My Thoughts

SHADES OF MILK AND HONEY was a fun twist on regency romance. I loved the magical aspect of the story. I thought the magic system was really interesting and wished it were real. I think more kissing would’ve made the story better. More kissing always makes the story better, especially in modernized regency romances. I do wish Kowal hadn’t tried so hard to imitate Austen’s language. The weird wording and spellings took me out of the story rather than immerse me in it more fully.
