Check-ins/Updates:
Before I begin:
A few keys π from the synopsis 1) showed-in = close proximity 2) abandoned baby π€πΌ found family 3) the holidays can make you π so seeking out peace before the storm is understandable.
Chapter 6
Always work on getting oriented the 1st 5 chapters π€ So far, the story is vastly different from how I anticipated π€ Itβs intriguing π€¨ Glad that π even early in on the story, π players are interested. So, even while weβre piecing stuff together, it reinforces how books can be puzzles π§© too (meant to be solved ππ½) The attraction between Vim and Sopjie grows β₯οΈ Theyβre still learning about each other π€ Makes me wonder π€ how much of their dynamic is because Sophie needs Vim vs. genuine attraction π€·π½ββοΈ Vim with Kit π I couldnβt blame Sophie for being attracted to Vim π
Vimβs finally agreed to stay a night ππ½ Sophie is anxious about being alone with Kit. Learn Vim if from a Baron family and Sophie is from a Dukeβs family but the other party doesnβt know π€·π½ββοΈπ
Chapter 17
The arrival of Sophieβs brothers (3) rejuvenated the story for me. Finally saw a change of scenery ππ½ Just as the relationship between Sophie and Vim gets deeper. Meet new people too! Helps to see Sophie and Vim among people was nice π I love romance and see how there could be complaints about the heavy emphasis on Kit, but I like to see family dynamics too π
End of book π
