Welcome to my blog. I write about fitting in, sticking out, and missing the motherland as a serial foreigner.

The Viscount Who Loved Me (Bridgertons, #2)The Viscount Who Loved Me by Julia Quinn
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Meh, this book was too "area manly man is manly" for me. I did think that I enjoyed it when the siblings were playing croquet but then there was a whole second (!) epilogue about the siblings playing croquet and I couldn't be bothered to read it. Meh it is.

The Guest ListThe Guest List by Lucy Foley
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Did I devour this in about a day? Yes. Did I guess alllll of the twists? Also yes! I can totally understand really liking this author's books but I don't think I'll be reading any more of them. Her characters are such hateful people and there are always needlessly gross sideplots. It's just not for me.
