The Gentleman's Guide to Getting Lucky

By: Mackenzi Lee

Narrated by: Christian Coulson

“The queer teen historical you didn’t know was missing from your life.” — Teen Vogue, on The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue

In this funny and frothy novella that picks up where the New York Times bestselling The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue leaves off, freshly minted couple Monty and Percy fumble through their first time together.

Monty’s epic grand tour may be over, but now that he and Percy are finally a couple, he realizes there is something more nerve-wracking than being chased across Europe: getting together with the person you love.

Will the romantic allure of Santorini make his first time with Percy magical, or will all the anticipation and build-up completely spoil the mood?

So much love for Monty and Percy!

I would seriously listen to anything having to do with Monty and Percy, the length of the story would make no difference, I love them that much! This was short but oh so sweet! It left me wanting more, more, more- I'm pretty sure I'd think that no matter what. They are just the cutest boys and I adore them! This story had me laughing out loud, but then getting all up in my feels a minute later. Monty was so unsure of himself, it was adorable and frustrating all at once.
Christian Coulson narration is perfection. I'm pretty sure I said that when I reviewed TGGtV&V, but it's true. He does such a fantastic job bringing Monty, and Percy, and all the other characters, to life. It's such a wonderful experience listening to his performance.

so sweet

These two are a beautiful disaster and this is a great little addition to their story. I appreciate that it's not all perfect, they aren't magically perfect together and that the story does a great job showing relationships take work and communication and understanding.

Cute, but short

I have to be honest, I somehow missed this was a novella before I bought it... Oops
It is a cute story, and a fun 2 hour listen... But is it $14 worth of cute? Not sure it's worth that much over another regular length novel.

Fabulous! The Narrator is Fantastic

So incredibly cute. If you loved The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue (especially if you enjoyed the audio version performed by the wonderful Christian Coulson) then you'll want to listen to this one.

Fun

A fun edition to the series. You're going to be screeching with laughter by the end. It was sweet. Percy is boyfriend goals. There's not much to this story. It's not complicated.

My favorite line was, "where you start isn't where you have to end". Which is about Monty trying to be a better person.

I enjoyed diving back into the world of these characters. I wish the book had been longer.
