Absolutely brilliant. Received this book early from my preorder and read it in two days. All of the characters are complex and dynamic, no more than Georgiana, who I quickly came to love despite her flaws. It's the kind of book that I couldn't help but react aloud to. At one point I involuntarily gave quite an evil chuckle which very much startled my partner! So funny but also entirely heart wrenching. The dreamy yet grounded romance which definitely felt like a modern response to Jane Austen. The writing itself is sharp and funny and altogether a delight to read. I was very sad to finish this one and as I have no idea what a sequel might be, I will simply have to wait with bated breath for another book from Lex Croucher.
