Written In The Stars
by Alexandria Bellefleur
Solid 2.5 stars.
I'm always excited to read a sapphic romance, but this one just missed the mark for me. The nods to Pride and Prejudice did not go nearly far enough to add any substance to the story. There were definitely some cute moments, and I honestly really enjoyed some of the text exchanges in the middle of the story, but apart from that… meh. I found Brendon quite annoying, and though I liked Darcy and Elle was fine, there was really nothing in this book to set it apart from the dozens of other romances I've read. Plus, I just did not vibe with the writing style (and I thought it needed a bit more editing). The sexy scenes were good, though.
