![]() ![]() ![]() They have moved on to live their lives, even though deep down, they hoped for better. I liked the fact that although both Anna and Edward have had some very tragic, lonely times in their lives, neither of them are particularly whiny about it. I prefer reading about the misfits, the 'ugly ducklings' and 'raven princes'. Neither is especially wonderful to the world-except for me. Neither are shining diamonds of the ton (who usually bore me to tears anyway). This lovely story took what could have been dark and melancholy subject matter, and made something upbeat and whimsical, yet no less moving.Īnna and Edward are characters that get shoved into closets and overlooked when it comes to romance novels. The Raven Prince was a sweet, sensual, delectable book that I've had sitting on my tbr pile for years now! In a way, I don't regret that, because I read it at the right time. ![]()

Much of the book references parts of “Broad City” that some might not fully understand unless they’ve seen the show. If you’ve fallen victim to the seasonal mood-shift, it’s nice to read about someone, especially in the public eye, that also struggles with heartbreak, loss and depression. ![]() ![]() Jacobson discusses her sexuality, her regrets about coming to terms with her sexuality and her first serious relationship.įor me, this book was everything that I needed. During each stop, she experiences anxieties that many of us face regularly: insomnia, restlessness and mental health issues. The book was written after Jacobson took a three-week road trip across the United States. The show is a guilty pleasure for my friends and I, as their quirkiness and sense of humor are some things that we all find pieces of ourselves in. Jacobson is one half of the “Broad City” duo, a show on Comedy Central that focuses on her and her best friend, played by actress Ilana Glaser, and their adventures through New York City. After spending the day in class and then returning home after a long work shift last week, I was ecstatic to see a large envelope on my counter addressed to me when I walked into my apartment, and even more excited to see that Abbi Jacobson’s new book, “I Might Regret This,” was sitting inside the wrapping. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 3 (Hardback) and many other great Smart Home devices available for the lowest. ![]() 3 (19-20) The Incredible Hulk Epic Collection: Future Imperfect (20).
