Welcome to Litsy!

During early Puritan America until the end of the 18th century, “ bundling”, a custom in which couples were “ bundled” separately in cloths & permitted to spend nights together in bed, parental approval was common. It was thought that this practice would create lasting relationships & ultimately marriage.
I am having so@much fun learning about the sexual mores & practices in 17th, 18th & 19th centuries. #NFNovember #TodayILearned #NFN

Ooooo this was so good, just what I needed. Light and easy to read on the surface, but with hidden depths. It‘s funny, snarky (kind of how I wanted the writing in Long Island Compromise to be, but it wasn‘t). I loved the person by person narrative that moved gradually through the timeline of the story; that of disgraced political intern Aviva Grossman. This is one that leaves you with a cosy satisfied smile.

I love rich people drama, and Jennifer Lynn Barnes writing. Diving straight into book 2. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

July stack. Also read two ebooks, wallflower and the wicked and brazen and the beast by Sarah Maclean.

An unexpected treat of a novel. Told by five women, the plot unravels in an unhurried fashion but we're kept contemplating the choices made, the misogyny of business and how we judge people.
Very readable.

Good things take time but
Destruction happens quickly
Cruelty is the point

Delightful historical romance! Just dummies in love. I love it.
