CBR14 Bingo: Gaslight (Marian was lied to and manipulated by the duke, book also set in the Georgian era) Spoiler warning! I’m going to do my best to review this book without spoiling major plot points from The Queer Principles of Kit Webb or this book, but if you want to remain fully unspoiled, you’d probably want to skip this review until you’ve actually read the book. Which you should (read the book, I mean), it’s absolutely marvellous. Marian Hayes, believed to be the Duchess […]

This is a perfect novel. #CBRBINGO – Scandal

I originally said that I would have a review up later that same day I finished the book, after I stopped swooning, but the swooning never really stopped, and then I got anxious about trying to make this review live up to how much I loved the book, and then I just gave up and said I’d get to it later. Fast forward two months, let’s just get something out there so we can all move on with our lives. The short version of this […]

I loved this book. I loved the very concept of The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes when it was announced, I loved wondering what the story could be. When we get to the end of The Queer Principles of Kit Webb it isn’t a cliffhanger, but there are a lot of loose ends which still need to be tied up – this is the book that does that tying, while unraveling and re-weaving a few threads of its own. So, what is this book? The […]

Excellent sequel (not follow up) to the first book

CW from author: blood, main character who survived dangerous pregnancy and for whom any future pregnancy would be dangerous (note: there is no pregnancy in this book), past arrest and imprisonment, gun violence, non-graphic allusion to sexual assault, elderly parent with Alzheimer’s disease, postpartum depression I might be rounding up from 4.5 to 5, but I’m so happy with this book that we’re going to five star it. I think I’ve been a bit stingy with the 5s in favor of 4s, so there might […]

I thought The Queer Principles of Kit Webb made me swoon, but I was unprepared for the vertigo inducing swoon of The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes. First I’m going to share two quotes and these ought to be all the advertisement you need to sell you on this book. Next, I’m going to warn you that you cannot read this gem of a book without reading reading it’s predecessor, The Queer Principles of Kit Webb, and then I’m going to add some spoilers for Kit Webb.
