The "Her Royal Spyness" series has become one of my go-to comfort reads when I need something light but not fluffy that I know will have enough of a mystery to keep me curious and more than a few scenes that will make me laugh. I've also grown attached to all the characters, and yes, it is a stret...
Full review on The Bent Bookworm!I like the time period of these little novels, and the fact that they’re set in England (Anglophile much, maybe?).
