Brynnde Archambault needs to find someone to marry, or else she'll be stuck with dull Mr. Dallweather. The answer to her problem arrives in the form of handsome and witty Viscount Burbridge, but just when everything seems to be going smoothly, scandal strikes, and the engagement ends. Meanwhile, Brynnde has no trouble matchmaking her friends and even her own brother. But while she breezily finds suitors for everyone else, for her, time is running out. Must she resign herself to becoming Mrs. Dallweather? Or will Brynnde yet succeed in making a match for herself?

A Short and Sweet Regency Romance

This was a really sweet quick "read" that made my commute that much less annoying! The narration was FABULOUS - I really felt pulled into the timeframe by the voice. Brynnde did suffer from more than a little bit of "not like other girls" syndrome which made it hard to get into, but overall I'm glad I finished it!

In the enchanted kingdom of Brooklyn, the fashionable people put on cute shoes, go to parties in warehouses, drink on rooftops at sunset, and tell themselves they've arrived. A whole lot of Brooklyn is like that now - but not Vassa's working-class neighborhood. In Vassa's neighborhood, where she lives with her stepmother and bickering stepsisters, one might stumble onto magic, but stumbling out again could become an issue.

Blast of a modern retelling!

What did you like best about this story?
This was an absolute blast of a book! It had a very surreal American Gods sort of vibe, and I was surprised by just how well the Russian folk story Vasalisa the Beautiful translated into modern Brooklyn and creepy corner stores. Just really stunning, if pretty dark & gory in spots. Trigger warning for beheadings, I guess? I've already recced it to half a dozen people at this point. I will rec it to more, too ;) Definitely looking forward to more of Sarah Porter's books!
Would you listen to another book narrated by Madeleine Maby?
Sadly this very much had the "soprano trying to do guys' voices" issue I sometimes have - all of her male characters sounded like she was forcing them out & they were just harsh on the ear.
