Bookseller recommendation
“I wanted to spend more time with the characters, the magical realism, the growth and meta narrative (I have to assume because this was my first Ashley Poston book). I will definitely be reading more of her books. As a fantasy reader I guess I should’ve known a romance book with magical realism would intrigue me. Plus a grumpy-sunshine pairing; love Elsy and Anders.”

“Take me to Eloraton! This book gave me all the comfort of watching The Princess Bride for the 20th time--knowing each character's story gets a fitting end, and true love will vanquish over all. Not mention, reveling in a pretty spectacular twist when we learn who our main man really is. Poston knows her romancelandian audience is able to grasp the backstories of each of the side characters and builds a whole town inside of that. I just love how that trust lends itself to the fullness of their characters, and to a cast that you feel like you already know. And much like what I love about Emily Henry's last couple of stories, Eileen's friendship with Pru is the true, steady love story of the novel and shines bright. This novel has such a gem of a foundation that is only strengthened by the unexpected turns, earnest romanticism, and (my favorite of all) an unabashed return to flowery compliments. Like yes Anders give me sonnets, and monologuing, and swoony eye contact--this is a romance after all! Just absolutely stunning! ”

LOVE IS STRANGER THAN FICTION …
***
📚Have you ever found yourself lost in a good book … literally?📚
Eileen Merriweather loves a good love story. The fictional kind, anyway. After all, imaginary men don’t break your heart.
That’s why she’s so excited for her annual book club retreat – instead, when her car breaks down en route, Eileen finds herself in Eloraton. A town where every meet is cute, the rain always comes in the afternoon, and the bookshop is always curated with impeccable taste.
It feels too good to be true … because Eloraton is the setting of her favourite romance series. And Eileen is sure she must be here to bring the town its storybook ending.
But there’s one character she can’t place. The grumpy bookshop owner with mint-green eyes, and an irritatingly sexy mouth. He does not want Eileen to finish this story, but how else can she find her happily-ever-after?
The next magical rom-com from the New York Times bestselling author of The Seven Year Slip and The Dead Romantics!
