Thank you Berkley and Netgalley for the free arc in exchange for an honest review!
As Mexican Middle child bookworm, this book was so exposing (in the best way) . Isabel was a character that I deeply saw myself in and could relate to. This is the kind of representation that I adore and appreciate.
Isabel is an absolute favorite character of mine, seeing her flourish and find love that was reassuring for her made me so emotional because she truly deserves the best.
Liana De La Rosa did such an amazing job in writing Isabel's story, she truly didn't disappoint.
I love how Isabel didn't cave into the ton's judgment. She is such a badass on her own, and I am glad that this book showcased her talents. She is more than a Wallflower!!!
Sirius is literally perfect for Isabel, he sees her for who she is and allows her to shine. Seeing him go from a Rake to a star struck obsessed partner to Isabel was so fulfilling. Seeing his passion and love for Isabel made me sooooo feral.
I think it's important to acknowledge that a huge part of the book is the historical aspect, so the romance isn't the only main feature that is showcased in this book. I enjoyed the historical richness of this book!
Political intrigue is another one of the main factors in this book, which I believe everyone should be aware of!
When I catch Lady Needham I will literally FIGHT her... (You guys will understand soon enough)
I loved the ending too, I cannot share exactly what happened due to spoilers but guys I am afraid that it devoured!
I am excited to see what Liana de la Rosa has next in store for Gabby!!
