My Fine Fellow Jennieke Cohen
What’s better than a gender-bent take on My Fair Lady? Nothing, you say? Correct! We love this book set in 1830s England about two social elites, Helena and Penelope, and their quest to transform Elijah Little from street vendor to gentleman chef. Mayhem and romance abound!
