This was fantastic. It was really fun to learn about the wild times in Regency and late Georgian Christmas parties. These rantipole doings are not to be found in Austen, who tries a little too hard to be respectable. Miss Revel disapproves of all this kissing and lap-sitting with a sly wink. CW for 2 problematic 12th Night characters.

Kicking off my participation in #wintergames as part of the #snowflakesquad is my December TBR. Strictly speaking, this isn't my entire TBR. I don't plan specific books ahead really so much as pick from the towering heap that is my StoryGraph TBR. These are just the ones that for whatever reason I definitely intend to read in full next month. The tagged book might end up being read live on my Twitch channel.

PuddleJumper I'm up to Draakenwood as well. Keep forgetting I've got that series to finish 😅 12mo
Faranae @PuddleJumper Maelstrom dragged for me because I hated one of the plot elements and saw it coming early on. Fallow went by in no time (Griffin books always do!). It would be nice to finish the series this year, but we'll see! 12mo
Ash.on.the.line A good variety here. 😄 I try to plan out a list then don‘t ever follow it. 12mo
Faranae @Ash.on.the.line Yeah, I learned I'm too much of a mood reader for planning! But I have a review blog, so there's certain ones I need to read for that, and then prep for Twitch streams (I prefer not to do cold readings - that way lies unpleasant surprises). 12mo
