I really liked this book the romance was very cute and it was an easy read I do wish that it didn’t only take place within 24 hours though.

SA Crosby knows how to tell a simmering pot story. This is an excellent one of those.

This was a romance novel involving 2 friends, one trying to spice up her marriage and the other trying to cath the attention of the man she loves. Done with the help of a banned book published by a former high class prostitute. Its fun and steamy

I enjoyed it, but I almost felt like Sweetie was too perfect--Ashish was a good, kind person, but he also had some flaws which made him feel more real/natural, whereas Sweetie was presented as an almost perfect person which took me out of the experience. Plus, there were moments where Ashish's romantic feelings felt a bit too intense (as in, the way that Menon described it felt a bit sacchrine). Lastly, I wish Ashish's basketball issue (his lack of balltopia) had more time on the page since the only time it ends up really being mentioned is when they play HORSE and it turns into making out and then at the end when he finds balltopia again (although it's not clear if it was just a coincidence or what)

I liked the quizzes and games at the end.

It was little fun

This book is about cats being pets through history. The ancient Egyptians especially liked cats. The cover had a cute kitten

Overall, this was an enjoyable novel and par for the course for a Bridgerton romance. However, I wished there was more interactions between the twins and Eloise and/or Phillip.

Cool! They dropped the flag so early.

It wasn't my cup of tea, but I'm not sure if I can quantify why--perhaps it's because I felt the romance was a bit all over the place; as a reader I was rooting for Tian Bai, partially because it felt like that was who Li lan wanted to be with for a majority of the novel. Intellectually, I recognized/knew that Er Lang made more sense for Li lan, but I had not yet fully switched to rooting for Er Lang before the novel ended. The writing also at times felt a bit distanced (emotionally) but that was a smaller concern for me.
