Welcome to Litsy!

Such a fun tale! As an ardent reader of Heyer Regency romances, this was a perfect fit! It is quite a tangled tale with duels, impersonators, and a complex family tree. 😄 Oh, and lovely friends!

I will definitely look for more Joan Aikens! Any recommendations for particular titles?

Good. Interesting take on the romanticism and romantic society in Regency Britain.

Loved this so much!!! I hate that my reading is so slow. It is on the way.

These Poor Relations stories are so entertaining! I just love them. I only have one more to go! #51 #BookSpin #6, #BFC23, #SERIESLOVE2023, #MagnificentlyMay, #SayMyName, #SociallyDistancedBookClubAtoZChallenge “C”

Infamous by Lex Croucher is a lesbian version of Bridgerton.

I enjoyed how inclusive this narrative was. I've posted a fuller review on my blog, John C Adams Reviews, for anyone who's interested:

I enjoyed Bateman‘s Ruthless Rivals series immensely, but I‘ve been underwhelmed by the Bow Street Bachelors. While this has plenty of snarky banter, there‘s an excessive amount of whiny, angsty internal dialogue from both MCs, much of which felt like filler to make a word count. I would have preferred more of the cat-and-mouse game between the MCs and less of the internal angst. The side characters are great, though.
