I forgot to post this yesterday but I read for 2hours and then went to sleep. My company were a herbal tea and orange with cinnamon candle.

This was a sweet YA romance, lots of high school angst and drama, and a bit cheesy at times, but still a fun read. The main character, Mim, has a super-elevated sense of smell, and can actually smell people‘s emotions. She and her mother come from a long line of aromateurs - “love witches” who make elixirs that can open the path to love. Listening to Mim describe the scent various emotions was interesting!
A fun #SundayBuddyRead selection!

Read for #SundayBuddyRead I enjoyed this sweet YA romance-perfect for February. It‘s not as strong as the author‘s historical fiction but still engaging. Teenage “love witch” Mim & her mother are the last two living aromateurs whose calling is to mix scent potions to help people fall in love but can‘t fall in love themselves for fear of losing their abilities. Loved Mim & the plant & scent lore.

This was a fun read but not my favorite from this author. While it was an interesting story, it got a bit cheesy for my taste. Read for #sundaybuddyread and doubled as my #doublespin

Light pick. Lee‘s YA novel about a girl, her mom, and their special ability to make potions of sorts to help with love has the feel of teen emotions, including the complicated mother-daughter relationship, and of course love. I was really invested in the elixir creations and the “heart notes” Mim and her mom could detect for emotions. So fascinating - a smell for everything, from worry to happiness. #SundayBuddyRead

#SundayBuddyRead #ReadAway2024 This was a lovely book and I look forward to tomorrow‘s discussion of the final section. I don‘t remember who said it was YA, but it didn‘t feel like YA to me. It feels like a tale of family and friendship. It‘s a coming of age tale. Yes, there‘s teenage angst but it feels more mature than YA. I‘m not sure if I‘m making any sense. One day during the week I read an article about the new Broadway musical The (cont)⬇️

My blooming cactus made me think of Layla‘s Sacrifice in the story. This was a delightful YA romance, it was light with the usual teenage angst, mean girl tropes but with a dash of magic in the form of aromateurs ( people/witches who can weave natural things - flowers/spices/herbs - into elixirs/potions to help people fall in love. I did love the garden descriptions and smell notes and idea that an elixir could fan the flames of love

This is very cute. Discussion Sunday.

I enjoyed this story of Mim and her mom Dahlia, who are aromateurs. Mim is a teenager trying to find her own path both at school and with her friends, hoping that she can make that work with the expectations set forth for her by her mom, and generations ago by her aromateur ancestors.

While this earlier Lee book isn‘t as polished as the others I‘ve read, it was still a very good read. I enjoyed the story of aromateurs and the characters she creates.

My first Stacey Lee book and it won't be my last. It has been a while since I've enjoyed a YA book. It was light and cute. I really liked the whole idea of aromateurs and that feelings have certain scents.

Sadly I don‘t get to keep this around another week, so I read the last section right after we finished our #sundaybuddyread chat yesterday. I found the way things wrapped up satisfying for the most part, but also predictable for the most part. I‘ll keep the rest of my opinions to myself and see everyone Sunday 💙❤️🩵

My reading is over for today. I'm too tired and tomorrow is work day. I read for an hour only...the whole week didn't read so much. Hope the next week will be better.
Still reading the tagged book for #SundayBuddyRead

It's Carnival weekend so I didn't have much time to read. We went to masquarade carnival. I was Minnie Mouse and my daughter was Gabby (from Gabby's dream dollhouse).👹🤡
So my reading started 20min late tonight but I read for 2hours. I decided to join #sundaybuddyread and enjoy with Mimosa smells adventure.

Getting ready for #sundaybuddyread I‘m just smiling the whole time I read this ( between bites of course 🤣😋)

I mean, Come On!!!!!

Getting ready for #sundaybuddyread THE SUN IS SHINING! It‘s a miracle ❤️💕 I‘m going to read a bit and then get outside and overdose on vitamin D. So far I‘m liking this cute romantic YA story

I probably won't be ready for tomorrow's #sundaybuddyread discussion because my guy will be waking up any minute now. However, I just opened the copy I ordered from BookOutlet and found this nice surprise inside.
