I LOVED this book!
It's fun, exciting, tumultuous and sapphic.
It's incredibly written with one of the most enjoyable narrators I've read.
I was rooting for our two main characters from the beginning, and there are a cast of lovable side characters who made me laugh out loud (I very much want a friend like Miss Lysistrata Bickle!).
The plot is winding and I truly didn't know where it was going to go, but in a way that kept me on the edge of my seat and not wanting to put my book down, even at 3am.
There are plenty of regency-style rom-coms, but the integrations of magic and the otherworldly in this story is an incredible choice. Hall handles the intersection of magic and the strict rules of the Ton so well, so much so that I want more stories from this incredible world that he has created.
An incredible story, will be recommending to all my friends.

I loved this book. A Sapphic Regency romance involving a serious curse brought on by an excess of good manners, plus fairy textiles, Sulis Minerva rising from the springs at Bath, picnic-adjacent naiads and some magical chickens. With literary references scattered lightly through it like the most wonderful glittery confetti. The story is related by Robin Goodfellow (fallen on hard times, writing for a living) who you may remember from one of Shakespeare’s plays. Where he was *not* credited for his contribution.

A frolicsome delight, which is as much about stories, and how stories are told, as anything else. Thanks (yet again) for the joy, Alexis Hall.

This book is just delightful. Hall is so talented at writing funny, sexy rom-coms that leave me with the biggest smile on my face, and this one is no exception. Seeing Miss Mitchelmore open up and explore new romance was so much fun, and I kept chuckling to myself at Hall’s dry jokes - I will read anything they write in the future and highly recommend all of their books.

Such a lot of fun! For anyone who loves Georgette Heyer-esque Regency historical rom-coms, you'll adore the tonnish style of the plot, and for those of us who love magic and witchery and faerie, then having Robin Goodfellow as the narrator adds a lot of wry humour. I was expecting the sapphic elements to be spicier, but they are none the worse for being less graphic than some sexier rom-coms. I loved it, and if there is more from this author, I'll be seeking those out. Recommended.

I ended up really loving Mortal Follie by Alexis Hall.
It was so much fun to read and I really loved the characters.
I also loved the way this book was written!
I definitely highly recommend this book!
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.
