Typically convoluted P.G. WodehousePG Wodehouse 'Jeeves and Wooster' farce, in which the bumbling but good-natured Bertie Wooster finds himself affianced, against his will, to Florence Craye, which her former fiancee - 'Stilton' Cheesewright - does not take at all kindly to and whilst Bertie's 'good and deserving' Aunt Dahlia is trying to offload her weekly magazine, 'Milady's Boudoir', to a rich buyer who insists she also throws in her chef Anatole into the mix.

Throw in a clutch of pearls, Jeeves strongly disapproving of Bertie's newest fad (a moustache), layabout poets and various other romantic entanglements and misunderstandings and you have all the ingredients of another classic farce that is well worth a read!

On the second Sabbat of Twelfthmoon, in the city of Weep, a girl fell from the sky. Her skin was blue, her blood was red.
From the from the opening to the last page this story sucked me in and didn't let me go. Granted it was slow at times but the descriptions were so intoxicating. It could easily have been too poetic or too much but the author always seemed to toe the line just right. Recommended if you're in the mood for a dreamy romantic fantasy.

"'You're a storyteller. Dream up something wild and improbable,' she pleaded. 'Something beautiful and full of monsters.'
'Beautiful and full of monsters?'
'All the best stories are.'"

this book is the perfect summer read that you'll want to read all day in the sun. this book has it all, some emotional parts, some that will make you laugh out loud, lots of light hearted moments and the hot steamy scenes making the pages set alight. I loved the characters and how the interacted with each other, the banter between them was very well written. this is definitely a fantastic romantic read that you'll want to keep reading till the last page. this author has a fab way of writing so that you just eat up every page written. I cant wait to read more from this author in the future.
