Not my thing

Does this author only write Duke books? Every book on her backlist is about a Duke. I guess she has a niche, too bad I get so tired of Duke books.

This book is just too slow. It has its moments but it’s filled with cliches and maudlin sentimentality. The servants thanking her for bringing joy back into the manor? 🤮 She waters flowers she finds in the cracks of paving stones by scooping water out of puddles with her bare hands? 🤮 I feel like even Disney would say this author went too far with the special snowflake heroine.

I’m having trouble figuring out if this hero is shy or evil. It’s a real mindfuck, lemme tell you. I’m hoping evil.
