3.0 out of 5 stars
A Light-hearted read,
By Flower Girl (MN, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Marriage Scheme (Harper Monogram) (Paperback)
This story was about a seventeen year old school-girl schemed a plan to tried to find a potential husband for her windowed mother, and along the way found a husband for herself as well.
The reading was fun and easy, and the heroine was lively and mischievous. But I found it was also a long and tedious read. It was well and noble to lighten Georgia's mother's loneliness, but there were too many pranks and coyness to keep the reading flowing. It is a warning sign, when one skipped few pages but still without missing much of the plot...And this was what I found I was doing one-third way through the book. The book had a promising beginning, it would certainly made it more a enticing read by having a bit more of characters study. All in all, this was a decent read which I would even consider to recommend it to young readers.

An excellent look inside a young lady's mind!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Marriage Scheme (Harper Monogram) (Paperback)
Kathleen Elliott has written an unusual first person Regency. Her heroine is naive without being a sap, and assertive without calling to mind that noxious word, "spunky"!
