Scales and Sensibility

This was fun and cozy. I love the Regency era. Nice change of pace between chunky epics.

The dragons were such a small part of this story that if they were replaced by any other animal it wouldn't impact the story in any way.
The romance was very insta-love which I thought we overcame years ago, but I guess not.

So, off the cuff – Romance is not my usual genre of reading, but this sounded like a cute, easy read – so I figured, why not? It was that, cute. There was nothing that was just drawing me back to read it, so I took my time with the book, not devouring it in one sitting.
The heroine, Elinor, I will admit was a bit lacking in some areas, but so were many of the characters. It seemed to sort of wander in the center of the book, before returning to a somewhat more tangible read. Elinor, though, for her faults, is trying to be what everyone expects, until she is pushed to a breaking point. Enter the dashing hero, and a rather peculiar scholar.
This follows a lot of the same lines as many romances. Girl meets guy, develops a crush, and so on and so forth. One of the fun parts of this book for me was the dragon, Sir Jessamyn. He was rather cute, and a bit of the savior of the book.
For the romance lovers out there, this is one that you will enjoy.
Out of 10, I give this book a 5.
