Blameless

I was either not very attentive or basically all they’re doing here is running around. Blameless has a classic middle book vibe. Nothing happens in and on itself, but a ton of info is put into it to get the plot of the next book going. And what is Sergeant Getting-engaged-to-every-Girl-in-London planning? It’s so obviously placed as “only girls gossiping, nothing to see here” that he has to be up to something.

For the rest of the book, Alexia discovers pesto and finds out about [Spoiler if you haven’t read the previous book yet] how the Infant Inconvenience could possibly have happened and what it means in the long run. And the title of the book series, The Parasol Protectorate is finally explained. It’s book 3 already, I almost thought there’d never be the opportunity to add that title into the narrative.

meine Rezension: amerdale.wordpress.com/2014/06/11/gelesen-gail-carriger-blameless/

Love, love LOVE this series. I cannot get over how much I love it. This is probably THE BEST romance I've ever read. I just love everything about it. I think that's word for word exactly what I said in the reviews of the other two books. Sigh...this series is just awesome. Fun, sweet, funny, clever. And a kick ass female protagonist. Love it.

I thought this dragged a bit in the middle. Nothing really happened, despite all the attacks. Also, I wasn't as shocked by the nature of the inconvenience as maybe the author hoped I would be. Lastly, I thought it ended pretty abruptly. Obviously there's more to the story and Heartless comes next but the last 2 chapters or so read like the last half hour to HP:7 part 1. You know there's more coming, but a true ending to this half of the story would have been appreciated.

So very lovely, so very fluff, but also non-fluff.
