soozn 's review for:
My Sweet Folly
by Laura Kinsale
Overall I think it wasn't as much of a mess as I'd been expecting after reading some reviews. However I would still very much like to read the book that was set up in the amazing prologue instead of the book I got. What an intriguing, well written, engaging masterpiece of an intro. The book held so much potential at that point. It didn't quite live up to that potential for me but I still liked it. As with most Kinsale novels, it was a very unusual and complex tale she wove that felt a little overwrought and could have ended a bit sooner or been whittled down a bit.
I liked Folly very much. She and Robert both were incredibly funny, especially when bantering with one another. I really felt for Robert. He was so damaged that he honestly didn't know how to behave within a "normal" loving spousal relationship. I could buy into his behavior for the most part but I definitely wanted more of a resolution. What was offered was far too abrupt. "Everything's good now, The End." :/
But the ferret. OMG. Laura Kinsale knows how to write animals into books! I found every scene and every mention of the ferret hilarious. The ferret interactions even made me like the characters more, not to mention LOL at several points.
