It's okay. There's just nothing special about it. I wish the book would have had a bit more depth to it; it was really predictable.

Originally published in 1988, I first read Sorcery and Cecelia after its re-release in 2004. Happily, that meant I didn't have quite as long a wait for a sequel as Kate and Cecy's original fans. Released in 2006, The Grand Tour or The Purloined Coronation Regalia picks up shortly after the end of Sorcery and Cecelia with both cousins newly married and beginning their honeymoons with an English tradition known aptly as the grand tour during which they plan to travel through the great cities of Europe. Like its prequel, this novel also has an extended title to offer further enlightenment as to what the story will actually relate. That title is: Being a Revelation of Matters of High Confidentiality and Greatest Importance, Including Extracts from the Intimate Diary of a Noblewoman and the Sworn Testimony of a Lady of Quality. While the plot of this novel does stand alone, I don't recommend reading this book before the first in the series because it just isn't as fun that way. Part of the great thing about these books is watching the girls grow and tracing the relationships between the characters--things that are harder to do without reading the books in order. (That said, a quick recap: The happily married couples are Kate and Thomas Schofield, Cecy and James Tarleton. My favorite couple is Cecelia and James. Thomas is a wizard, and Cecy is just realizing that she also has a magical aptitude. These novels are written with a variation of the Letter Game. Patricia C. Wrede is Cecelia and Caroline Stevermer is Kate.) Instead of being written in alternating letters, this volume alternates between excerpts from Cecelia's deposition to the Joint Representatives of the British Ministry of Magic, the War Office, and the Foreign office; and excerpts from Kate's . Joining the couples on part of their wedding(s) journey is Lady Sylvia, another wizard of note in England (and Thomas' mother). Expecting a leisurely honeymoon, and the chance to purchase proper bride clothes and secure the services of maids, both Cecelia and Kate are dismayed when their quiet grand tour turns into nothing less than a race to prevent an international conspiracy of Napoleanic proportions. As the couples tour Europe's great antiquities--and meet their fair share of unique tourists--the young women, and their husbands, begin to piece together a plot the likes of which no one could have previously imagined. Like Sorcery and Cecelia this novel once again serves as a lovely homage to Jane Austen. The pacing and tone of The Grand Tour is again reminiscent of Austen's work (or George Eliot's for that matter). Nonetheless, some of the plot did seem more difficult to follow than, say, the first book in this series though the problem was remedied with back-reading. I love these characters unconditionally, in a way I rarely love book characters. Artless, charming, and profoundly entertaining, both Cecelia and Kate are first-rate characters in a first-rate fantasy series.

Oh goodness, I want more books like this one. Sebastian's Wolves has so much of what I look for in an m/m: high emotions, steamy sex scenes, lovable characters, and that something extra that just grabs you and holds on. Sebastian had me from the first page with his capacity to love. I was crying (not just your watery eyes or a stray tear!) crying only ten pages in. Usually when something of great impact early in a book it's easy to shrug off, but I was fully invested as if I'd known these characters for at least 100 pages, rather than 10. A discussion the other day brought up how satisfying it was to see both 'wicked' and 'sweet' in the book we were talking about. That's the best way to describe the love (yes, and the sex!) in Sebastian's Wolves: wicked and sweet, and oh-so-satisfying. If I had one setback, it would be how events and emotions progressed in the second half of the book. (view spoiler) A mating bond between wolves happens instantaneously, yes, but I think the story would have worked just as well if the "L" word had waited. (But I could also see that as Sebastian's nature to hold nothing back when it comes to love.) As for the events, I got a little confused as to time progression and what the focus of the story was. Maybe if the main conflict were tied in more throughout it would've helped solidify the story in my mind. But overall, it's a wonderful read that I'd recommend to those who like m/m, shifters, 'wicked and sweet,' and heartwarming supporting characters. I'd recommend a box of tissues, though! And since Sebastian is so wonderful on the cover, I found a visual reference for my idea of the other character for those of you interested…(view spoiler)

Julia Glass writes so well, and builds lovely webs among her characters. I really enjoyed this novel, as much as Three Junes.

The sense that the POV was messy put me off a bit. A clearer POV would have improved it.

wanted to look at this because had seen a ballet inspired by it. was a bit tedious, not interested enough in Jarman's p-o-v I guess, but I liked that it was a personal collection of observations, quotations and information.

Looks like I can take this off my Nook wish list since I just won it through FirstReads. I've been hearing about this on a few of the book podcasts I listen to and it's supposed to be excellent.
