false <![CDATA[The Season]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1216134649m/3751593.jpg 3751593 1 Seventeen-year-old Lady Alexandra Stafford doesn’t fit into the world of Regency London — she’s strong-willed, sharp-tongued, and she absolutely loathes dress fittings. Unfortunately, her mother has been waiting for years for Alex to be old enough to take part in the social whirlwind of a London Season so she can be married off to someone safe, respectable, wealthy, and almost certainly boring. But Alex is much more interested in adventure than romance. Between sumptuous balls, lavish dinner parties and country weekends, Alex, along with her two best friends, Ella and Vivi, manages to get entangled in her biggest scrape yet. When the Earl of Blackmoor is killed in a puzzling accident, Alex decides to help his son, the brooding and devilishly handsome Gavin, uncover the truth. It’s a mystery brimming with espionage, murder, and suspicion. As she and Gavin grow closer, will Alex’s heart be stolen in the process? Romance and danger fill the air, as this year’s Season begins! 3795453 book 1 3 2009 The Season total:566|5:224|4:189|3:108|2:33|1:12| 566 2278 1410 222 5 10 false true Sun Jan 11 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 09 22:21:35 -0800 2009 Tue Sep 29 15:02:34 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 11 false false Sat Feb 14 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Oct 30 16:11:34 -0700 2008 Mon Feb 23 03:48:12 -0800 2009

Where should I start? With the fact that the characters sound nothing like they belong in the early 1800s? Or with the fact that the author uses every GD cliche in the book? Sometimes twice in the same chapter, within a page or two of each other.
