The Ugly Duchess - Cinta untuk Sang Duchess

I'm curious whether the author drew from specific historical figures or events, or if it was more of a creative impulse to blend fairy tales with Regency romance.

The book explores societal standards of beauty but also challenges them, which made me think about how much our perceptions are shaped by culture.

The humor really made the characters’ journey enjoyable, but I wondered whether that was a conscious choice to keep the tone light amidst the social critique.
