The Gentleman’s Guide To Vice and Virtue by Mackenzie Lee, 513
pages
“A hilarious
and swashbuckling stand-alone teen historical fiction novel, named one of
summer's 20 must-read books by Entertainment Weekly! 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.” This book was
incredible! I will recommend it to any
teen that enjoys reading, especially humor and historical fiction.
