And I would recommend reading them in the physical format (as the author is changing the scenes such as removing them to make them more modernly sensitive which I think changes how they feel as complete scenes are being removed) This series is based on four friends, who are wallflowers and help each other find husbands. This is the series to start with if you are new to this author. This is the most well-known and well-favored series this author has written (although it probably has a contender with the Hathaways) But this series, according to Goodreads, has the highest amount of ratings. And I adored them when I first read them. But these also portray what themes were popular back in this date of time with her own flair that still set herself apart from other authors and books.

But they also have a certain spark that is typical of Kleypas writing. They are also more of her gritty reads and can prove to be difficult reading for some readers. They do have more questionable of plots and sets of circumstances and you will see more grey areas of non consent or dubious consent moments. These are the books that tend to be of the forgotten at times and they are are also the more challenging of books. She writes such books that captivates instantly and has a certain “magic” in her writing style that is far different than anyone else.īelow you will see the books that are the earliest of the works and the books that started off this author’s career.

She has a certain style in writing romance that has won over so many hearts. She is an author I have always loved even her more morally questionable books (which had their time and place when they were written) She has written both historical and contemporary romance. I have been reading her since the very beginning.

(She has done a couple interviews on the SBTB Podcast) so its always so interesting to see her growth over the years and the various types of stories that she has been able to deliver. I will say that I absolutely adore Lisa Kleypas, as she is an author that is a lovely writer and a lovely person. Lisa Kleypas is still currently writing (at least I think she is, there hasn’t been an update since her latest release in 2021). The majority of her books are around the regency/victorian era and many of her books could face up to the scrutiny of modernized readers who have a more sensitive approach. Lisa Kleypas is a best-selling author and has been writing historical romance for decades she also is considered one of the “Queens” of writing historical romance. So for today, I am going to feature Lisa Kleypas, which is perfect as its also Lisa Kleypas Appreciate Week on Instagram.
