Ugh. This is why I don’t like Victorian era inspired books. Falling in love in a week, the super formal impersonal way of speaking (I know that prim and proper has meaning and fits with the time, but I can never read it any other way than posh people jabbing at each other) and b/c a man has acted gentlemanly and kind enough the FMC will accept his marriage proposal even though as a reader he is sooooo shady

They really are just running with the Ambrose is her half brother thing even though there is no concrete proof other than that ‘very soon’. It’s all conjecture

This proposed solution just feels lackluster and disappointing

Is Ambrose her brother or not?! ‘if I was not mistaken, papa was revealing I had come dangerously close to marry my own brother.’

‘say yes. Then we need no longer grapple over the Ginnel books.’ Told you so! Motivations are so transparent as the reader that it’s frustrating when the characters go along with whatever

‘The damned books! Surely not.’ Did he not mention that if they get married they wouldn’t have to fight over the books. Come on lady that’s all that he wants, he doesn’t want you and he’s 20 years your senior. I hate how dense women in this genre of books are sometimes when it comes to nefarious motivations

I was expecting a winter read, not a Christmas one. Also because of the time it’s set it’s very formal. I beg your pardon, certainly not etc which i don’t personally enjoy reading even though i can see how it’s conveying a depth when Antony goes beyond what is polite and he’s sincere
