I think I read nearly all the storylines in this, so I'm going to call it read.

This was a funny choose-your-own-adventure book set back in time. There are multiple very different adventures "you" can go on in this book, some that you won't see coming! It had portions of graphic sex acts, as well as so many cheeky humorous parts. I do recommend that this be read as a physical copy, as maneuvering through the ebook was not too easy.

Original, fun, and romantic, My Lady's Choosing is the perfect read for when you don't want to work for the fun, but instea let it sweep you away on your very own adventure.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest opinion.

An fun and original idea for grown-ups, this novel is an interactive historical romance. I love the concept, where the reader chooses the next course the characters take, and it is lots of silly fun. There is some depth that's missing and the romance lacks steamy sizzle, but overall this work would be a good gift idea.

Net Galley Feedback

This book is the most silly fun I've had in a long time. I'm not sure it would be great for fans who take their romance very seriously, but anyone who doesn't mind having the ridiculousness of many romance tropes pointed out to them will really enjoy the ride. I'm all for more choose-your-own path books-- it's nice to have a love triangle you get to control for once! I'm going to have to go back and choose a different character next time!

I thought it was bit fun, and i loved the comic style - probably something i wouldn't stock all year round, but could be a fun one for valentines day?

Full disclosure: I was trying to read this on my phone as an ARC, so it could have partially been the medium, but I just couldn't get into this. The characters seemed flat and I didn't really want to have a relationship with any of them. Also, there were several times where "I" felt some emotion that I wasn't feeling...I wasn't "annoyed," "intrigued" or whatever. Might be better as an actual book, but I will probably not be going back to this.

I have very fond memories of reading choose your own adventure books when I was a kid, so I was very excited to try out a grown up version. My Lady's Choosing did not disappoint. As the heroine of the story, I had many important choices to make - because it is a romance, many of these decisions were of a more intimate nature. I liked that there was a balance between story and romance. There was always a non-sexual choice that could be made, which let the reader choose how clean the story would be.
I read three storylines through to the end. I have not gone back and made different choices to see how my story would change, yet. My Lady's Choosing lived up to my fond memories of juvenile choose your own adventure books. I would definitely read more by the authors.

Yes, this is a choose your own adventure romance novel! I don't read a lot of romance, but I couldn't resist this premise, at least once I heard that there was a path where you could turn your back on the suitors and run off with a lady instead! This was, above all, super fun. It's Jane Austen-ish, so if you're a fan of riffs on Austen, this is well worth picking up (though I'm not an Austen fan and I still loved it.)

I fully expected to find the F/F option and only read that storyline (see the ladies in the bottom right corner of the cover?), but I ended up enjoying it enough that I followed almost every path. Depending on which choices you make, you end up in very different situations and genres, including a Gothic Jane Eyre-esque plot line, or more of a Pride and Prejudice angle. 

When I was first making my way through the book, I actually hesitated before pursuing the lady love interest. It just didn't feel like the way this romance novel would go! It's one this to choose between (basically) Mr Darcy and Mr Rochester, but running off with your female friend seems unfathomable. But that's the whole point! Imagine reading a M/F romance novel: you're plodding along, all the love interests have been introduced, and your friend (whom you clearly have more chemistry with than the dudes) throws out that, hey, if you want, you can travel to Egypt with her instead. You reach that point in the book and sigh. Image if she had taken her up on that! Imagine if instead of heading to the drafty castle or trading quips with the asshole rich guy, you just skipped town and went on an Egyptian adventure instead! Only this time, you can!

I kind of was expecting the F/F storyline to be an easter egg that you would have to seek out, but it's pretty obvious. In fact, the chemistry between you and your friend seems more palpable earlier in the narrative than with any of the men. It's also interesting because while most of the paths you can take are versions of famous romances in literature, the Egyptian storyline is completely different. Search for an artifact stolen from an Egyptian museum, and encounter your lady love interest's angry ex-girlfriend! Maybe end up in a lesbian, pirate gang! (Yes, you can do that. Definitely try to get to that point.)

One of the fun things is that because this is a romance novel, you can't really lose. Romance conventions dictate that you have a happy ending, so it's interesting to see how you can get away with a happy ending no matter what you do. I highly recommend backtracking and following a few different paths, just to see how different they are. I loved this bisexual, choose your own adventure, historical, satirical romance novel. It was a joy to read, even when it was M/F! 

[Review to be posted at the Lesbrary on the publishing date]

What an amazing idea! A choose-your-own-adventure romance novel. I thoroughly enjoyed this. It's really not about the story line in this case (though that was a lot of fun too), but rather it's about making the story your own. Brilliant fun that I enjoyed for hours on end. I picked it up quite a few times to find another story 'route' and I encourage you to do the same!

I couldn’t read this book. It wouldn’t open on my kindle nor could I figure out how to downloaded anywhere else so I could read it. Sorry.

