Up All Night with a Good Duke


LOVED IT!  I mean this was cheesy, unbelievable, and over the top and I want more of it. Immediately. Artemis leaves her teaching position to have another season in London so she can help her best friend and her younger sister. She's not there to find a man, she just wants to keep her independence and save up enough to open her own school for ladies. She runs, quite literally, into the Dastardly Duke of Dartmoor and the two hit it off. Maybe she can have some fun this season, because the Duke is very charming and very handsome. Maybe they can come to some sort of an agreement. Cheesy, but I ATE IT UP. I don't care. Ordering the next book stat ;)

So stinking cute! I loved all the characters in this novel and I wanted to be in their friend group (and I'm an adult!). Told through the alternating storylines of Millie, an overweight teen who wants to attend journalism camp and get closer to her crush, and Callie, a seemingly perfect soon to be dance captain who lives for dancing. When Callie gets caught in a prank that goes wrong she finds herself having to work with Mille, a girl she would have otherwise never talked too. Callie soon discovers that everyone who she  thought was a friend has turned their back on her and the only one who is giving her a chance is Millie and her friends. Maybe being a mean girl isn't so great and maybe she can actually develop some real friendships and get her life back on track. Wonderful and full of body positivity!
