About Shades of Milk and Honey by Mary Robinette Kowal

In the society of Shades of Milk and Honey, the manipulation of glamour is considered an essential skill for ladies of quality. Jane’s talent is remarkable, though her sister Melody is the fairer of the two—and both sisters attract the attention of eligible men.

When Jane suspects that one of Melody’s suitors means to exploit her for her dowry, she pushes her glamour to the limits of what her body can withstand. Her attempt to intervene brings unexpected consequences, including a love story of her own. This fantasy will suit readers drawn to courtship, family relationships, and a world where a woman’s artistic skill can shape how she navigates society.
