A pretty disappointing crossover – not sorry I waited so long to read it

December 23, 2017 by Malin Leave a Comment

Tommy Taylor has been separated from his friends and is desperately trying to find a way back to them. He also needs to stop the ancient adversary, Pullman, from killing the legendary Leviathan once and for all, but is waylaid on his journey when the various witches and magical personages of Fabletown attempt to summon the greatest mage the worlds have ever seen, in order to stop the menace threatening their own realms. Tommy is pretty sure he’s not the person they’re looking for, but […]

The Duke and the Runaway Bride

December 23, 2017 by Malin Leave a Comment

Hugh Ancaster, seventh Duke of Ripley, is well-known in society (or possibly rather infamous) as one of the three dis-graces. He has returned from an extended trip to the continent just in time for his fellow dis-graces stag do. His best friend, the angel-faced Duke of Ashmont, has managed to find a bride and one from a respectable and upstanding family at that. Lady Olympia Hightower, only daughter of the Earl of Gonerby, is the lucky lady. Although she seems to be having second thoughts, […]

This book features a spy hero, but don’t go expecting some kind of exciting Regency James Bond adventure

December 23, 2017 by Malin Leave a Comment

3.5 stars Lady Mariah Dunmore is the daughter of a highly regarded diplomat, and has lived most of her life abroad with her very understanding mother and father. They would like her to find a nice man to marry, but seem perfectly fine with her taking her time and as they have such a good marriage themselves, no problem with her wanting to marry for love. Sadly, Mariah finds all the gentlemen of the London season rather tedious and uninspiring, until she meets a mysterious […]

Four romances for the price of one

December 23, 2017 by Malin Leave a Comment

Ian MacGregor isn’t even officially the Earl of Balfour yet, that title technically belongs to his older brother, who went off to the Colonies and is presumed dead. It’s been nearly seven years and everyone certainly believes Ian to be the head of the MacGregor clan. While they’re not penniless, they don’t have a whole lot of money to keep the estates going, so Ian is looking for a rich bride to support himself, his two younger brothers, his widowed sister and his niece, not […]

The feels, I have them

December 22, 2017 by llp Leave a Comment

This is a lovely little book written by Jomny Sun, an alien with a Twitter account and a charming take on life on Earth. In real life, Jomny is Jonathan Sun, one of those geniuses who is a writer, illustrator, architect, engineer etc. In addition to his sweet Twitter account, he helps create an online newsletter called Bouncy Castle that brings sunshine directly to your inbox, along with Twitter magician Darth. I might be a fan. The book itself is a longer version of Jomny’s […]
