Keeping The Castle | Patrice Kindl

A bit of I Capture The Castle plus some Austen heroines. Our beautiful heroine is determined to marry rich to help save her family's crumbling estate, but her overly forthright tongue keeps frightening away prospects. When a handsome baron and his financially savvy cousin come to town, things are looking up - even if one of them is terribly annoying with his bluntness...

A cute regency YA, with an Austen loving heroine.
I enjoyed this read-along with #Pembertonlittens and #JaneAdjacent hosted by @StayCurious .

I often think I don't have time to read a book, but doing a chapter or 2 a day really does let you sneak in a whole book in no time.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! The romance 💝 was beautiful between Vicky and Tom. The stakes were high! And there were a couple twists I didn‘t see coming!

This was a fun romance with layers of humor & danger, not to mention some heavy topics. I liked Cohen‘s weaving of Austen novels into the story. There were times Vicky drove me a little crazy, but given the situation she faced from her family - having to #BiteTheBullet and marry - I‘ll give her a little leeway. Very charming. Thanks for hosting, @StayCurious ! #PemberLittens #JaneAdjacent

#ReadAway2024 #FabulousFebruary #20in4 #readathon

Like several of our #Pemberlitten #JaneAdjacent group, I had to finish up so I could find out what happened. I quite enjoyed this YA Regency romance romp. The characters were likable, there was lots of drama & I loved the nods to Jane Austen. I really liked the author‘s second book too—a gender-swap retelling of My Fair Lady set in a foodie world in 1830‘s England, so I‘ll tag it below. ⬇️

KristiAhlers I loved this one too! It was so much fun to read. 2mo

#Pemberlittens #JaneAdjacent I had to finish the last 4 chapters - honestly the last chunk of this book sped by and it was hard to resist! I thoroughly enjoyed the ending - the villain got what was coming to him, peace was made between Vicky‘s suitors, the brothers, and the sisters, and alls well that ends well. ⬇️

StayCurious I really enjoyed this book which was liberally sprinkled with references to Jane but also acknowledged that you can‘t live your life in a story - sometimes you have to lift your head and take a peek at reality. Grumble 😄 2mo
mcctrish I share your grumble 👎🏻👎🏻 reality 😣🤣 but I thoroughly enjoyed this book ❤️❤️ thank you so much for leading us 😘😘 2mo

Librarybelle This was a great choice! I plan to read the last two chapters and the author‘s note tomorrow! Thanks for leading again! 2mo
CogsOfEncouragement Wow, what a villainous twist to the duel. I didn‘t see that coming.
No! I thought it a great mistake when Vicky said there was no time to wake anyone at the end of chapter 28, so not surprised something happened.
Oh, even after Silby shot Carmichael, I hadn‘t realized he had actually tried to kill Vicky with the runaway curricle. Poor Vicky! Talk about a bad date.

CogsOfEncouragement Thea deciding to cover up the truth surprised me a bit. We live in a time where that would be extremely difficult to do. They of course did not have the means to collect evidence as we do now, so this family could more easily hide the uncomfortable details.
Very nice HEA.

CrowCAH Same. I listened to the last four chapters today. I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Thanks for leading us in our read along! And yes we can‘t live in a book, but as the characters did in the text, we can learn through fiction situations. I like how this incorporated many Austen character tropes and quotes at the beginning of the chapters from her novels. 2mo
julieclair This book was a delight! Loved the ending. And… I refuse to acknowledge that I can‘t live in a book. 😉 2mo
