Review: The Rat-Catcher’s Daughter (Lilywhite Boys #0.5) by K.J. Charles

One of my favorite things about K.J. Charles’ writing is how she weaves together emotion, intrigue, and suspense. Another of my favorite things is how she inserts non-straight and nonbinary characters without unnecessary fanfare into historical fiction that too often lacks such representation as it it never existed before the twentieth century.

Carivel is a delight to read, and her relationship(s) with Andoc and Senovo are just the right mix of emotional andContinue reading “Review: The Horse Mistress: Book 1 (Eburosi Chronicles #1) by R.A.

Review: Unmasked by the Marquess (Regency Impostors #1) by Cat Sebastian

The most interesting and appealing thing about this book is that it did not follow what I’ve come to realize is the traditional romance plot structure. I thought I knew exactly how this book was going to go. I was completely wrong, and I loved it all the more for it.
