A review by summerslittlelibrary
A Lady's Formula for Love by Elizabeth Everett

lighthearted mysterious slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

0.5

This book is the definition of #girlboss #slayqueen and I mean that in a negative way. It’s SO on the nose that it’s just exhausting. Also… she’s super “feminist” but anti labor rights? Also why are all of the non cis white characters servants?? rubbed me the wrong way, even if “historically accurate.” Had to force myself to finish it. 0.5 stars just because I liked the male love interest
