A review by madeline
To Swoon and to Spar by Martha Waters

4.0

Martha Waters: there's a fake haunting in this book
Me: give it to me immediately.

Each installment in this series brings me literally so much delight, including this one. It's full of Martha's trademark wit, humor, and tenderness - these two characters are so careful and kind to one another once they figure each other out, and it's such a joy to watch them work through what it means to be married to one another. And this book is <i>funny</i>, too. I was cackling the whole time! Martha's voice is so clearly her own, and each book is a more entertaining farce than the last one.

My only wish for this book would be that these two got their acts together a little earlier: Martha writes more slow-burn, low-steam romances, but I wouldn't have minded another kiss or two earlier. Still, I loved this book from start to finish, and I am truly salivating at the thought of FINALLY (finally, finally) seeing West and Sophie get their happy ending.

Thank you to Atria and Edelweiss for the ARC!
