Yay. I'm finally reading again. Not that I entirely stopped but I did cut back over the past few weeks while I was busy with other things. So with no further ado here is my review of Lisa Kleypas's 'Scandal In Spring'.

I enjoy a quirky heroine and Daisy Bowman fulfilled this in all the nicest ways for me. There's a scene of lawn bowls in this book that had me grinning right through, especially when Daisy became so irate she started taking after Lilian and swearing. Hee. Matthew Swift was a lovely combination of vulnerability and austerity, smitten with Daisy from the first page and struggling so hard to do what was best for her - namely avoid her like the plague. The cast of characters in this mini-series have all been highly enjoyable, and their presence in Daisy's book was no exception. I take my hat off to Lisa Kleypas's skill as a storyteller, and look forward to being equally entertained by her next book.
