Switching back and fourth between the audio and the ebook and look, i don't want to be an asshole but the voice acting is too over the top for my tastes. I know it's a hard job (and the narrator is doing great with the narrating bits!) but actually sometimes don't try to do a male voice. Or a male superhero voice. Because it sounds like a caricature.

Monsterfucking this monsterfucking that but what's really jarring is being attracted to your boss. Insert Community "I can excuse ..." meme here

Rereading this as an early getting ready for the sequel and it's alarming how much my thoughts are in the general direction of "oh she likes her job, I wonder what that feels like".
Speculative fiction in the sense of Actually Being Fulfilled in Your Job.

I'm gonna need a Canadian to explain to me wth a licorice pipe is.

Tonally this is all over the place but I'm enjoying it

Why do these adult human people keep getting food in their hair while eating. How is this a common occurence.

I'm really curious to know if there's a kind of very specific Canadian sense of humor or if it's the author's style

I still think the US are making up this entire sport as an elaborate prank and we keep falling for it

Lessgoooo
I can't believe romance writers making us read about SPORTS. Feels mean tbh.

Does she put crack in these. Seriously

I think I'm just gonna end the year by rereading all my favourite cat Sebastian books.

If I had a nickel for every time I started a horror book featuring a woman becoming a crime scene cleaner after the traumatic death of a loved one this year I'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

Ah yes the Gay Civil War

5 earldoms is too many earldoms.

Truly the actions of people who've never seen CSI.

I think if it were up to me i'd have let that little shit drown in mud and maybe if i were feeling merciful that day finish him off with the world's dullest axe, consequences be damned.

I can't believe my lunch break is done (being Employed is the only way I managed not to inhale this...)

I don't usually brace myself while reading a Cat Sebastian book but this one has a bracemyself quality. Everything is going to be fine but alsooo...I feel like this part is gonna be a bit tense.

Philippe II and Richard Lionheart NEVER beating those allegations

I've been waiting for this for MONTHS I refuse to inhale it in one day.

Cat Sebastian *weaponizes* domesticity and that's why she's one of the best to ever write in this genre

Happy Cat Sebastian new book day to all celebrating. It should be a bank holiday.
Now did I spontaneously wake up at midnight to approuve the preorder and load the book on my kindle? Maybe.

Family dinners must have been teeeense

"women be cray and jealous" and the woman in question is seething because her husband just gave away her hereditary claim to Toulouse. "she's probably just emotional"
