TheAromaOfBooks

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 1d

This small-town holiday romance is ... fine. A perfectly cromulent story.

More importantly, though, it has a Santa hat, a snowglobe, AND an emergency vehicle on the cover! That's three prompts filled from #ISpyBingo - fully half of my remaining fills - and September done.

Next up - Pumpkin Spice Cafe, which has a #wreath on the cover.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 2d

March 2025 Book #5
I own like three special editions of this book because they are beautiful and I thought I would love this book. This book has mixed reviews. I‘m in the side of very disappointed team. The writing style is so different of what I use to read by this author, it was like someone else wrote it. The premise is so interesting but I found it extremely boring. Maybe because I was expecting action, intrigue, I don‘t know something else⬇️

Gissy (Cont.) It didn‘t work for me, sorry for the fans☺️2 ⭐️ What I am going to do with all these editions? Don‘t know yet, they are so beautiful and I really like this author but this one was not for me😬For now they still live in my shelf😊

Karisa Agreed. I ended up bailing on it and it had been one of my most anticipated books… Just didn‘t come to life for me. At least the books are pretty! 2w
Gissy @Karisa Yes! I was asking myself if she used a ghostwriter 🤔 2w

I‘m extremely late for my 2025 year books reviews but this is something I‘m doing to keep a track of what I read this year. Yeap, this is for March 2025😳I really must add to my reading goals/challenges for next year to post my book reviews at the end of each month😂
March 2025 Book#1
I enjoyed this story, the mystery was interesting but with many convenient coincidences🙄😂Always reminding myself that I‘m reading the series as an adult 3.5 ⭐️ ⬇️

Librarybelle Baby steps are good! 2w
Ruthiella The coincidences in the Nancy Drew books are ridiculous! 😂 2w
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 2w

I'm catching up on this series. This is 16.5. A novella about Cindy, trying to solve a murder while Clair takes a holiday. A good Novella. #Read2025 @DieAReader

This was a fun mystery, nothing groundbreaking. I enjoyed the banter and Mart's huge words. However, I needed more horses 😂 The villain felt ridiculously obvious here, but the other aspects of the mystery (how, why, time capsule, clues, etc) were fun.

TheAromaofBooks #BobWhiteBuddies !!! I totally missed September's book and I apologize. September was just... not good. ANYWAY. Any thoughts on this one? I felt like Sammy was almost the anti-Dan story - an example of someone refusing to take advantage of the good paths being offered. I'd love to hear your thoughts!!

lauraisntwilder There's not a lot about horses, you're right, except for Bobby and Mr. Pony. Speaking of which, wouldn't Reagan have seen Hoppy in the woods when Mr. Pony got spooked? 3w

BookmarkTavern @lauraisntwilder Bobby says that Reagan was over working by the road, so he might not have seen it. 3w
BookmarkTavern Also, totally agree on needed more horses. Although I loved how supportive everyone was of Bobby earning how to ride. 3w
lauraisntwilder @BookmarkTavern Oh, that's right! That's why Bobby had to chase after the pony himself. 3w
