so-soGreat cover, but otherwise kind of disappointing. First book in series that's a spin-off of the Lady Hardcastle series, which I enjoy. Fun setting and characters, but the story really dragged. Not a lot of action or investigating or clues, which are all kind of important in a mystery!
Spent the weekend giving this old side table and jar a second life; now back to reading it is! 🔨🖌📖😁
pickI greatly enjoyed this and I cannot wait to read more from this series! I was ambivalent towards the Lady H series, so I wasn‘t sure how I‘d feel about this, but it was just so lovely and such an easy read. The mystery was fun, the characters engaging, and the settings sounded delightful. I do think a few things could be a better fleshed out, but I‘m hoping that will come with the other books.
This is my Amazon first pick for this month, and it's actually a book that I already wanted to read, instead of one I've never heard of. I really like this author's Lady Hardcastle series and I'm looking forward to this new mystery series.
