No connection between these, I’m just behind

The Bride Test by Helen Hoang

Gossip Girl by Cecily von Ziegesar

The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy by Mackenzie Lee

September 3, 2019 by lowercasesee Leave a Comment

Holy moses I got so behind, and I still have one more I need to review but with the amount I’ve been talking about it offline, it definitely deserves its own review from me. So let’s get started. The Bride Test, by Helen Hoang I read and reviewed the first book in this series, The Kiss Quotient, and wasn’t so prude I wouldn’t read the second, so here we are.

Our protagonist (I’d argue he doesn’t really do enough to be considered an active hero) is Monty, a rascal of a lord’s son who is fated to inherit his father’s […]

Needs more vice and virtue

February 18, 2018 by yesknopemaybe Leave a Comment

3.5 stars. I kept hearing about this fun new book featuring queer kids living in historical England from several of my bookish friends. I’m not sure if I was in a weird mood or what, but my experience of this book was not exactly what I would call “fun.” I definitely enjoyed it, it’s just that if you tell a story about queer people in a historical setting, it’s definitely not just fun and games. That fact made this a bit of an anxious read […]
