The Only Purple House in Town
The Only Purple House in Town | Ann Aguirre
12 posts | 8 read | 12 to read
From New York Times bestselling author Ann Aguirre comes the magical town of St. Claire, where anything is possible... Iris Collins is the messy one in her family. The "chaos bunny." Her sisters are all wildly successful, while she can't balance her budget for a single month. It's no wonder she's in debt to her roommates. When she unexpectedly inherits a house from her great aunt, her plan to turn it into a B&B failsas most of her plans do. She winds up renting rooms like a Victorian spinster, collecting other lost souls...and not all of them are "human." Eli Reese grew up as the nerdy outcast in school, but he got rich designing apps. Now he's successful by any standards. But he's never had the same luck in finding a real community or people who understand him. Over the years, he's never forgotten his first crush, so when he spots her at a caf, he takes it as a sign. Except then he gets sucked into the Iris-verse and somehow ends up renting one of her B&B rooms. As the days pass, Eli grows enchanted by the misfit boarders staying in the house...and even more so by Iris. Could Eli have finally found a person and a place to call "home"?

This is a very cute story about finding family and finding yourself. I agree with other reviewers about how it wraps up quickly, and there are a few unclosed mysteries, like why did her great aunt leave Iris the house in the first place? But overall, I enjoyed this cozy romance.

If you need a cozy fantasy this is a good one. Nothing mind blowing. But Venkman and I liked it.

There are other books I should be reading, other things I should be doing, but we got a new hammock and the #hyggehourreadathon was what I needed, along with a cozy read. It‘s been wonderful with perfect weather. Looking forward to more time like this with a short work week. Happy hygge hour, my Litten friends ❤️

This paranormal romance with a side of found family was delightful! I loved everything about it and wish I was part of the family of violet gables!

Sorry to say this romance did not work for me. The main couple was bland and weirdly (because I like nice in romance)too nice for me and frankly boring. Some of the side characters were much more interesting and convincing. I almost didn‘t finish the book, glad I borrowed it from the library

gossamerchild Yes! I'm having that exact same issue with this book. 13mo

My phone does weird lighting stuff at night, but I swear this cover is actually #purple 🤣🤣. Not loving this book, which disappoints me greatly.

What a cute paranormal romance wrapped up in a found family! I loved all the characters and their stories. This is a part of a series but can be read as a stand alone. This is a story of self-discovery, acceptance and tolerance, and would be a good read-alike for fans of TJ Klune. Super sweet, this book is a warm hug that I think readers will really enjoy.
