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.

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.

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!
Combines a lot of regency tropes with some interesting American focused issues and ideas and builds on the magical world Lackey originally set around WW1 England.
Amelia and her cousin come to England to help expand the family business and learn about Regency England customs while meeting eligible magicians.
4.5/5 read for a regency magical romance that‘s more focused on social issues than romance. Lackey packs a lots into this book, expertly.
I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

Thank you, Leah, for this delightful package. I am particularly pleased with Bath Tangle because I have a couple of other Heyer‘s in this format. And, yes, the Kloester is an essential resource for a Heyer fan 😊. I love the teacup card too. It is so kind of you to think of me 😘. And I did follow your instruction 😆
