Interpretation During Books Ten Things I Love About You (Bevelstoke #3)
Annabel Winslow is in a pickle. Having newly arrived in London for her first season and being in possession of a voluptuous figure, is being openly courted the the Earl of Newbury, who is at least 75 and a nasty brute to boot. Annabel does not want to marry him, of course, but feels that she has no choice since her father has recently died and left the whole family, including Annabel's mother and her 7 siblings, almost destitute. Then, while attending a party in the countryside, Annabel met Sebastian Grey, the Earl of Newbury's nephew. And suddenly she found herself not only courted by the lecherous uncle, but also the charming young nephew. Should she follow her heart so that she can be with the one she loves, or should she marry the loathsome earl just so she can put food on the table for her family and make sure that her brothers get to stay in school?

Hum, should I list the 10 things I liked about this book, or the 10 things I didn't like?As a compromise, I will list 5 of each.Liked:1. The Hero, Sebastian, was a rake. I'm a sucker for a rake.2. The heroine has a great sense of humor and laughs out loud. Not in a lady-like way. I love when someone snort-laughs. It makes me laugh so much harder.3. The hero writes books that are ridiculous. One of his characters is killed by a pigeon.4. The love story is cute and awwwww-worthy.5. The grandma,Sometimes I give 4 stars to books for no reason at all. It just means that the story is very good, but for some reason it lacked that special something that would turn it into a 5-star read. And I guess that's what's called personal taste. But I always have a reason for 3-star ratings. Always.Except this time I don't. The hero is wonderful. He's exactly my type of hero. Even the heroine is okay. Nothing stands out about her and she is a bit indifferent, IMO, but she's definitely not bad or
4.5 stars* Thanks Marla for the recommendation!
In the spirit of the book, I will attempt to review this book using 10 talking points. :)1. First and foremost, I really loved both of the main characters. Annabel was sweet and smart and strong and had a good sense of humor. Sebastian was charming, witty, handsome, and everything you'd want a lead male to be in HR. They ended up being quite adorable together, and it is the two of them together that kept me reading this book. 2. For the most part, this falls under the cute and fluffy HR
This book had its funny and cute and entertaining moments, but was a pretty dismal JQ romance. I have to admit, the Lord of Newbury just creeped me the hell out. I know that it was a viable plot point - women being forced into marriages with older men is a Regency staple as far as plotlines go - but it was just so skeevy and gross that it really sucked away some of my enjoyment of the story.Seriously, Sebastian is so lovely, and it sucks that his story involves someone as dull, ho-hum, and
This was such a sweet story, that is was a candy I ask in my best Oliver Twist voice May I have some more? I didnt want this book to end! Sebastian Grey, Sebastian Grey. I adored Sebastian Grey whom stole the show in What Happens in London, and to say I was eagerly awaiting his book would be an understatement .But, like other readers hoping for a book and it turns out really bad, I kept myself in check. Thankfully, I didnt have to, as 10 things I Love About You was everything I hoped it be.
There were 10 things about Sebastian and Annabel that i do love most:1. He loves Annabel for being herself, an amazing, intelligent, kindhearted, ridiculously competitive woman he has ever met.2. He loves to devote himself to the singular task of making her smile.3. He loves her smile4. He loves her laugh5. He loves the utter genuineness and generosity of her heart.6. She loves him so splendidly well7. She loves his secret8. She loves his writing career9. She loves the way he always made her
