Comment: I totally agree with you, the idols are were introverts, you can't tell by their stage performances but you can definitely tell they have inner creativity and imagination. Dojoon from the Rose is ENFP too, and what a cutie he is! I missed their concert in my area last October - I was already on vacation but I hope I get to see them next time! Thanks for joining the swap!! xxMuggleMom
Comment: YES, another TVXQ fan. Max with that lip ring in "Down", I was on the floor!!B1A4 "REWIND"- new to me and definitely added to my playlist now. "Fall In Love Again" by P1Harmony seems to be everywhere nowadays - I almost think I heard it in a store! Thanks for the new song by B1A4!! My list will be out shortly - thanks for joining the swap too! xxMuggleMom
Comment: I Love your list and I added SF9 to my playlist because I missed that one. I also had Shownu & Hyungwon on this list - Monsta X and all its members had a great success this year! Joohoney's music video before he went to do his enlistment was an awesome present. I love Skz album but it didn't grab me, only one or two songs make me swoon, lol!! Thanks for joining the swap!! xxMuggleMom
Comment: Thank you for sharing! I love Boyzone's 'Love me for a Reason'. I was gifted this album's CD, so it was nice to see them mentioned in the list.
Comment: Thank you! I enjyed it a lot! And I saw there were a couple of BTS songs in there that is cool! And I saw a super junior song - Had ot listened to that on before eventhough I know super junior :) Thank you for cool music.!
Comment: Thanks for you list. I discovered that I didn't read any novel/fiction this month -- all nonfiction -- we couldn't have more different reading taste and habits.
Comment: Hey! I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to rate you! Just put your songs on my Spotify-- lots of fun songs! You've got a good summer playlist on your hands! Apologies again!!
Comment: Oof, sorry I didn’t notice you sent this swap! I have never really listened to k-pop before so thanks for introducing me to some songs. Happy swapping!
Comment: I forgot "House of Sky & Breathe" on my list! "In Every Generation" was on my list too, will you be reading "Bloody Fool for Love" as well? Since that's another Buffy book? I'm the same way anything Buffy-related I'll read!
Response: I'll definitely be reading Bloody Fool for Love, Spike is my favourite character
Comment: I added The Red Palace to my tbr list -it definitely is a book I would gravitate towards and would love to read. Thanks for the awesome tip! Alice in Borderland art was so cool to see -I might check out the Netflix show you mention also. xxMuggleMom
Comment: I put your songs into a playlist on Spotify so that I could have a listen before I rated :) We must have a lot of the same taste! There were a few K-pop songs there that I didn't know so it was nice to try them out.
Comment: Karen, thank you for sharing your music. Wonderuful swap. I know some of your songs you mentioned. NKOTB and Take That...Wow..so much memories :)
Comment: Tysm for sharing your list! Most of the songs bring back memories :) My fave are Hang, Epiphany & Life Goes On 💕 My sister is a big fan of BTS or I should say army? 💙 Ty again & have a good day! 👋🏽
Comment: Thanks a lot for all your songs! I did like the one from Matchbox 20, the band was new to me, but I was really vibing with the song! Also I also put Take That on my list xD And I almost forgot about Nelly! So fun! :D

Thank you for taking the time to share your music with me. I really appreciate it! This made a great morning playlist.
Comment: Thanks for sharing and sorry for the late rate. I thought I'd done it already. Definitely some old faves and some new stuff to check out in Spotify!
Comment: THanks for the card, Do you have a book you'd recommend? I just finished an oldie--Water for Elephants--and I loved it! Highly recommend. I'll add a different one to your card.
Comment: Thanks for the fun PC and your book.
I first read the 1st line as ".. 'Meghan' picking our set list." I feel just like that about her. Not that I don't like her music taste but, she will play songs by the same artist that, after about ten, all start to sound the same.
Comment: I haven't read the Lie Tree. What I read sounded interesting, so I'll probably give it a try. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful day. bearnbabs
Comment: The stickers arrived today! I am so so happy with them <3 I will definitely get more when I run out but this should last me for quite a long time. Thanks for picking the pretty blue foil it is so lovely!
Comment: Thank you for the adorable stickers Karen! They arrived today and were a great early birthday present. It was so kind of you to include 2 sheets in your order. I love them both <3 Much love! Sophie
Comment: Hi Karen, Thank you so much for sending me 'Murder in the Secret Garden'. It's a brilliant choice, absolutely the sort of thing I like to read. I can hardly wait to start!
Comment: Hi Karen! Thanks for your thoughtful answers to the questions, they made great reading and I learnt some new things, too! It's great to meet others addicted to reading! Tracy
Comment: Thank you for sharing your love of books with me! Stephen King writes pure classic good scares. I remember after I read Cujo as a teen, I was paranoid about stray dogs for a good long while.
Comment: Oh My Gosh, thank you so much for your list! Your faves are very similar to the genre I usually prefer to read! I can't wait to start reading some of them!! I hope you have a lovely day :)
Comment: It's cool learning about ghost stories I've never heard of from other countries. I'd love to go on a ghost tour!! It's very interesting reading about this. Thank you!
Comment: Thank you so very much for joining my swap. I hope you enjoy reading everyones ghostly tales and for sharing your local legends with us!!! Happy swapping!!!
Comment: Thanks for the tea! I love t2 as well. They have one in Wellington near a bus stop I used to take when I lived there and I'd always go in for a sample or three ahaha. I have bought a few of their teas for myself over the years. Strawberries and cream,and Go go goa are my favourites ^_^
Comment: Sometimes writers take their time to build up the excitement in a book, which drives me a little crazy sometimes. An "A discovery of Witches" by
Deborah Harkness sounds like it maybe filled with action as the story unfolds. I look forward to reading it too.
Thank you for sharing your list of books with me.
Comment: Karen, I read Persuasion, too! How funny that we both read the same story. :-) And how unfortunate that neither of us loved it. :-( I too never really connected with any of the characters. I'm afraid this story will not last long in my memory as a result. Thank you for sharing! :-) <3
Comment: As I librarian, I am always interested in recommendations from others. I don't read a lot of fantasy but do read a lot of mysteries. Thanks!

Comment: Thanks for sharing your answers, it was fun to read. Veggie Lasagna is a reminder that I keep wanting to make lasagna with zucchini rather than pasta, but always forget when planning meals.
Comment: I see by the boy bands on your list that you are much younger than me, although I did see the Spin Doctors live a couple of years ago. That must make them officially an oldies group now. Thanks for the list!

Comment: Hey Karen your mail arrived safely today - I enjoyed reading it a lot. I also want to write a novel! I hope you get to open your dream tea shop - I will come to visit you in Australia then XD (I haven't been yet!) Best-est Regards from Hong Kong!
Comment: thanks for sharing -- sounds like you have a good place to live and enjoy walking. I hope you can enjoy your sister's wedding in spite of your anxiety. And I totally agree about Chris Pratt! Happy swapping1
