I loved how different A Tale of Two Centuries felt from My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century. Alessandra has a very unique voice. She speaks extremely proper, so it felt like reading Historical Fiction, which I adored. But as time moves on, she adapts her language to fit into modern times. She goes from Miss Prim and Proper, who doesn't use contractions, show her elbows, or stand up for herself to Miss Independent! While the first book was more focused on a personal journey, this one is more about the romance. Less does do a lot of growing, but a lot of her time in the future revolves around her budding relationship with Austin. I liked them very much!
Just like the first book, A Tale of Two Centuries gets a bit cheesy at the end, but it's so cute! I loved watching Less change into the young woman she wished to be in her own time, but couldn't. I loved the romance, and how Austin is the one responsible for coaxing her out of her shell. And I adored Cat's background plot, which is another romance and her worrying about her mother's next scandal. Now, I must immediately move onto My Not So Super Sweet Life!
