If I'm being perfectly honest with myself, I've done a shamefully poor job of addressing my love for Cat Sebastian 's books around these parts. I've certainly noted each time her beautiful stories have appeared on my end-of-the-year best of lists, see: The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes , basically every book in The Cabots series , and of course We Could Be So Good . And the pull is, quite simply, this: nobody is as kind and gentle with their characters and with their hearts than Cat Sebastian. Nobody. I haven't always been one for the gentler stories, but I cannot overstate the absolute gift it is sinking into one of Sebastian's exquisitely crafted historicals knowing that I get to spend the next however many pages watching two idiots pine and deny that feelings exist and just take care of each other as they fall in love. I wouldn't trade that experience for the world. Not this one or any other. Only two things in the world people count by months. H
yay Jennifer Crusie! Bet Me is definitely my favorite, but I love Fast Women too.

ReplyDeleteBooks under the tree--such a comforting sight. Have fun with all those reads. Glad to see a couple of Kristan Higgins books there. :)
Very nice. Is that a different edition of Bet Me? And I keep meaning to try reading Kristen Higgins, but when I'm in the bookstore I BLANK on her name. Really should write it down.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a Merry Christmas!
