Regency Mean Girls? REGENCY MEAN GIRLS!
This book is fun, well-written, and DEEPLY charming. If you're looking for something with low stakes, this is the book for you. I was able to read this all in one sitting because the prose is good, the characters and their dynamics are great, and the plot is just so fun. Cannot recommend it enough.
Bridgerton, Mean Girls, Pride and Prejudice... You can find all this and so much more in this book!
I think this book managed to get me out of my reading slump that I had been in recently. I loved it. Georgiana is suddenly thrust into the world of the social elite and while throughout the story she is clearly torn as to whether she can actually fit in with them, her transformation throughout this book is truly beautiful! The book is fast paced, filled with scandal and drama, I loved the characters, and Lex Croucher's writing style is such a treat! I felt like I was actually a part of the story. I really enjoy Regency Romance novels and this one will no doubt be a top recommendation for my bookish friends who love the same. Such a great read.
A REGENCY MEAN GIRLS BOOK? HELL, YEAH. I loved reading about Georgiana Ellers and how she deals with the in-crowd.
I absolutely devoured this book!
Imagine Mean Girls meets Bridgerton… need I say more?
Georgiana is sent to live with her aunt & uncle on the outskirts of a summer town for London’s elite. Being used to a simple, intellectual life, Georgiana is surprised to be pulled into the high class socialite world when she is befriended be Frances Campbell. Frances and her friends are the exact opposite of proper. It’s not long before Georgiana begins to fall for Thomas Hawksley, who seems to stand out from the rest of the crowd. During her wild summer, Georgiana wonders if she can truly fit in and continue to masquerade in high society.
This romantic, historical comedy is everything. There is high paced drama throughout that makes it extremely hard to put down. The cast of characters are unique and there are equally as many likable characters as there are unlikeable ones. You get to see Georgiana develop from a meek character to an outspoken, independent one. There is scandal after scandal infused with humor. As you’re reading, you feel fully engulfed in English high society.
I can only hope to see more from this author! What an amazingly witty and un-put-downable novel!
Like Brigerton and Pride in Prejudice…I really enjoyed this updated period story. The characters were dynamic and the story captivating.
