Earls Trip by Jenny Holiday
5.0
This was an unexpectedly heart warming, deep, and fun regency novel. It follows Archie and his group of friends as they embark on their yearly “Earls” trip. One of the rules is of course what happens on Earls trip stays on Earls trip. While heading off on their journey you learn that Archie has dedicated himself to being the caretaker of his ailing mother who is suffering from dementia.. He seemingly has the biggest heart and has surrounded himself with like minded friends. You find that Archie struggles with dyslexia and has allowed societies view of him not being well read affect his self worth. It’s a heart warming journey of him learning his own value through the eyes of his chosen family.
Which the story of found family amongst Earls is all well enough, but its their side quest to save 2 sisters from ruin at the hands of some rogue that really make things interesting. After a successful rescue, the gentleman decide they have no choice but to bring the ladies along on this Earls trip. Clementine, as it turns out was once Archies dearest companion but they have drifted apart due to time and well Archie not being able to write her letters in return.
Force proximity anyone?
I wont give too much away but Archie and Clementine’s rekindling of their friendship amongst other things was perfect. He is such a sweet mmc and you find yourself rooting for him but also understanding his rumblings.
If you are a fan of Jane Austen, Bridgerton or really any regency era novels this will be right up your alley. I loved the modern chapter titles.
Thank you NetGalley and Kensington books for this arc.
