Unwilling marriage, you say? 😏 It’s cool. I’ll just camp out here in my lawn chair with my grubby hands extended until September 2021 then. Unwilling marriage, you say? 😏 It’s cool. I’ll just camp out here in my lawn chair with my grubby hands extended until September 2021 then.

Okey - are you thinking what I'm thinking? The 4th book is going to be about Montgomery's brother and Cartiona for sure! And, as Dunmore is going through different "love types" (forbidden love, haters-to-lovers) maybe we should expect some love triangles now? let me know what you think!!

I was a woman possessed. I spent about 80% of my time talking about Evie Dunmore, and the other 20% of the time, I was praying for someone else to bring her up so I could talk about her more. I could hear people getting bored with me, but I couldn't stop. I was a woman possessed.

Ugh. So good. A Beauty & the Beast-esque love story that engages directly with all the complexities of that kind of power dynamic. I also always finish Dunmore's books having genuinely LEARNED something, without it ever feeling like the historical elements are bogging down the narrative or romance. Her books HAVE to take place within their context, rather than the era feeling incidental, and it's clear how much research goes into these books.

Each book is even better than the last, which is incredible as they're all immersivity well thought out, and poignantly effective in their own right! This series duly elevates feminist quality, while staying true to the deeply researched historical era. With characters that jump off the page, layers plot developments that encourages you to think beyond the premise, and an insatiable tension that is delightfully consistent from the first chapter- it's simply a worthwhile experience to enjoy her s Each book is even better than the last, which is incredible as they're all immersivity well thought out, and poignantly effective in their own right!

I have loved this series from book one and I think this is the best so far. Humour, romance, sex, first-wave feminism through a socio-economic lens? What's not to love?
