- Plot- or character-driven? A mix

Perfect reading for These Challenging Times. And Kate’s adventures in trying to write letters with 7 kids underfoot (in book 3) are extremely relatable.

Fun read for fans of fantasy and Regency era fiction
I picked up this collection of three novels because one of the authors went to Bryn Mawr. The books follow two cousins on their adventures in Regency England - transformed by the conceit that magic is real and many English people are trained magicians and wizards. The heroines are strong and independent minded, but still live well within the confines of a woman's life in England. The adventures are fun and told with a sense of humor.

Light and fluffy epistolary novels. While enjoyable, I would prefer more substance, as well as some spunk.
