Petals & Pages: A WOW Wednesday

Welcome to this week's What's On Wednesdays, hosted right here by Lesley at Let's Get Lost in A Good Book!

I’m keeping our weekly series—WOW—growing with a beautiful new theme: books that feature botanical names in either the title or the author's name. My thumb is definitely not green, but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate the beauty of a flower, even just in name form.  Since we are moving into the heart of the season, it felt like the perfect way to let our reading list flourish and start this journey with you all. Here are three books that are on my TBR, each one featuring a floral name in some aspect. 

Scarlett and the Kiss Thief by Ivy Smoak - I have absolutely loved every book I’ve read by Ivy Smoak, and this title is simply blooming with potential! It’s the perfect Young Adult romance to tuck into your bag for a sunny afternoon spent tending to your own garden beds.

King of Nothing by Aurora Rose Reynolds - I am always ready to pick up anything by Aurora Rose Reynolds, and this one fits our botanical theme just perfectly! It’s a thorny, captivating read that is sure to grow on you.

The Lilac House by Barbara Josselsohn - Since the lilac is state flower of my New Hampshire, I was immediately drawn to this title! Even though the setting is the Adirondacks, this story has a cozy, hometown feel that makes it the perfect botanical pick no matter where you live.
