Happy BOOK BIRTHDAY to... WISH YOU WEREN'T HERE by Gracie Ruth Mitchell - REVIEW!


Tuesdays bring the GOOD STUFF as far as readers are concerned, and today is no different because we're celebrating a BOOK BIRTHDAY!  It's for the latest title by new to me author Gracie Ruth Mitchell, and stars a Romance that's part contemporary and part fantasy, but full of MAGIC and LOVE.  Ready for the next must read on your TBR?  Wish granted!

About the book...

Clementine has accidentally freed a British genie from his ancient British teapot, and she’s not thrilled about it.

However, appalled by his living conditions—and grudgingly impressed by his jawline—she vows to set him free. But before he can join the human world, the genie must prove he can live like a human—and he must do it in one month, or he’ll fade away for good. As Clementine and the genie embark on a series of How to be Human lessons, and as they pretend to date in order to discourage the men trying to woo her thanks to a wish gone wrong, the two of them discover that being human is more complex than they expected—and that love can be found between the unlikeliest of pairs.




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Can you imagine your wishes coming true?
Can you imagine the genie looking like a hot British escapee from across the pond ready to do your wishly bidding with a slight air of superiority, a dash of genie mystery, and the potential for more?  Can you imagine your much loved but force of nature aunt taking control of first said wish in the name of caring for you?  Can you now imagine that wish going wrong, but with a curiously not-exactly-unwanted outcome?  Exactly.

Stepping into this one was like being welcomed in by friends and family.  Aunt Flossie was a force, but with so much love and good intentions for Clementine.  Clementine was a doll, happy with life the way it was, and not looking for anything different, anywhere better, or anyone to change things up.  The surprise visitor, in the middle of the night no less, throws her for a loop to be certain, but the ripple effects of the encounter, the 'what ifs' proposed, and the somewhat forced proximity create laughable moments, multiple meet cutes, and the chance at a happily ever after for more than one heart involved.  You'll get caught up in the family dynamics, smile along at the lessons in humanity that Tangerine, I mean, Alaric, has to stick to in order to find his new path, and lose yourself the magic of it all.  It's said that opposites attract, but sometimes those that might seem the most different at the start are actually the most alike at heart.

A great pick for Romance fans whether Contemporary or Fantasy because we can always use a little more sparkle in our lives!

About the author...


Gracie is a Midwest girl who relocated to a tiny, snow-filled Idaho town. She attempted her first novel in the fifth grade and never looked back; now she spends her days trying to keep track of her children, her dog, and her book characters. She's also lucky enough to be married to her favorite man in the world.

If Gracie had any free time, she would spend it reading, watching K-dramas, and taking hot baths. As it currently stands, however, you'll usually find her staring glassy-eyed at the computer screen, trying to get her characters to behave themselves. Sweet romantic comedy is her passion!
