graveyardgremlin (7194 KP) rated Tabitha's Tangle (Herberts, #4) in Books
Feb 15, 2019
There is something so delightful and relaxing about a Regency romance. Maybe it's the manners, so very proper, at least on the outside, that soothes my temperament. Whatever it is, I needed a familiar read, so I reached for a Regency to fit the bill.
TABITHA'S TANGLE afforded me the luxury of sinking back in time of grace and romantic entanglements. While the little bit of mystery is obvious, the courtship between Tabitha and Hugh is sweet enough to make up for it. The two leads are absolutely charming and I enjoyed every moment of their struggle do what is right and still get what they want. While at times I thought the pacing slow, mainly it was due to my impatience rearing its head. A lovely way to pass a few hours with.

Fabulous Magical Regency Romp
Sorcerer to the Crown is a Regency era fantasy novel packed with romance, mystery, and adventure. Fans of historial fiction and gaslamp fantasy like Jonathan Strange & Mister Norell, the Chrestomanci series, or A Great and Terrible Beauty will enjoy this romantic romp through an alternative London where magic is a gentleman's sport and issues of race, class, and gender are as worrying as the general decline of magic in England.
Zacharias Wythe charms as the stoic Sorcerer Royal and Prunella Gentleman, the snarky orphan with a troubling amount of magical talent, is easily his match. The relationship between the two has a Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet quality that still manages to feel fresh and unique.
Cho has crafted a wonderful fantasy world replete with interesting characters and intriguing mysteries, it's easy to see why this book gained a nomination for 2016's Locus Award for Best First Novel.