3,5/5 stars.

From the beginning, it seemed to me that My Lady’s Choosing was going to be a fun read and I was definitely not wrong. It was such a breath of fresh air by its structure and concept. For those of you who don’t know, this book is an interactive book in which, as you read along, you choose how the story goes as you are the main character. Yes, you read me right; this book is all about you and the choices you’re given and decide to go with. And through this, My Lady’s Choosing enables you to live your wildest fantasies with British men of the aristocracy or a Scotsman of the Highlands – much Outlander vibes in this last case, all mixed with scandal, secrets and adventures.

Now, I admit that although I truly enjoyed reading My Lady’s Choosing and the multiple stories my choices created, I think that this was an okay and nothing more. This book will not have an everlasting impact on me or on impact at all, that is. It was nice, sweet but quickly over. This was like watching a nice movie, all cuddled up on the couch, after work. I still found it fun as it was the first ever Choose Your Own Adventure sort of book that I ever read, but just I do not think that this kind of particular book is for me.

However, even though this was not exactly the perfect read for me, I would still definitely recommend it to any (Historical) Romance fans out there – you will love this and more than enjoy yourselves as you shape your life in Britain whether it is along the aristocracy or in the Highlands of Scotland. I gave it a 3,5/5 stars.

I loved Choose Your Own Adventure books as a child, so I was intrigued to see how it would suit the romance genre. The last time I read a book in this style I was about 10, so I was keen to see how it could work for adults.

The 'you' in this story is an eighteenth century heroine who has fallen on hard times. Forced into being a companion to a grumpy society lady, you head off to a ball and the story goes whichever way you choose. The book is full of handsome and eligible bachelors vying for your attention (there's even a beautiful society lady, if you prefer) and lots of options. You could go and help a hunky Scotsman run his school for orphans, head off to Egypt to explore or solve an inheritance mystery - the options are plentiful.

Once you get beyond the slightly odd second person perspective, there's lots of fun to be had here. I've read three different versions already and will go back for more. There's some slightly jarring language if you are serious about your historical fiction and some rather racy scenes, but everything is done in a lovely, light-hearted way.

I'd recommend this to anyone who is looking for a light, fun read. It's entertaining and there's certainly never a dull moment!

This is a fun choose your own adventure. I did not make it to all of the endings, but I did do most of them. So unless the couple I missed have your character dying some horrible death, every story has a happy ending. It is sweet, but part of the allure of the choose your own adventure novels is the potential dangers and knowing that you can make a wrong choice which will lead you to dying in a ditch in Seven Dials from dysentery. The writing is very historical romance novel, just as it should be, but it is missing some more dangerous and potentially deadly plot choices. For example, the whole Mad Wife in the Attic/Bluebeard vibe story would have been MUCH better if one of the story choices really did lead you to the mad wife in the attic who tries to kill you or to the hero being Bluebeard who pushes you off the tower for daring to enter the off limits room.

I love choose your own adventure books, though there doesn't seem to be enough of them published nowadays. I read though the book multiple times and enjoyed almost every ending. The book is well written and engaging, Would recommend for fans of historical romance.

Super, super cute. Love that one of the storylines is f/f! Its very silly good fun and an outrageous historical romp.

Such a fun concept - a Regency choose your own adventure for adults. The men in question are a combination of your Bronte/Austen/Outlander (?) archetypes. The book is tongue in cheek and playful - historical accuracy is glanced at if not fully explored but that suits the character of this book. Definitely better suited to print than a PDF - but a very fun ride! I'd definitely recommend.

I have only had time to read through one scenario so far but I hope to read through them all. I had such a fun time choosing my own romance that I think I am ruined for regular romance titles. I hope this will be an ongoing series. It reminded me of my childhood and brought a sense of whimsy to my day and a spring in my step.
I couldn't wait to finish so I was sneaking snippets of reading in during my work day.
A most enjoyable read!

This is a great idea, and aside from formatting issues with the kindle, the PDF version allowed me to navigate more easily when picking my path.

I liked the idea of a pick your path romance, and I love regency and historical settings. The story was very humorous at times. I am looking forward to seeing the book in print form.

This was a really fun book. There were a lot of choices I could make and I would go back to see the other paths. Now, since this book was more about all the different paths you can take there isn't much time spent building up romances and one romance was so poorly developed I wanted one of the endings to be the main character killing him.

Oh what fun!! I love chose your own adventure stories and this book does that with the regency romances that I adore. Yes, most of these stories really on insta-love and are pretty silly but I liked it!

Now that the ARC is a PDF that you can actually navigate via the page numbers instead of having to try to math your way through the kindle locations, it's worth downloading and reading. This book is pretty fun. It's exactly what's advertised, a Choose Your Own Adventure romance novel. The illustrations were a treat I wasn't expecting. I enjoyed it. 3.5 stars
