Welcome to Litsy!

Most people have posted most of the books I would have posted for #six, but do own some copies of the Six Sisters Series by M C Beaton which are Regency Romances. Usually enjoy M C Beaton books. #NovemberByTheNumbers

Cute little regency romance.

It might be sunny outside but we, my son and I, are staying indoors reading. My son was hit by a bludger (football/soccer ball) in PE today and came home early, he is relaxing with a Donald Duck comic and eating all the "Digestives"; I'm resting a slightly sprained ankle.

Why there's a pair of chopsticks in the background, you might ask? They are actually duelling wands in disguise. ;)

Chesney clearly loves the regency period: she goes to great lengths to specify every piece of clothing her characters are wearing, detail every bit of furniture and art in the walls. While I admire her commitment to verisimilitude this level of description drags down the plot. Still the real problem here is an unlikeable main character that lacks the mitigating factor of being interesting.

If you want an Austen knockoff go with Georgette Heyer.
