What a "Purr-fect" book!, July 15 2002
This review is from: Christmas Kittens (Paperback)
I actually picked this up secondhand, and boy am I glad I did! All the stories are wonderful, but "A Purrfect Christmas for the Marquis" is my favorite. Though the kittens didn't have too much of a major role in this story, the plot and characters were quite believable. I loathed the spoiled, self-centered cousin and cheered for the loveable, bright little girls. The budding romance between the hero and heroine (both of whom are trying to get out from under a family member's thumb) touched my heart without being too sappy. I highly recommend this book!

Light, charming, whimsical Christmas regencies, Oct 30 1998
This review is from: Christmas Kittens (Paperback)
I'm a sucker for anything Christmas, or anything regency, but even so, I found these stories charming, particularly "The Magnificat". If traditional regencies -- light, sparkling, and funny -- are your cup of tea, I recommend this.

Read for LOLs, and not even that great of ones., July 22 2010
By T. Betts - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Christmas Kittens (Paperback)
I will admit that I did not actively seek out this book. It was a donation to my library and I decided not to add it to our library's collection. However, I took it home rather than add it to our free book pile. I was hoping it would be better than the cover suggested and I do like Regency romance novels.
This book is awful. The first story is alright, a bit simplistic and rushes into an ending that doesn't really make sense, but it was readable. The second story was written so poorly and in such a stilted style that it was too painful to read. I didn't even bother with reading the third story. I would never spend money on this book, but I will put it on display for mocking purposes.
