Ranking Jane Austen
Read more: Ranking Jane AustenSense and Sensibility: This one is a bit from bias because I liked the pictures best in the kids version I read before getting into the real version.

Ranking The Smythe-Smith Quartet
Read more: Ranking The Smythe-Smith QuartetAh yes, the Smythe-Smiths, the terribly talentless quartet that graces Bridgertons pages with its bad music.

Ranking the Bridgerton series
Read more: Ranking the Bridgerton seriesAfter finishing the first season of Bridgerton last year I delved right into the books which, let’s admit it, were better than the series.
