Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Mark of the Princess (The Kingdom Chronicles, #1) in Books
Jul 12, 2018
First off, I have to say that this book was a lot of fun but I definitely found the formatting distracting. The version that I read had a few typos and formatting issues that took away from the story.
With that said, I really liked the plot. This book is definitely for a more juvenile audience but the plot was enchanting. I really enjoyed the idea of the novel and how young the romance is (kissing, nothing steamy). I've been reading quite a lot of steamy books so this was refreshing.
I liked the drama and the little bit of angst that the characters had. The characters were interesting and I did keep rooting for them when they had their trials.
Ultimately, I cannot wait to start on the next book. This book was a great start to a series and I cannot wait to see how the plot thickens.
Deborah (162 KP) rated Lady Drusilla's Road to Ruin (Ladies in Disgrace, #2) in Books
Dec 21, 2018
The Lady Driscilla of the title is the responsible older sister who is on her way to Scotland to save her flighty younger sister from a great deal om imprudence and probably a great big scandal! When Druscilla is harassed by an oily, unpleasant merchant on her journey, our hero's gentlemanly side takes over and he ends up assisting Druscilla - in more ways than one!
This was a fun romance with believable characters and understandable objections and misunderstandings to be overcome. Even getting near the end of the book I couldn't quite see how everything could be resolved satisfactorily - but of course it is! In fact I would have liked to have 'seen' a little more of our hero and heroine's adventure!
