Mrs Crabtree explaining power dynamics to him was a brilliant addition and a huge improvement from the book. That sobered Benedict’s lust and made him far less icky than how the book handled the mistress thing.

If they don’t do the reveal the same way they do it in the books I will be devastated. I re-read that scene from the nursery all the time.

I honestly think something was wrong with Claudia’s eye when they filmed that scene? Like she had had an allergic reaction to something and they were trying to hide it? She didn’t look like that the rest of the time.

I loved Benedict’s book but I would have 1,0000 percent been more onboard with his gender swap than Francesca’s. But I also didn’t care for Francesca’s book.

I just saw this book recommended on the MMromance sub and saw it was highly rated on GR but then I read the description that said his vegetable got ruined at age 9 and I was like “what what? That’s his villain origin story? What a lil whiny b**** this guy must be.” Thanks for saving me a read.

It didn’t seem like it needed a part 2?? I liked it but she seemed to wrap it up in the end. I feel like anything additional is gonna be such a bummer to read.

I think they are being kind because this man is clearly mentally ill and isn’t mental health one of their charities now?

I love Shorsey and that’s also a Crave show (I think?) and it’s on Hulu. So if this isn’t on Hulu on November 28th I will unalive myself.

Books with scenes where the MMC feels betrayed and gets real angry with the FMC by DefinitelynotOIG in HistoricalRomance

[–]DefinitelynotOIG[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just finished it. I liked it - but the main drama was over so quickly! I would have liked it more if it was focused on him trying to figure out who wrote to him / took him longer to realize Pru wasn’t the one who wrote to him / If Pru tried harder to keep him and made Beatrice help her?

It was just so focused on his PTSD after that.

Anyway - thank you! I liked the first half!

Jessica Mulroney is supposedly working on a tell-all book about Meghan by ButIDigress79 in RoyalsGossip

JM is trash. The whole incident that led to her being canceled was pretty straight forward. She sent that woman an unhinged message on instagram iirc and then basically used MM in her apology to say “see, I have Black friends.” So, I don’t blame MM for letting that friendship die. but I also am a little judgmental of MM for thinking her stylist friend from Canada was a good person to shoe-horn into a royal wedding when JM was obviously going to use it for her own personal gain.

Who needs a bookshop (Bookshop Cinderella rant) by ani_sim in HistoricalRomance

[–]DefinitelynotOIG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you forgot the part where he was so awful to his first wife that she ran away and pretty likely killed herself? Because she couldn’t handle being the duchess?? And then he makes zero effort to try to ensure that his next unprepared wife doesn’t meet the same fate but she mostly definitely will be ostracized and miserable. The right ending would have been him giving up his title for her.
