Thanks so much ...And the answer is: Urban Fantasy!<br /><br />Thanks so much for all of your guesses and feedback. The concept of re-living of the same year over and over will be magic based using tarot cards, not a time machine or any sort of paranormal phenomenon. I already removed a few word choices I worried skewed towards science fiction. Sounds like I need to take out a few more.Jennifer Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00151358290264027095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615675676021392217.post-42485383456706292072014-08-29T12:03:28.774-04:002014-08-29T12:03:28.774-04:00Fantasy.

Love the idea of using tarot card magic to change identities. Reminiscent of the Faceless Men of Braavos from GoT, but in a modern setting. I would have liked a bit of expansion on the Erin identity, though I'm sure you'll get into that part later. I'm picturing a little match girl archetype just because of orphan+matches.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07638991547671653483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3615675676021392217.post-66260857761704663802014-08-27T18:08:18.156-04:002014-08-27T18:08:18.156-04:00Thriller.
