“La Lola seems to be on a bit of a Julia Quinn roll. Her latest offering, “The Secret Diaries of Miss Miranda Cheever” is a light-hearted romp. La Lola hasn’t been particularly enamoured of her later efforts in The Saga Which Is The Bridgertons AND Their Second Epilogues, although her earlier efforts were a lot of fun. But it’s still a return to form for Ms Quinn.

Whilst I think that a lot of authors try to emulate her style, their efforts lack a certain je ne sais quoi (ie French for “I’m too lazy to think of an expression.”) These books sadly fall a trifle limp, like the last disastrous date that La Lola was on. (”Is that its normal state, or is it really, really cold in here?”)

Sassy!”
“I absolutely love Julia Quinn - just the right amount of everything. This one was a bit off the typical recency romance and probably why I liked it so much. It was a very fast read (wish all books were made in this nice larger type - even if they are longer).”

“I have read her Bridgerton Series and they were great. But this book was disappointing. I really expected something more exciting. Let me tell you the story. Miranda the lead character is in love with Turner her best friend’s brother. A cliché story, as we all knows how the story ends.

And I'm even more shocked that this book won awards. It is a good read to all who enjoy a good romantic boy meets girl falls in love ……………..
But I expected more from Julia Quinn.

“This book was sweet, I really enjoyed seeing Miranda's cute little girl crush grow to love and Turners constant battle to contain his desire for her .. one problem with this is that Miranda a little (just a little) whiny for my taste but i guess her personality allows her to be that and we loved both charecters

“Julia Quinn is at it again. Miranda and Turner are a great couple. They've known each other for years. Miranda is Turner's younger sister's best friend. Miranda fell in love with Turner when she was 10. It's cute to see her childish adoration and then gratifying to see it mature into real love. Turner is a good wounded hero. Miranda and Turner have great chemistry and witty conversations. This book did not dissapoing.”
