A fun, light-hearted read that proclaims its love of books from the rooftops while being entertaining.
Merrilee is a self-confessed romantic. For the first part of the book this was rather infuriating . She lives every moment picturing herself in the pages of a novel, and her endless fantasising about every boy she meets became frustrating. However, once she tones this down and gets on with being a little less gushing she’s good fun.
Loosely, this is a modernisation of Pride and Prejudice, with Merrilee taking her time to realise her true feelings for Head’s son, Fielding. She’s surrounded by good friends and it sends a really positive message.
Thank you NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read this in exchange for my review.
