...and I'm Just. So. Happy.
The first book to make it onto my best books I've read so far this year list was actually a surprise. Thanks to Bridgerton's massive success, Julia Quinn's name is everywhere these days. And I'm chuffed about the whole thing. That said, my Quinn reading up to this point has been sporadic at best. And I'd only read two novels in the actual Bridgerton series. So I decided to rectify that at the beginning of the year by starting with Eloise's story (the fifth in the series) because she is my uncontested favorite of the siblings. I had no idea what her story held, but I knew she would be a compelling lead. I also love the title and the role that letters play in the story. Eloise Bridgerton is tired of everything. She is tired of the endless inane whirl of life among the ton. She is tired of being paraded around and forced to dance and converse with all the wrong men. But most of all she is tired of being suddenly and unexpectedly alone after her best friend Penelo
I'm so, so sorry but I just have to say--
ReplyDeleteWHAATTTTT?!??! How--what-- how is it even possible that you got the newest Marillier before it's supposed release date! Her website says first week of November! I'm stunned! Green-eyed with envy! Jealousy coursing through my veins!
You should be happy!
Lol. I was stalking the online bookstores and saw it pop up early on Barnes & Noble's. So far I'm about 50 pages in and it is so good...
ReplyDeleteoh nice! I love getting those kind of parcels.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice little parcel! Cybele's Secret made it on to the Cybils list at the lastest minute, so I am looking forward to reading that...
ReplyDeleteA Halloween treat. Parcels like this one make the world go round.
ReplyDeleteCharlotte, I'm glad Cybele's Secret made it in. Happy reading!
OMG. The new Sharon Shinn. I am so jealous. And I still need to get around to reading Marillier.
ReplyDeleteGrin. I started with the Marillier and am really looking forward to the Shinn.
