#HRCYED TBR Game
This is what I’m reading for the HRCYED TBR Game Challenge.
I chose to use the Star Hop Challenge from Stephanie’s Bookverse. https://youtu.be/2IcyUiZ5o0Q?si=xNxLUP4VuOx87R4A
- Book I Know Nothing About: Eats of Eden – Tabitha Blankenbiller (I do know that I met the author at AWP a few years ago which is where I got this book. It’s signed and everything! I just got it based on the cute pin-up model on the front cover and the pun. Don’t judge me.)
