Weekend Tidbits {#5} The Sequel!

Wow, it has been some time since I did a Weekend Tidbit. So, as usual I'll talk about anything at all (Book, food/interesting news related) and at the very end I’ll name a place that I wish was a book setting and my choice of tea for the day. (Links for Weekend Tidbits can be found on the Features Page.)

On Monday August 10th, Kimberly Karalius and Swoon Reads announced the title and synopsis for her second novel, the sequel to Love Fortunes and Other Disasters. I'm really excited for it and can't wait to get a copy next year. You can check out the announcement post HERE 

About Love Charms and Other Catastrophes (Synopsis from Goodreads)...

Aspiring love charm maker Hijiri Kitamura is excited to be back in Grimbaud for her sophomore year-she's heard that several new love charm makers have set up shops in town, and she's eager to see if she can learn anything from them. Yet, the news of an upcoming charm making competition fills her with dread. Grimbaud has just started to recover from the tyranny of Zita's love fortunes and it would be too easy for the winning charm maker to step into Zita's shoes. The only solution is for Hijiri, with the support of her friends and fellow rebels, to win the contest herself.

Unfortunately, that's easier said than done, especially when Love itself has decided to meddle in Hijiri's life. Concerned that it's favorite charm maker has given up on finding a boyfriend of her own, Love takes matters into its own hands and delivers the perfect boyfriend to her in a gift-wrapped box...literally...

Don't forget to check out my review of the first book, Love Fortunes and Other Disasters, and my Interview with Kimberly Karalius.

Today's pick is Balboa Park, San Diego, California. This is one place I have been (the picture for my Goodreads account is one that I took). As usual, you can check out the Places I Wish Were Book Settings board over on Pinterest to see today's location.

My choice for today is Jasmine Green Tea, which is one of my favorite flavors.
