It is a truth universally acknowledged that girls just wanna have fun
'If Bridgerton and Fleabag had a book baby, it would be Reputation. I inhaled it in one sitting' Sarra Manning
'I had so much fun reading Reputation. It's a total blast' Louise O'Neill
A classic romcom with a Regency-era twist, for fans of Mean Girls and Bridgerton.
Abandoned by her parents in favour of a sea view, middle class Georgiana Ellers has moved to a new town to live with her dreary aunt and uncle. At a particularly dull dinner party, she meets the enigmatic Frances Campbell, a wealthy socialite and enchanting member of the in-crowd.
Through Frances and her friends, Georgiana is introduced to a new world of wild parties, drunken debauchery, mysterious young men with strangely alluring hands, and the sparkling upper echelons of Regency society.
But high society isn't all it's cracked up to be, and the price of entry might be more than Georgiana is willing to pay . . .
Full of lavish parties, handsome men on horseback and laugh-out-loud humour, this is the summer read everyone's talking about.
A spirited Regency romcom, which tears up the Regency romcom rulebook! If Bridgerton and Fleabag had a book baby, it would be Reputation. I inhaled it in one sitting * Sarra Manning *
I thoroughly enjoyed Reputation. I had so much fun reading it. It's a total blast * Louise O'Neill *
I absolutely loved Reputation. It's razor sharp, funny and I was totally hooked from the start. Definitely one for you if you screamed at the trailer for the Gossip Girl reboot * Laura Kay *
A fierce, fresh, feminist Regency romcom that is brilliant on friendship and fitting in. It is funny, surprising and deliciously romantic, and the dialogue truly shimmers * Cressida McLaughlin *
The perfect blend of period drama decadence with Mean Girls drama that had me compulsively reading late into the night. Lex's updating of Regency life for the twenty-first century reader is beyond entertaining. Reputation is everything I didn't know I wanted from a book; gossip, bonnets, breeches, and high debauchery with a feminist swing * Abigail Mann *
Reputation is hilarious and compelling, with a truly fresh take on Regency romance. The effervescent wit and cleverness had me laughing aloud, and the heroine's journey really touched my heart. If you're looking for something with the spirit of Jane Austen and the style of modern feminism, this is the book for you! * India Holton, author of THE WISTERIA SOCIETY OF LADY SCOUNDRELS *
Think of Bridgerton crossed with Sex Education and you have Reputation by Lex Croucher. Teenage Georgiana is bored with her proper genteel life, until she befriends the rich, charismatic, Frances Campbell who leads her down a path of drinking, flirting and parties - reminding us that the process of coming of age really hasn't changed for centuries. * Good Housekeeping *
There's nothing prim or proper about Lex Croucher's dazzling debut novel, Reputation, which is so boldly, audaciously modern in its portrayal of 19th-century mean-girl culture that I kept waiting for someone to inform the heroine that on Wednesdays, they wear pink. * Book Pages *
