35559 ooooh...... I dunno. I'd be totes fine with any of the Brontes' works being used, but I think this is anonymous publication rather than pseudonymous publication.

35559 is this a white cover?
The Personal Librarian by Marie Benedict

I think it is, an off-white, which is still white, right?


ETA: and if it is right, then it can probably also work for "relationship under false pretences" - Belle is in an employment relationship based on a false pretence that she is white, not Black

35559 I'm stalling so hard on one of my books. it's off the TBR, and I suspect that if I can get to 20% it'll grab me, but so far.... nope.

so I'm going to hold off on picking up another book for a bit, whilst I grit my teeth and plow on through!

35559 found one "soul-sucking" in my kindle books - in Hana Khan Carries On by Uzma Jalaluddin which is very good, but I read recently, so not ready for a reread


ETA: might be worth asking other teams what they've used?
