The Courting of Bristol Keats by Mary E. Pearson

4.25

I was not sure what to expect here and it was a pleasantly surprised! Without her parents, Bristol Keats is trying to take care of her sisters by delivering pizzas and trying to sell her parents art. When a letter comes from a mysterious aunt offering to help, Bristol discovers the truth about her parents and is thrust into the wiley politics of the fae. I really enjoyed the world-building and Bristol's characterization, but it took me a bit to warm up to the romance of this book, but by the end I was becoming convinces. I do wish the core plot moved a bit quicker, but I also appreciate that not every romantasy has to end with a huge set piece to round out the story. I'm interested in seeing where this one goes! Drink this book: Enjoy with something floral and fruity like Muscat.
