WITH LOVE, FROM EDEN! 💌 ⋆｡˚ ໑ — loading recommendations for siara

note: HIIII SIARAAAAAAAA ❤‍🩹 thank you so much for your request AND your congratulations, lovely! here's my recommendations for ya! i hope you enjoy them and hopefully, end up checking them out 🫂

୨୧ starry eyes — jenn bennett

⊹ former best friends turned enemies, zorie everhart and lennon mackenzie, end up abandoned out in the wilderness after a camping trip gone wrong. the pair are forced to find their way home together. as they travel through the backcountry of california, they are forced to work out their issues and rekindle their friendship... only to realize they never truly buried their true feelings for one another.

꒱ reasons for recommendation:

i know you love taylor swift and i can confirm she wrote willow about zorielennon 💁 (my source? delusion!)

as a daughter of aphrodite and romcom enthusiast, i believe you would really enjoy the progression of zorie and lennon's relationship! their connection is so strong (and it's ultimately because of their friendship beforehand) and their banter would have any aphrodite kid kicking their feet, twirling their hair, and giggling like nobody's business.

୨୧ a starlet's secret to a sensation afterlife — kendall kulper

⊹ henrietta newhouse is a budding starlet with a terrifyingly thrilling secret: she can see the ghosts haunting the film studio she works at. when forced to fake a relationship with the anomaly, declan collins, a man completely immune to injury, the couple takes it upon themselves to investigate and uncover the messy truth of hollywood's biggest, richest names.

꒱ reasons for recommendation:

i also know you love olivia rodrigo! this book and its subject matter reminded me a lot of lacy and can't catch me now. can't catch me now, specifically, was the song i found myself connecting to while reading. it serves as the ideal anthem for the women in this book.

୨୧ divine rivals — rebecca ross

⊹ iris winnow and roman kitt are rival writers, both working at the same printing press and competing for the same position. unbeknownst to iris, the pair are divinely intertwined. with her brother missing in action, iris finds solace in writing letters and slipping them underneath her closet door, only for them to end up in roman's possession. when he decides to anonymously respond to her latest letter, the two forge a bond and companionship strong enough to follow iris to the front lines, in search of her brother.

꒱ reasons for recommendation:

irisroman is the most invisible string couple to ever invisible string. i'm telling you RIGHT now they invented romance. nobody's doing it like them!

when i took a look at your account, i saw that you had "dear reader" as your inbox title and naturally i knew i had to add this book 😌 (iris winnow is so dear reader coded, you're going to love her!)

the romance is romancing SO. HARD. here i'm telling you they invented romance and patented it

୨୧ one for my enemy — olivie blake

⊹ a romeo and juliet retelling revolving around the two most powerful, rivaling witch families in modern-day new york, with slavic folklore woven throughout the storyline.

꒱ reasons for recommendation:

honestly? just vibes!

the cover matches the aesthetic of your account

it felt like it would appeal to both being a daughter of aphrodite and a legacy of hades.

oh how i love a tragic romeo and juliet retelling that's going to make me go through the seven stages of grief a hundredfold 😍

୨୧ a million junes — emily henry

⊹ june o'donnell has always been raised to stay away from the angerts. however, when june ends up accidentally meeting saul angert, june begins to question why her father had such a deep-rooted hatred for the angerts. as the pair begins to uncover their shared family history, june is left wondering if she really knew her dad, and the rest of her family after all.

꒱ reasons for recommendation:

the banter was phenomenal here! i don't think this technically qualifies as a "rom-com" book or anything like that BUT! saul and june's interactions were genuinely funny.

this 👏 book 👏 is 👏 so 👏 august 👏 coded 👏 to 👏 me 👏 (but let's ignore the title of the book for a second since it's the wrong month)

such an emotional read! the depiction of grief is such an accurately written, raw, and vulnerable picture i was in tears a few times 😭

favourite books read in 2021: one for my enemy by @olivieblake

In New York City where we lay our scene, two rival witch families fight to maintain control of their respective criminal ventures. On one side of the conflict are the Antonova sisters, each one beautiful, cunning, and ruthless, and their mother, the elusive supplier of premium intoxicants known only as Baba Yaga. On the other side, the influential Fedorov brothers serve their father, the crime boss known as Koschei the Deathless, whose community extortion ventures dominate the shadows of magical Manhattan. After twelve years of tenuous coexistence, a change in one family’s interests causes a rift in the existing stalemate. When bad blood brings both families to the precipice of disaster, fate intervenes with a chance encounter, and in the aftershocks of a resurrected conflict, everyone must choose a side. As each of the siblings struggles to stake their claim, fraying loyalties threaten to rot each side from the inside out. If, that is, the enmity between empires doesn’t destroy them first.
