Review of 'The Marquis of Carabas' on 'Goodreads'

Fun little Regency romance inspired by the tale of Puss n Boots. As it happens my grasp of that tale is more or less the Adam Ant song, so it was all fresh for me. I especially liked the descriptions of buildings and places. Hats and attire, of course, also play major parts. Especially hats.

A nice quick read when one needs something sweet and sort of familiar.
