Defy or Defend by Gail Carriger

5.0

As a long time lover of all things books...I've read my fair share! About 200 a year. It takes a bit to be memorable to me. Every book Gail Carriger writes is an automatic buy/ read for me. Its guaranteed to be well written with explicit care and talent. Funny, sweet, witty, exceptional, original and accepting characters This book specifically details what happens to Dimity after the Finishing School series ( by Gail Carriger of course) ends. Dimity is everything lovely, sparkly and caring. You follow dimity aka the honey bee and her safeguard Sir Crispin to fix and vampire hive in decline. They are the hives last hope...the hive just doesnt know it. There are NUMEROUS laugh out loud moments and lines in this book! Oh I cackled so much I spilled my tea. This book is at its heart a romantic adventure as well. Very LGBTQ friendly. As with all works by this author except nothing gritty and good ending. 10/10 recommend Also check out the Parasol Protectorate to see where the world began and the Finishing School series for a young adult read!
