Visiting Sydney. It‘s a perfect day for a harbour cruise so I took a trip on the Manly ferry and treated myself to an ice cream on the Corso. Bliss!

Loved this princess and the pea retelling 😍
* I received an eARC of this book. This is my honest opinion and I leave a review voluntarily *

What a jaunty little read that was. My first Georgette Heyer. Love discovering #newtomeauthors. An enjoyable #palatecleanser ❤️
My Heyer loving friend brought this one and The Nonesuch to our last book group meeting for me to borrow. This is an early one, and I think it shows, but I had a thoroughly good time with it any way. I found French polished Philip very amusing indeed.
Yesterday was release day for Tested! I loved this Princess and the Pea retelling, it has such lovely characters and I actually learned a lot about myself through this book - I am way more shallow than I‘d like to admit. 🙈
This heroine though is not, Aine is a wonderful character and so is Rian. Absolutely recommend this book and can‘t wait for the next book in the series!

This was not my favorite Heyer. It was a bit too silly at times. And I have learned that I want to like the female protagonist in a Heyer novel - I want to root for her and see her happy - and I just wasn‘t a fan of Cleone.

This was not my favorite Heyer- but a lot of that is because I do not speak French and was too tired to use google translate. The story was a Grease in reverse- and I liked the overall end result. Everyone wants Phillip to change- but when he does they realize the original was better.
Again - not the correct book!
Loved this beauty and the beast retelling, absolutely recommend it!

@Chrissyreadit @TheAromaofBooks @mabell I‘m not very far into this month‘s #HappyFiction book yet, but I‘ve lost track of our discussion. Are we doing it on StoryGraph, or did we decide to do something else? 🤪
