Lesliereadsalot This puzzle looks hard! And that‘s coming from someone who does 3000 piece puzzles regularly without looking at the picture! 2mo
Karisimo @Lesliereadsalot I definitely needed the picture for this one! 2mo
Lesliereadsalot Really impressed 1mo

willaful Bare chest, that one should be easy. 😏 3mo
kspenmoll Please add me- I participated a couple of years ago but not last year, so I‘m not sure if I‘m knew or just you have to renew me. Thanks. 3mo
TheAromaofBooks @kspenmoll - We haven't been tagging everyone each month - we just made the boards available to download at any time, and then I post around the 1st of the month just as a lil reminder 😊 3mo

The Baudelaire siblings find themselves at the last safe place and must observe the people gathering to decide if they are villains or volunteers. But they come to realize that things are not always so black and white.
This has always been my favorite installment of the series. The Hotel Denouement is such a fun setting, with a ridiculous organization system, and many previous characters make reappearances to help or hinder the children's task.

Alright, this book has been the hilarious subject of many of my book friends so I finally caved & read it. It was ridiculous in the best guilty pleasure way. Although the premise of a minotaur milking farm is silly to begin with, the romance itself was actually decent and well developed. So much so that I immediately read A Blue Ribbon Romance which tells the story from Rourke's POV. The rest of the series follows other human/creature pairings ↩️

peanutnine and I'll probably continue them later this year #SeriesLove2024 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView #ISpy mythical creature, blurred background @TheAromaofBooks 3mo

Decent romance. Didn't particularly wow me but I didn't hate it. I liked the insight into Indian culture but wished there was more discussion about Diwali itself. Despite being in the title, it felt glossed over. I read this with my irl bookclub, which was interesting since none of my friends generally read romance so it was funny to hear their thoughts on some of the cliches and tropes that I'm more used to as a romance reader

This felt like Sherlock Holmes with a queer sci-fi twist. Set in the future, when humans have colonized Jupiter after Earth is no longer habitable by living on ringed platforms that circle the planet. Mossa investigates a disappearance & calls on her old flame for help since the missing man is a fellow scholar at the university. Older does 'show, don't tell' very well and the setting is so immersive (& cozy) despite little explanations off the bat

peanutnine Book 2 comes out next month and I'm excited for more in this world #SeriesLove2024 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView #BookChain 'the' in title #ISpy circle @TheAromaofBooks #LGBTQ2024 white lettering @Kenyazero 3mo

A fun one! This is an I Spy version, with the full poem printed inside the covers. The book itself is composed of themed images, such as “Not a Creature Was Stirring” and “It Must Be St. Nick”, with lists of items hidden in the photos. I found it very relaxing to do a page before bed 😄

Hey friends!! In case you missed it @Clwojick and I are hosting #ISpyBingo yet again!! This year we have already created the boards for the ENTIRE YEAR so you can download them at your leisure from this folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/194F-B5hCHpDSBfHiO5KnbYxoQmXgKJl-?usp=sha...

I just finished adding this challenge to StoryGraph, so if you want to track your progress there, the link will be in the first comment ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) SG Link: https://app.thestorygraph.com/reading_challenges/9f959770-56cc-4791-83ca-78ad595...

I've entered the full year of prompts there, but not any of the bonus boards.

Please note that I did find two typos on the December board - “sticking“ should be “stocking“ and “now“ should be “snow“ 😂 We went through soooo many prompts making these!!

I'm tagging last year's participants because I didn't make an official sign up post this ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) year, so sorry if you are getting tagged when you aren't interested, or if you get missed when you are!! I'll tag @LitsyEvents as well so hopefully the word gets out!!

Let us know if you have any questions - don't forget to tag us as you find items!!

Reminder: You can choose if you want to do one board per month or work on all 300 prompts all year!!

BookishMadHatter Are the bonus boards meant for a specific time or just all year round? 4mo
TheAromaofBooks @BookishMadHatter - Completely up to you!! You can try them during a specific month that you feel matches the theme, or work on them throughout the year along with the main boards. 4mo
