Unclear setting: the setting was.ambiguous. Here are some problems I had with this book that kept it from being anything more than a 2 rating.ġ. I really am not exaggerating about the boobs. They try to find the culprit, all the while trying to figure out HOW TO CONTAIN HER BOOBS. Annabel is plucked from a nunnery to wed a Scottish laird when her sister falls through. Well, except for the main character, Annabel, whom I found rather intolerably stupid and untrue to character. The characters are simple, likeable, one-dimensional. Everything is extremely silly, including the main character, and there are no grand entanglements of emotion or misunderstanding that gets in the way of true love. That's not to say it's not enjoyable, for me, it was an extremely easy read, an excellent beach read, because there is no thinking involved. Look no further for deep character development, you will find none here. It is a very simple book, there is zero complexity here. In fact, I'm pretty sure her legendary bosom has more words devoted to their bounteousness than some supporting characters within the book. Seriously, with all the hullabaloo made over Annabel's boobs, they deserve a place in the title. Alternate title: An English Bride (and her tits) in Scotland.
