Quite possibly the strangest, most whimsical historical Rom-Com I’ve ever read, I loved every second of it!
Definitely different from Sally Thorn’s other work but if you love a quirky, eccentric and confident FMCs then you’ll absolutely love Angelika. The romance was actually rather sweet (once you get past the whole raising a man from the dead after shopping for body parts at the morgue), I also loved the way consent was handled when it came to their relationship —this might just be my all time fave reimagining of Frankenstein.
It’s is fairly lighthearted but given subject material, I’d still suggest checking TW/CWs
