2019 reading challenge: A "choose your own adventure" type book

My Lady's Choosing: An Interactive Romance Novel by Kitty Curran

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


When the 2019 PopSugar Reading Challenge had a category of "choose your own adventure", I was not sure what I was going to do for the topic. But then I heard of "My Lady's Choosing", and being a not so closeted fan of well written Regency Romance, I knew I just had to.

In this book you are the heroine of the story and find yourself working as a lady's companion for a mean and spiteful dowager of a prominent family of London Society. At one party of the Season, you are given opportunities to change your fate. Do you run off with your employer's mysterious and dark nephew? The dashing man from the Scottish Highlands, or perhaps travel to Egypt with your employer's headstrong and independent niece?

Each branch brings to life a very strong and different Trope of the genre. I laughed my way through this book because the tropes were SOOOOOOOOOOOO obvious and ridiculous to be hysterical. The purple prose brought fits of laughter.

If you are a fan of Regency Romances and enjoy books that do not take themselves seriously, I really recommend this book.

Glad Game 2019: )Pretty much all of November

I need to get back to this regularly. It really does help with the brain weasels to find something good in each day.

As I am NOT going to go back and try to figure out/remember each day here's a summary of the month:

* I finished 6 books in November

* was maintaining my weight after FINALLY getting back to pre-Pennsic digits. But then Thanksgiving happened.

* Decluttered and reorganized a "hot spot" at home that has been weighing on me for ages.

* received a decent annual review.

* kept up with my Photo a Day challenges

* Thanksgiving vacation with Sis. went to a couple cool touristy things and did our annual Black Friday shopping
