“A gleeful romp through history.”ALA Booklist
A young bisexual British lord embarks on an unforgettable Grand Tour of Europe with his best friend/secret crush. An 18th-century romantic adventure for the modern age written by This Monstrous Thing author Mackenzi Lee—Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda meets the 1700s.
Henry “Monty” Montague doesn’t care that his roguish passions are far from suitable for the gentleman he was born to be. But as Monty embarks on his grand tour of Europe, his quests for pleasure and vice are in danger of coming to an end. Not only does his father expect him to take over the family’s estate upon his return, but Monty is also nursing an impossible crush on his best friend and traveling companion, Percy.
So Monty vows to make this yearlong escapade one last hedonistic hurrah and flirt with Percy from Paris to Rome. But when one of Monty’s reckless decisions turns their trip abroad into a harrowing manhunt, it calls into question everything he knows, including his relationship with the boy he adores.
Witty, dazzling, and intriguing at every turn, The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue is an irresistible romp that explores the undeniably fine lines between friendship and love.
Don't miss Felicity's adventures in The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy, the highly anticipated sequel!

    🙈Boeien van begin tot eind

    I have no doubt it was a good book and I have plans to read it's sequel. Any historical LGBT romance is right up my street but this was a long book with a dense plot. I felt myself getting a bit tired of it half way through and felt like it was dragging.

    But it is beautifully wrote and if you are looking for a modern book write in an older style this is A+ and it has a range of vocab. It's not a bad book it just wasn't 100% for me. If your a fan of Austen I might recommend it to you!

    Love may be a grand thing, but goddamn if it doesn’t take up more than its fair share of space inside a man.

    though she also keeps sneaking up on my deaf side and scaring the shit out of me.

    a strange thing, to want to die. Stranger still when you don’t feel you deserve to get away so easily.
