Sex, Lies and Sensibility

This takeoff of Sense and Sensibility is so subtly and skillfully done that I would probably not have clocked it as a takeoff at all on the first reading if the front cover and character names hadn't telegraphed it. Which is not a complaint! I don't come across books in the romance space that are written with such clear literary sensibilities, especially with such (fantastic) spicy scenes included. As someone who very much enjoys that sort of thing I found this glorious. (The first chapter of this book especially is in and of itself Literature and should be taught in college classes. It's that good.)
