The Duke and I, by Julia Quinn
Despite my earlier post on romance, I keep TRYING to like the books recommended by Smart Bitches, Trashy Books. However, not even for free could I persist past the second chapter or so of this Regency. Quinn's prose is flat and her ear for dialog tin.
Boring hundreds of perfect strangers with my musings on books, movies, and television since 2007.
About Me
- Muse of Ire
- O for a Muse of fire, that would ascend/The brightest heaven of invention,/A kingdom for a stage, princes to act/And monarchs to behold the swelling scene! Henvy V, Prologue, 1-4 Only mine is a muse of ire, because I'm cranky.
