Tia Perry Please bear with me, I read a book in middle school, 2007- 2012 area do I'mworking with a very limited memory of this book. I can vaguely see the cover in my mind. White base, red lettering. There is a girl on the cover and I believe playing cards and a clock/pocket watch. But, from what I remember it is about a girl who can travel in time and she talks to goddess of love and i think a few others. I know this isnt much to go on so if I come to think of more, I will edit and add. This is driving me nuts. I've been trying to find this book for years now.

Tia Perry I've looked at every possible cover for Sophie's World, Florence, and it's not it.

Tia Perry FOUND!!!

Had a night terror again tonight and needed a distraction so I wouldn't fall back asleep immediately, so I went back on the search. I was way off, and I do apologize, but again, it was a book from middle school, possibly 5th grade elementary, and I've had two concussions since I've read it. ANYWHO, THE BOOK.

Juliet Dove, The Queen of Love by Bruce Coville
Published 2003
Genre:
JUVENILE FICTION: Fantasy & Magic
JUVENILE FICTION: Love & Romance
JUVENILE FICTION: Social Themes / General

Summary :
Juliet Dove is a girl who doesn't like to be noticed. But though she may be shy, she has a wickedly sharp wit. Whenever someone does take notice of her, she tears into the person with a savagery that's earned her the nickname Killer.

Juliet ends up leaving Mr. Elives' magic shop with Helen of Troy's amulet—that is, a virtual man magnet. Juliet doesn't know what she's got, but the boys in her class do—they start to notice her. Soon, every boy in town is swoony for her. Yet, much as she'd like to lose all the unwanted attention, she can't: The amulet won't come off!
