THE GREAT MISFORTUNE OF STELLA SEDGWICK
A wildly entertaining standalone YA romance following a young Black woman trying to balance her independence with her future in 1860s London.
“This is a perfect book for those looking for a story that seamlessly blends the drama and diversity of the Bridgerton show, the ballrooms and quips of Pride and Prejudice (2005), and the stubborn nature of Emma’s titular character.”
