Mrs Poppet was born and raised in the California valley, though her delight in English tea, literature, and rainfall lead some to believe otherwise. Immensely grateful for modern comforts and communication, her heart is still captured by the romance of bygone eras, and will rarely scribble anything that isn't primarily a love story.

Her writing proclivities tend toward fairy tale retellings and Jane Austen fan-works, each genre seemingly writing themselves when the inspiration strikes. Mrs Poppet is not affiliated with any Jane Austen fan groups but attempts to do her utmost in preserving the historical and cultural integrity of the characters she takes liberties with.

She currently resides in the beauty of the Pacific Northwest, facing the

So many beautiful moments in this one. I definitely cried more than in previous volumes... but not from any frustration, or angst, or anything other than shared poignant memories and hope of a good future.
Beth and 19 other people liked kris's review of Remember Me (Ravenswood, #2):
Remember Me by Mary Balogh
"Several years ago, Lady Philippa Ware overhears the Marquess of Roath, Lucas Arden, say a mean thing about her one whole time. So she spends several years hiding out at home until the absolutely ancient age of 21 when she decides to go to London. Upo" Read more of this review »

I couldn't even get past the first few pages after seeing a "Stephanie" on the family tree, (born 1799) a "Jenny/Jennifer" of the nobility, and Lucas immediately being shortened to "Luc." I can't. ...more

My rating is for an audiobook version read by January LaVoy who did a phenomenal job. I think the translation was far less "grim" than the original, but I didn't mind as the reading was dramatic enough to make up for it, and the English was lovely. ...more

I'm giving it 5 stars even though it's unfinished because the last few paragraphs were enough to make me believe this would have been up there with Pride & Prejudice and Persuasion, had it been completed. I very much enjoyed the way Emma Watson was f ...more

“Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.”
Joseph Addison

“People have forgotten this truth," the fox said. "But you mustn’t forget it. You become responsible forever for what you’ve tamed. You’re responsible for your rose.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“Wait on the Lord" is a constant refrain in the Psalms, and it is a necessary word, for God often keeps us waiting. He is not in such a hurry as we are, and it is not his way to give more light on the future than we need for action in the present, or to guide us more than one step at a time. When in doubt, do nothing, but continue to wait on God. When action is needed, light will come.”
J.I. Packer, Knowing God

“And if my choice is to sit graciously in my best robes and accept the inevitable or to bail a sea with a bucket, give me the bucket.”
Robin McKinley, Chalice

Never,' he tells me in a tone full of ice, 'underestimate who or what I care for.”
Melina Marchetta, On the Jellicoe Road
