Spell the Month in Books: November
Hello all!
Welcome to something new and fun, something I will place under the tag category: Spell The Month in Books!
I found this one on One Book More and it looked so much fun so I had to participate as well! I wanted to do my TBR, physical TBR (library or owned books), see if I could find all the letters. I did! It took some effort and puzzling to find all the books. In the end I have 5 Dutch books and 3 English books. I am delighted that I had two picture books from the library for the Es, because I was this close to just calling November Novmbr. ๐
I am going to show you guys a picture of my stack and after that I will show the book covers + blurb (for the Dutch-Dutch books I translated the blurb for you (which was tons of fun btw), for the English>Dutch translated books (2 of them) I picked the original blurb).
Oh, and the original creator of this tag is Reviews From The Stacks!
And yes, I may do this tag more often, it all depends on my TBR, which is generally pretty tiny, unless I raided the libraries. ๐

You’ll have to help Alien back up into space, because aliens don’t belong on Earth . . . do they?
This sequel to bestsellers There’s a Monster in Your Book and There’s a Dragon in Your Book is packed full of interactive fun, with a gentle message about openness, acceptance and inclusion that will speak to the very youngest readers.
Chloe Wang is nervous to introduce her parents to her boyfriend, because the truth is, she hasnโt met him yet either. She hired him from Rent for Your โRents, a company specializing in providing fake boyfriends trained to impress even the most traditional Asian parents.
Drew Chanโs passion is art, but after his parents cut him off for dropping out of college to pursue his dreams, he became a Rent for Your โRents operative to keep a roof over his head. Luckily, learning protocols like โType C parents prefer quiet, kind, zero-PDA gesturesโ comes naturally to him.
When Chloe rents Drew, the mission is simple: convince her parents fake Drew is worthy of their approval so theyโll stop pressuring her to accept a proposal from Hongbo, the wealthiest (and douchiest) young bachelor in their tight-knit Asian-American community.
But when Chloe starts to fall for the real Drew, who, unlike his fake persona, is definitely not โrent-worthy, her carefully curated life begins to unravel. Can she figure out what she wants before she loses everything?
