Think of England by KJ Charles

Think of England

3/5. Historical M/M. Disabled former military officer crosses paths with Jewish poet and spy at a house party where they are both investigating their hosts.

This has a lot of things I like – class differences that make things genuinely difficult, a person coming to terms with their queerness in a way that makes a lot of historical sense. But I was only ever lukewarm to this book because it features a dubcon scenario of the must-have-sex-now-we-are-being-watched variety, which I get is some people's jam, but is my anti-jam.
