Sir Philip's Folly
Sir Philip's Folly | M.C. Beaton
3 posts | 6 read | 1 to read
Commotion reigns at the Poor Relation hotel when two unwelcome ladies create chaos among the established order of things! Sir Philip Sommerville is quite the antique, but not too old to bring home a paramour: fat, vulgar and greedy Mrs Budge who, the other poor relations are agreed upon, has to go. And then there is Lady Carruthers, a highly rouged widow who passes off her grown daughter, Arabella, as a school miss while setting her own cap for the young Earl of Denby, despite the fact that young Arabella is quite smitten with the dashing golden-haired earl! So once again it is up to the other poor relations to straighten out the course of true love...

I did it! I finished all but Hercule for #20in4!! I‘m reading that aloud with my daughter so that‘s why it‘s taking a little to get through. We‘re at 69% though so hopefully we will be done soon. Anyway, I am very proud of myself for finishing the others.

I liked the relationship in this one best of the series. Arabella & Denby got to know each other, became friends & enjoyed each other's company. And honestly, her mother was such a great antagonist (in that you didn't mind disliking her), I would've supported anyone Arabella fell for to get out of her clutches. This couple had the best interaction & most support within the poor relations themselves, which made a great balance btwn the plot lines.

I've been away for a bit thanks to being sick, so I'm playing catch up here for #marchintoreading . Clockwise from top left: #greatbandname , #canadianauthors , #crazycovers (it's a business book but looks like a dairy carton, which makes it crazy to me!), and #bookbag (Babar the Elephant doing yoga).
