indolentfop 's review for:

Enchanting Pleasures by Eloisa James
2.5
adventurous emotional funny medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Heroine was all over the place, from naive fibbing impetuous goose who ignores lack of consent to literal crafty kingmaker. Cringey orientalism here and there. Boch and Emily should’ve had their own book or novella, both characters were interesting enough for it and their storyline so poorly integrated into the main one that it could’ve easily been removed and been its own thing.
