Reviews with content warning for Rape - Reputation

En otroligt kul och härlig läsupplevelse! Hade mycket roligt medan jag läste, svårt att släppa boken! Det perfekta kostymdramat i bokform, som en mix mellan Stolthet och fördom och Mean Girls fast som vågar ta upp tunga ämnen som övergrepp och rasism. Älskade karaktärerna, min favvo var Cecily <3

Really struggled to get into this one, with the author (seemingly) struggling to find the balance between regency era and modernity. HOWEVER, it got significantly better as it went along.

I don’t know why they decided to market this as adult fiction, it very much gave YA.

I adored the character Betty and was totally in love with Thomas. I also was very fond of the MANY taylor swift references through out…

Very much Mean Girls meets Bridgerton!

While the back of the book compares this story to Jane Austen, Fleabag, and Bridgerton, it was really just essentially Mean Girls with a Skins twist. That’s not a bad thing, but it is worth noting that most of the characters are pretty awful and don’t really redeem themselves.

I did enjoy the main romance and the writing style is SPECTACULAR. I just found myself wishing the characters weren’t so morally gray and that at least some of the characters got some comeuppance. All in all, it’s a good choice for anybody who wants a historical take on Mean Girls with a deeper and more emotional twist. Be aware of the content warnings though!
