About Julia
Hi everyone! This is Julia of
The Broke and the Bookish, formerly blogging on my own at
The Competitive Bibliomaniac.
I read mostly historical romance, but can often be found reviewing paranormal romance, young adult books (mostly distopian/fantasy), fantasy/sci-fi, classics,
and the occasional non-fiction book about languages.
Feel free to follow and reblog!

Progress Post: No Good Duke Goes Unpunished
I've read 91 out of 279 pages.
I am unconvinced so far of the sins of Temple. Seriously,
(show spoiler)I think I am beginning to understand the background of our heroine more, but I just don't like the idea of people using other people as means to an end, and like shaming an entire gender for the sins of the few.
That said, I really want to see where this goes.
I've read 43 out of 279 pages.
Well, so far I am really not liking the heroine. She has a lot of redeeming to do in my eyes, which actually is quite refreshing when you think about it. Usually it's the hero who has to redeem themselves.
I like this concept though. It's something I definitely have not read before.
Also I love this:
He couldn't help but interrupt her. “You think that leaving me unconscious on the floor of my library assuaged my anger?”
“I covered you with a blanket,” she defended herself.
“Silly me. Of course, that resolves everything.”
