. . . and to all, a good night.
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
yay Jennifer Crusie! Bet Me is definitely my favorite, but I love Fast Women too.

ReplyDeleteBooks under the tree--such a comforting sight. Have fun with all those reads. Glad to see a couple of Kristan Higgins books there. :)
Very nice. Is that a different edition of Bet Me? And I keep meaning to try reading Kristen Higgins, but when I'm in the bookstore I BLANK on her name. Really should write it down.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a Merry Christmas!
