Well, it‘s SNOWING, which seems like a mighty good excuse to tuck up in bed with my kittycorn lamp and a Courtney Milan novel. I got off to a slow start with THE EARL WHO ISN‘T thanks to a couple of busy days, but I‘m past the 50% mark and I hope I‘ve got enough momentum to finish it tomorrow. It‘s often very funny, despite some fraught circumstances on both leads‘ sides. I especially love how Andrew‘s little bro is extremely fifteen years old.
pickThis was a perfect gothic story for the October season. It weaves together elements of Jack the Ripper, Mary Reilly (movie), Jane Eyre, and Frankenstein. It was such a good story; I flew through the whole book in one day. I wished it was longer.

pickI loved seeing a more personal side of Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip. The author did a wonderful job of bringing warmth and humanity to these iconic figures. I enjoyed how a touching love story was woven throughout the novel.Christmas is my favorite time of year,& I loved reading about how the Royal Family celebrated it across different years.This book beautifully captures both royal tradition &the timeless spirit of Christmas.
One of those romance set a few hundred years ago. Unlikely unmatched people who come together. Feelings develop between them ☺️
