Bargaining for the Barrister by Anneka R. Walker
2.0
*Bargaining for the Barrister* is a historical fiction book. The matchmaking mamas was a little bit hilarious. Louisa is a very independent woman. She tries her best to be optimistic, and I’m glad she sees the value of not trying to be happy all the time because there is also such a thing as toxic positivity. *Paul had to overcome some fundamental issues that stemmed from abuse. He had some issues, but it was interesting he was aware of his problems.* I wanted to know more about some characters. However, I’m glad the author made an effort to raise some specific issues about the era.
Favorite Quote by Paul: *“I think they’d be proud of your strength and such a worthy desire. But when life mistreats you, I daresay they would want you to have a good cry now and then too.”*
Recommend this to anyone interested in pure maritime historical fiction. Thank you to the publisher for allowing me to read an arc in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
**My rating: 2.5/5**
