DNF at 30%.

The synopsis caught my eye -- a romance about a Jewish woman in 1830s London looking for a suitable husband sounded promising, but sadly, the story itself just wasn't for me. The historical fiction elements were very interesting, and if the book's focus truly had been on the Jewish community's struggle for security and acceptance in London society at that time, it probably would have worked for me. There were just too many scenes about racing pulses, forbidden touches, etc -- basically, the romance tropes overwhelmed the good stuff, and I could not keep going.
