Book Review (more just a pile of my personal opinions from my personal experiences)

Title: The Worst Woman in London

Author: Julia Bennet

Year: 2023

Genre: Historical romance, romance

Queer shit: Nope

Vibe Check: Woman in 1800’s seeks divorce after 10 years with her husband, 8 years separated as he ‘sows his seeds’ wherever he wants and she is shamed for being a woman who wants to be free of him

Pile of Opinions: I understand historical context but this gave off big forgive the abuser vibes simply because he didn’t love her enough to be good. He still sucks. The two leads in this are great and fine and I enjoyed their story and it was very steamy and he was good to her but her ex was an absolute piece of shit and did not deserve any of the good things that happened to him in this book. Again, I understand historical context, but the misogyny in this book was infuriating. If you like steamy historical romances you will like this book, I just want to throw hands (and rocks) and her ex husband.
