Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted at Breaking the Spine. The purpose is to spotlight upcoming releases that we are excited for.
Miss Butterworth and the Mad Baron was released in May 2022 in America, but in Australia, we have had to wait until August to get out hands on a copy … and what a long wait it has been so far. Having loved the Bridgerton series, and as a mad historical romance reader, I am so on board for this upcoming release from Julie Quinn. Not only is it a new story, that is hinted at in others books, BUT it’s a historical romance graphic novel and I am so here for it!
Expected Publication: 3rd August 2022
Published by: Harper Collins US
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn, comes her first playfully illustrated graphic novel. Based on story snippets that are peppered throughout a number of her novels and enjoyed by her characters who read them, this is that tale in its entirety -an irresistible treat for her fans who are in the know and pure entertainment for all others.
First introduced in It’s in His Kiss, Miss Butterworth and the Mad Baron is a madcap story told in bits and read by the characters within several Julia Quinn novels. Now Julia Quinn gives us Miss Butterworth’s whole story – in a format her devoted fans will want to pick up.
The graphic novel tells the outrageous story of Miss Butterworth, from her early days born during a smallpox epidemic, through her trials living under her cruel aunt’s thumb, until she meets the mad Baron and eventually falls in love.
Fans have clamored for Julia Quinn to write this book, and finally, this graphic novel format allows her to vividly and visually bring the story to life for her devoted fans – and any other readers who want a romp of a love story – in a purely entertaining way!
