Synopsis

Iris Collins is the messy one in her family—the chaos bunny. Her sisters are all wildly successful while she can't balance her budget for a single month. It's no wonder she's in debt to her roommates. When she unexpectedly inherits a house from her great aunt, her plan to turn it into a B&B fails—as most of her plans do. She winds up renting rooms like a Victorian spinster, collecting other lost souls...and not all of them are human. Eli Reese grew up as the nerdy outcast in school, but he got rich designing apps. Now he's successful by any standards. But he's never had the same luck in finding a real community or people who understand him. Over the years, he's never forgotten his first crush, so when he spots her at a café, he takes it as a sign. Except then he gets sucked into the Iris-verse and somehow ends up renting one of her B&B rooms. As the days pass, Eli grows enchanted by the misfit boarders staying in the house…and even more so by Iris. Could Eli have finally found a person and a place to call home?

So. Well. I have lots of thoughts on this one. Buckle up. The Cover: This is what sold the book to me. Later found out it was the 4th book in a series, but I have zero interest in any of the books before this one, so I pre-ordered just this one. I love the purple and the overall cozy vibe of the cover......more

Goodreads review by Yackie on March 29, 2024

This has to be the most boring book I’ve ever read in my life. Nothing in this book happens. The paranormal aspect is a lazy allegory for marginalized people, there is a MAGA group called HAPI, there is a Karen. It’s just. If I wanted to read this book but TLDR I would go back to tumblr circa 2013 a......more
