I just want to live in this world forever, LOL!
Seriously, I love Emma and enjoy each new scrape she finds herself in. I am not sure if I agree with the love interest, but it is interesting and I am here for it.
Read for:
😂Agnes Dowd
😂The pirate-he is multi-faceted, and I think I am starting to like him
😂The fight-seriously Hawkes?
😂Who is Hannah?
😂Who smells like pears, and why is Hawkes writing to her?
😂the humor
😂the intrigue

😂church conversations
This series is seriously a delight! I can't get enough of it!! I own them all and have every intention of rereading them!!
★★★★★/5
Synopsis: (Goodreads)
"The image of Pandora’s Box being opened by my
own hand flashed across my mind. A sobering and somewhat disappointing
realization when one understands they are their own worst enemy."
The
Year is 1884 and Emma M. Lion has, at long last, gained her majority.
Entering a golden age of friendship with Pierce, Islington, and Hawkes,
Emma is confident she will manage whatever comes her way. It is The
Season she must help Arabella secure a husband, while navigating the
threat of Aunt Eugenia, the unflagging adoration of Charles Goddard, and
the amusing unpredictability of St. Crispian’s. But the secrets of her
trusted friends are what might very well bring about disaster.
Emma
M. Lion offers up her Unselected Journals, however self-incriminating
they may be. Armed with wit and a sideways amusement, Emma documents the
curious realities of her life at Lapis Lazuli House.
Readers
have compared The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion to Jane Austen,
P.G. Wodehouse, L. M. Montgomery, and Jean Webster.
