Dangerous Alliance: An Austentacious Romance | Jennieke Cohen

#Pemberlittens #JaneAdjacent Feb 12: Ch.1: what an interesting way to start our story! We meet Vicky who does not spend her days indoors in the parlour, but rather works hard to help her father run their estate. Then, just as she sees a man from her past who broke all ties with her inexplicably, she is attacked by a masked villain! And the chase is on! But it ends with Vicky‘s pride - as well as her backside - getting injured. ⬇️

StayCurious There‘s an allusion as to why Tom broke ties with Vicky 5 years ago. I‘m curious as to what happened and why his father sent him to the continent. ⬇️ 2mo

StayCurious Ch.2: Vicki‘s sister has escaped her abusive husband - in a time when you could be essentially trapped in an unhappy marriage, she was brave to leave. But will she be forced to return to him? Vicki‘s morning adventures take a backseat to her sister‘s suffering. 2mo

Librarybelle The action starts right away…I was not expecting that! 2mo

peanutnine I like how this has jumped to the plot right away. I'm not fond of Vicky just yet, she's so childish. I wasn't expecting her character to be so young. Hopefully we see her grow 2mo

CogsOfEncouragement What a start. I‘m very interested in Tom‘s secrets. I‘m concerned for the wellbeing of Thea and Vicky‘s father as he confronts Dain. Also quite concerned for all of them since Vicky was attacked on their property. Well, I‘m invested in the story! 2mo

LiseWorks Vicki is only 17, I don't find her immature at all, Tom is 19, so young to be a Lord of an estate. I can't wait to see how this works out. 2mo

mcctrish @Librarybelle me either! #startyourengines 2mo

willaful Very interested to discover Tom's backstory.

I'm curious why Vicki's father needs her help -- they seem to be well off? Or maybe it's all a front.

What do you think of Vicki's conclusions about what Elizabeth Bennett would say? I'm not convinced. 2mo

CrowCAH Why would the masked man hit her over the head? He had gone undetected while she repaired the stone fence. I feel for her sister. She was very brave. Hopefully she doesn‘t have to go back to the abuse. 2mo

BarkingMadRead What a crazy start! I am dying to know Tom‘s story and I‘m worried that Thea will have to go back home! 2mo

julieclair Whew! We‘re off and running! So many different plot lines in just the first two chapters. I‘m intrigued! 2mo

Cheshirecat913 Wow, I was not expecting the 'off and running' start! I like it though, throw us right into. 2mo

Lady Mechanika, Vol. 5: Clockwork Assassin | Joe Benitez, M. M. Chen

And we are off! Starting my #24in48readathon with a graphic novel before switching to an audiobook and maybe a nap so I can power through the first night/day. For some reason the Litsy database has this listed as Vol5 but hey, it‘s an amazing series nonetheless. How many other littens are joining me this weekend? #startyourengines #24in48 #readathon

RebL I‘m also doing the readathon & also starting with a graphic novel. I‘ve never made a full 24 & doubt I will this time. But I plan to have fun. 5y

Lizpixie @RebL good luck! Graphic novels are great for readathons, they give your brain a chance to breathe in between full sized books. And as long as you‘re reading that‘s the most important thing, not how many hours you do🙌 5y
