Bingo square: Pandemic Series: Greenglass House. This is Book #2, I read and reviewed Book #1 last October. What I remembered about this series prior to reading this book: Smugglers, Christmas, thieves, tabletop roleplaying games, and adoption issues handled with sensitivity. I enjoyed Greenglass House quite a bit. Why I stopped reading the series: I wasn’t sure if I needed to know more about the characters–I felt good with where they were after Book 1. I might have picked up Book 2 even if I weren’t trying […]

A revenge plot that thankfully goes completely wrong

Felicity Faircloth may be the daughter of an Earl, but she is now on the fringes of society and her family desperately need her to land a rich husband, sooner rather than later, please. She’s not at all happy to discover just how dire the family’s finances are (and that they’ve kept the truth from her for over a year), but she may have just doomed them all, but telling a very inconvenient lie at a ball held by the reclusive Duke of Marwick.

Zirza on A Gothic Classic for a ReasonIt's one of those wish-you-could-read-it-again-for-the-first-time books. I loved it.
Emmalita on “It came to something when you found yourself hoping that the footsteps you heard were ghosts.”I loved the ending! I don’t think it’s been out long enough to talk about why though.

Emmalita on “Only you, Em, would refer to heartbreak as a distraction. I think I would have a more sympathetic response if I asked to marry a bookcase.”Oh my goodness, Gallifrey was beautiful. I’m sure her mittens were gloriously murdery.
