Highwood is considering sending her three daughters to stay at Spindle Cove. She is revered by both the men and the women. Susanna Finch is the daughter of the only local “gentleman”, Sir Lewis Finch, albeit an ignored daughter, and is the leader of her community. But Spindle Cove is a safe place for women to come. Spindle Cove has gained the reputation as a retreat for women, so much so that it is called Spinster’s Cove by some (a term probably coined by a male to be derisive). On the micro scale, I felt that the two protagonists were portrayed as much more balanced. On the macro scale, I thought you were less successful in portraying this because the entire story is about how this bucolic retreat for women was made better by a male outsider coming in and changing the male/female dynamic. However, the battle of the sexes stories are notoriously difficult to do because you have to make sure that you don’t demonize one sex in order to elevate the other. At times, I just wanted to squeeze the book it was so darn adorable. I have cows though which can depict a gentle, pastoral setting.īut alas, my Lego helpers have abandoned me for other things.Ī Night to Surrender is the battle of the sexes story. I don’t have a carriage but I did debate buying one. I have minifigs where the girl’s boobs look like they are busting out of her top like any decent romance heroine. You are well known for your cute toy filled book trailers ( Stud Club Trilogy / Maya Banks’ Highlander Trilogy) and I was tempted to do a lego review for this book.
