The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy Montague Siblings

"This action-driven adventure is a joy." - ALA Booklist (starred review)

"A beautifully brilliant story about feminism, female friendship, privilege, sexism in the 17th century, and doing all you can to fulfill your passion and dreams." - Buzzfeed

"A feminist feast that challenges societal norms and forgoes all romance, which is unconventional, albeit refreshing, in young adult literature." - BookPage

"[A] strong feminist credo." - The Horn Book

"The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy is fun while still being thoughtful, feminist, and an ode to female friendship." - Bustle

"A swashbuckling, fantastical coming-of-age adventure that quite simply swallowed me whole." - Audible Editor's Pick

"[Lee] develops a world rich in historical detail, crafts a plot wild with unexpected turns, and explores complex topics like colonization and identity. An empowering and energetic adventure that celebrates friendship between women." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"An incredible, must-have follow-up full of old characters and new, blood and guts, and a delightful barrage of sarcasm." - School Library Journal (starred review)

"An outrageously fun, witty, fascinating, and romantic adventure, starring a memorable trio I'd happily travel with for ages. Lee is a definite force in diverse historical YA." - Dahlia Adler, founder of LGBTQ Reads and author of Under the Lights

"The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue is a Grand Tour all its own. Hilarious and romantic, adventurous and scandalous, Monty's adventures are just as delightful as Monty himself. I adored this book!" - Rachel Hawkins, author of the Rebel Belle series

"Sweet, smart, and powerful, Gentleman's Guide tackles timely topics that will resonate profoundly with readers--all wrapped up in a truly epic road trip. Prepare to laugh, gasp, swoon, and cheer." - Claire Legrand, author of the Winterspell series

"A delightful romp of a road-trip through eighteenth century Europe, packed with witty dialog, razor-sharp pacing, and the perfect amount of swoon. You should abso-bloody-lutely read this book." - Erin Bowman, author of Vengeance Road

Mackenzi Lee (This Monstrous Thing) combines her knowledge of European history with a contemporary, comic sensibility to create an over-the-top romantic adventure complete with cliff-hanging chapter endings and sometimes outrageous narration. Monty is a licentious, flawed and engaging 18th-century hero. - Shelf Awareness (starred review)

"Monty is pitch-perfect as a yearning, self-destructive, oblivious jerk of a hero who inspires equal parts sympathy, frustration, and adoration from reader. A genre tribute, satire, and exemplar in one." - The Horn Book

"Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue is the queer teen historical you didn't know was missing from your life." - Teen Vogue ("Best Queer Books to Celebrate Pride 2017")

"A rollicking ride that also turns a keen eye to issues like class, racism, homosexuality, and identity." - Brightly

"Careening from fete to fiasco on a Grand Tour of 18th century Europe, THE GENTLEMEN'S GUIDE TO VICE AND VIRTUE is a dizzying, dazzling, and roguishly romantic romp. This book makes me want to unrequite my own love so I can requite him all over again." - Heidi Heilig, author of The Girl From Everywhere

"Don't read this book unless you like adventure, hijinks, and forbidden romance, and if you do, then read it twice." - Stacey Lee, author of The Secret of a Heart Note and Under a Painted Sky

PRAISE FOR THE GENTLEMAN'S GUIDE TO VICE AND VIRTUE: "Tongue-in-cheek, wildly entertaining, and anachronistic in only the most delightful ways, this is a gleeful romp through history. Monty is a hero worthy of Oscar Wilde." - Booklist (starred review)

"The book's exquisite, bygone meter and vernacular sit comfortably on a contemporary shelf. And the friction of racism, tyrannical entitled politicians, and misguided disapproval of homosexuality also have a relevance rooted in current culture's xeno- and homophobia. Austen, Wilde, and Indiana Jones converge in this deliciously anachronistic bonbon." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"This is a witty, romantic, and exceedingly smart look at discovering one's place in the world. A stunning powerhouse of a story for every collection." - School Library Journal (starred review)

"A gloriously swashbuckling affair." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
