All right, this isn't technically historical fiction, but the costumes are just so beautifully done that I refuse to believe that Adumi didn't research the transition in style during the 1790s.

Boring and smutty

I think I got confused more than once by this one. First off, I thought this was a light novel and was surprised to find out it was among a. What surprised me the most was that the first page was porn. The story itself is very shallow and the characters are mostly an interesting. The relationship between the two main characters is rather forceful and toes the line of consent. The reveal was predictable and unrealistic.... Overall it wasn't that great, but I've definitely read worse.

Minus the part where he kisses her when she’s a literal child, this was fun
