muguete 's review for:
My Sweet Folly
by Laura Kinsale
1,5 stars
Big, big disappointment. Delighted by [b:Flowers from the Storm|360259|Flowers from the Storm|Laura Kinsale|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1275622146s/360259.jpg|788122], I couldn't wait to read something more by Laura Kinsale. I would say that only 10 percent of the book was a romance. At most. The rest, well... if I would like to read some adventure, action, I would choose authors who write proper thrillers, espionage novels etc. "My sweet Folly" is bad romance, and bad thriller, I'm afraid.
What I liked:
- beginnig: the letters were really promising :)
- some secondary characters (especially the lady who was knitting)
What I especially disliked:
- main hero being jerk and asshole
- that I didn't care about hero and heroine and didn't find emotions, for which I look in romances
- sex scenes - few and poor.
