Gentlemanly and Lady-like Guides to 18th century living

The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee

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

June 24, 2019 by Caitlin_D 1 Comment

Guys. The last (not even) 30 days of my life have been bonkers- like I would not be upset if you did not believe me when I say all of the following things have occurred since May 29th: I got in a horrific car accident. I walked away unharmed despite the airbags in my totaled car failing to deploy. My husband and I are in the process of buying and selling houses which is wonderful. We just found a (dream) house faster than planned which meant we […]

In the immortal words of Ron Swanson: “Never half-ass two things. Whole-ass one thing.”

The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee

May 5, 2019 by Dusty Highway Leave a Comment

I pulled Mackenzi Lee’s The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue off the shelf just before leaving on a trip to Paris, partly because I knew Paris featured in at least some of the action and also because I had just finished The Song of Achilles and felt like reading another YA boy-boy romance. But mostly it just seemed like a perfect vacation book, easy and breezy, and at least for that, it did not disappoint. Henry “Monty” Montague is the ne’er-do-well son of an […]

Mostly, this book just did not work for me

March 12, 2018 by Malin 2 Comments

2.5 stars Henry “Monty” Montague is a young bisexual lord sent off on a grand tour of Europe, accompanied by his best friend, Percy (who Monty has a massive crush on) and Felicity, Monty’s younger sister. For the first part of their journey, they are accompanied by an elderly tutor, but once they leave Paris, hijinks really ensue due to very poor decisions made on Monty’s part and soon the three young people are left to fend for themselves, on a crazy adventure through much […]

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 […]

I hate when this happens.

December 14, 2017 by scootsa1000 5 Comments

Have you ever expected to love something in pop culture — simply because everyone that you know and trust has loved it before you — and then been totally crushed when you just don’t? Recently, we rented the movie The Big Sick. I had been waiting for weeks to see it and just knew I would love it. I think Kumail Nanjiani is hilarious and was obsessed with the story about how he fell in love with his wife. So I thought I would love […]
