The Judas Kiss
The Judas Kiss
By Victoria Holt
What is this??? I’m going to spoil the book. One of Victoria Holt’s funny, heroic, impressive characters has sex outside of marriage? What is the world coming to! And with a guy whose last name she doesn’t even know (or real name, although she doesn’t know that). And not just once. And this even after she finds out he’s engaged to her friend! I’m disappointed, I’ve always liked that Victoria Holt’s heroines were better than that, they had a higher morality and decency than the crappy novels that are churned out today. It was Victoria Holt, though, so it was well-written and entertaining. And I learned new things, as always, with her journeys though different countries. This time was Germany, I believe. (Yeah, I was a little preoccupied with the sex thing, outrageous!) Taking out that stuff would have raised this score: 6/10
