🎄 My season: ultimately I am a Christmas fiend. I love buying a new bauble each year for the tree and baking a new recipe which does include cocktails. I mastered eggnog last year so this year am focusing my efforts on homemade baileys (wish me luck).

❤️ My most loved trope: I am partial to the chosen one in fantasy but better yet is when the "chosen one" isn't actually the person you think it is, it was a misdirect and is in fact the so called villain of the story. I haven't come across this often but when I do I just LOVE it, especially if it's unexpected.

💍 My love interest (Hero or Villain): Villain all the way! Sarcastic. Morally grey. Potentially Murderous. Now, that's the perfect bookish love interest.

Thank you @boo_kishbeans for the tag, anyone who happens across this is nominated to take part though I have tagged a few of you as well.

Forever and a Day
Release date TBA soon 👀
Blurb:

With pain comes healing.
With love comes trust.
With a future comes forever, right?

Since five years old, Jules and Zander have been inseparable. Bound by an unbreakable bond that has seen them through the worst in life, hand in hand.
But their soul-deep connection and unwavering love only amplifies the nightmares haunting their future.
The threat of one unanswered question.
In order to finally claim their happy ever after, difficult conversations lie ahead.
But are they ready for the answers they seek?

Forever and a Day is a novella following on from Take My Hand.
In order to understand the content in this book, Take My Hand must be read first.

One color, three books 💜

Since the bestie @abbyrose.reads was in between two colors, I decided to do her other option! Thank you bestie for this tag, it was so much fun ✨

Tagging a few besties to see what colors they pick. But if you see this consider yourself tagged 🤭

QOTD: What color book do you have most of? 🌈
