A Dowry of Snails and Mud by Brittany Tucker – Review by Jenni Bishop

A Dowry of Snails and Mud by Brittany Tucker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Dowry of Snails and Mud is a YA enemies to lovers medieval Rom-Com. This is Brittany’s debut novel which is a little crazy, a lot quirky and the humour had me laughing out loud at times.
At a stalemate over money the Mayor and King decide an arranged marriage will solve their problems. The married couple are to con the other to get the money.
This historical romance stars sassy 16-year-old, Rhia who soon finds herself in an arranged marriage to help the town. Her marriage to her sick and useless husband is to ensure the greedy King gets what he wants from the town. Along the way Rhia finds that there is more to her husband and they find that working together to break down stereo typical thinking between classes that there is a better way for all.
Brittany’s writing makes the story flow easily and the adventure fun. There are characters that you will like and others not so much like the sourpuss Winnie.
If you love YA rom coms then you will love A Dowry of Snails and Mud.
