![]() Sebastian, the Duke of Montgomery, has Queen Victoria’s ear as one of her most persuasive and influential sycophants, but only because she has him by the balls-er, that is, the castle. Through it all, though, Annabelle is happy to finally be doing something of worth: educating herself and becoming independent. In order to leave, she had to promise her cousin she’d send back “the money he will have to spend on a maid” every week (yeah, this guy is a shitheel), so she has to tutor other people, work for a professor, and run herself ragged just to make ends meet. It definitely feels more modern than the pages inside would suggest, but I don’t hate it.Īnnabelle Archer has finally escaped her dead-end life where her cousin stole all her family’s money (#VictorianLife) and has enrolled herself as one of the first female students at Oxford. I was immediately intrigued by a Victorian romance that didn’t feature an overly-intricate fancy dress and had such a cheery yellow background. ![]() ![]() ![]() I totally judged/picked this book by its cover. What’s Your Type? Enemies to lovers, uneven social statuses, women’s suffrage, bluestockings, rich duke problems ![]()
