Loved Simon and Annabelle! For some reason I felt very attached to her and definitely saw my own responses in things should would say which just made it even better! Great start to the series and very much a lovely read! Could have done with more spice earlier on but of course the story needed to be set up so that’s fine!!

This book was so giggly and fun! I loved the premise of four wallflowers teaming up to find husbands. I really adored each girl equally and I’m so excited to read the next books in the series!!

Mencione en mi bookclub que los libros de Lisa Kleypas no tardaba mas de 2 dias en leerlos, me equivoque dure un dia porque no pude parar, me encantan los libros donde el protagonista esta obsesionado enamorado de la no tan indefensa heroina, pero bueno independientemente de la historia de romance y que volvio a salir Marcus, el conde de Westcliff que todos amamos, las estrellas del libro fueron las Wallflowers

Reread on April 2023 (still enjoy, but 3 stars of the wallflowers. Don’t like the paring as much as the others): this one is just ok. I get enough enjoyment out of it to give 4 stars, but it’s not super enthralling. I think Annabelle is meh. Kind of annoying that she wouldn’t consider Simon cos he’s wealthy working class, and her mom had the nerve to turn up her nose even after Annabelle married him. Like bitch, now you don’t have to fuck Hodgam. Get over yourself and hang out with the redneck, but heartwarming family. Ugh, and even tho Simon was all jokes about the bank account, still sucked he married her despite thinking that’s all she wanted. Just so he could get regular pussy.

And all the boring fluff in between drama and spice. I zoned out so much.

Only worth the read to set up for Devil in Winter.

Frankly, there was too much time spent setting up the wallflowers. Their stupid shenanigans together. I guess it was required to know all the women as the series goes on, but I enjoyed Devil so much cos it has barely any scenes with the other wallflowers.

It’s just alright, a fluffy audiobook when you need a comfort reread.

Ok the ending really brings it all together. I like Annabelle by the time she and Simon realize how much they love each other. I totally forgot she goes into the foundry to try to save him

I'm sorry, but I had a meh-who-cares reaction. Review to come.

I do genuinely like these characters separately and together, even though the reasons they are apart at the beginning are totally flimsy. why doesn't she like him at all?? there's just no reason lol

This book was just like any other Lisa Kleypas books, like to a tee. BUT i still love it nonetheless. I liked this book considerably more than her others, not because of any roguishly handsome man, but because of the addition of the lovely friendship between the wallflowers. They were so fun together. This book succesfully hyped me up to read the other books in the serie. The girls are just so lovely and funny

What a great book and I really enjoyed it too. Glad to see that she continued the other wallflower stories after this!
