This traveling matchmaker series is light and fluffy and perfect when you‘re not in the mood to think too much. 3.5⭐️

I picked this up on a whim (and then actually bought it again!), and I wish I had read it immediately. It's a wonderful packet of three stories, with the same main characters and some wonderful sass and adventure, set in a time where neither sass or adventure were things ladies were wanted to have. Awaiting book 2 with bated breath! #20-205

I've been struggling for ages to find a cover match for Where the Drowned Girls Go, and I reckon this works! Colour, ocean theming, portal in the middle, etc. @TheAromaOfBooks #Bookchain2025

This entire Teacup Magic series is so enjoyable! It is set in a Regency-ish but more LBGTQIA+ friendly set of islands. >>

Lauredhel >> Each book has a bit of a different 'hook' - this one was Alice in Wonderland flavoured, another was more of a mystery, another a ghost story, another straight romance, etc. Kind of like LM Bujold's books. Recommended. 2w
TheAromaofBooks Wow, fantastic match!!!! 2w

I think I would have enjoyed this fun regency book more if I had read it with my eyeballs. I was not a fan of the narrator who was a tad monotone, but there‘s a good story in there. 3.5⭐️

#PemberLittens 20th Anniversary showing of Pride and Prejudice definitely called for dressing up. Niece in law Jen and I had the best time. We sighed, we laughed, we clapped.

Crinoline_Laphroaig @Kristin_Reads @dabbe @CrowCAH @TheBookHippie you should have seen me. I had to pee during the movie. I hiked up my skirt and went running down the hallway of theater because I didn't want to miss Pemberley. 😂 3w

Someone listed this as a Pride & Prejudice retelling, which was enough for me. However, I‘d say this was more of typical enemies to lovers. It felt a little too instalove and the plot on the back cover was only maybe 1/4 of the book. I didn‘t love how infertility was handled. But overall it was a fun read when I was feeling a little too stressed with grad school. It took me an embarrassing amount of time to realize what a quizzing glass was.

This has been my handbag book over the last few weeks. It is a lot of fun, particularly the antics of Frederica's younger brothers, & I enjoyed the romance too. I can see why it's a lot of people's favourite Heyer, but it hasn't replaced The Grand Sophy in my affections.

LeahBergen I still like The Grand Sophy a bit better, too. 😄 1mo

Another belated review—I read this in January for #AuldLangSpine!

This was so much fun. Set in Regency-era England, it follows “Gus” and Julia, spinster twin sisters who set out to rescue a friend‘s goddaughter and join forces with a charming rogue along the way. It‘s full of humor, adventure, and female empowerment, as well as more serious issues and higher stakes than I imagined there‘d be. I was so glad to see there‘ll be a book 2!

Librarybelle I‘m so excited for book two! 2mo
quietjenn Oh, I just checked this out from the library yesterday! 2mo
BarbaraJean @quietjenn Yay! Hope you enjoy! 2mo
