review 1: I read the first book, The Burning Sky just last month. I gave that book a 3.5 star rating. I liked book two just a little less and for a lot of the same reasons I gave for book one. I found parts of Iolanthe and Titus adventure in the desert confusing. One thing that still bugs ...

review 1: I loved the characters! I like that they had brains. They were written so well that even if Felix was an asshole, I sympathized with him. In fact, his manipulative nature is actually charming. I liked Louisa for her brains. She was able to discern Felix's true nature and was wary...

review 1: While I enjoyed the basic story, I found there was too much political talk. It served no purpose in this story that I could see. I found myself skipping the political stuff to get back to the real story. It took me out of the story every time it came up. I did enjoy the love stor...

review 1: I love Sherry Thomas. I recognise that some of her books are better than others but in the world of historical romance there aren't many authors writing better stuff. Not Quite A husband is probably my favourite. I adore Bryony and Leo and the effect they have on one another. The...

review 1: This book had a really strong start and ended kind of strangely so I feel somewhat indifferent to the characters and the plot itself. I guess this is a spoiler because it's in the summary of the book, but the two main characters are forced into a marriage of convenience and that...

review 1: Short-form romance is difficult to pull off. There isn't enough time for either the characters' relationship to develop, or for the reader to come to care about them. This story was nice, but nice like hearing good news about someone you don't really know. You know, like when you...

review 1: I'm a big Sherry Thomas fan but I found this one lacking. It contains one of my least favorite setups - the loss of memory. Add to that - the heroine angrily accuses the hero of something she initiated and insisted upon. I felt like throwing my hands in the air. Although it is re...

review 1: It was an interesting read. I liked many elements of the book. Instead of focusing on courtship or an arranged marriage, this historical romance is about a marriage that has fallen apart. The author very slowly reveals the true reason for the separation, which I did not guess ...

review 1: This was the first Sherry Thomas novel I had read and, after reading lots of Regency romances, I was starting to get a bit jaded by the standard plots of incorrigible rake meets fascinating innocent. This was refreshingly different. I was almost disappointed when Lord Vere finall...

review 1: I like this author’s writing style. Perfect, for the Victorian setting. See how there are both male and female Spies in the service of the crown before the turn of the 20th century? I like that too.In her books, that I’ve read, neither does Ms. Thomas seem to have an inclination ...
