pickI love that most chapters begin with a pertinent epigraph from Jane Austin‘s Pride & Prejudice!
Rosalyn Thorne,a “most useful woman”of discretion & societal connections,is hired by Bethany Douglas,an old school friend,ostensively to find her stolen pearl necklace.Bethany‘s multi-generational family,who reside with her, harbor many secrets.Rosalind,with the help of Dec. Adam, has to wade through questions of fraud, blackmail, forgery,& murder.
I am so enjoying this audiobook, a first in a series of mystery novels inspired by Jane Austen. Each chapter begins with a quote from Pride and Prejudice which suggests just what unfolds. #serieslove2025 #jumpstart2025 #Read2025

Have you read this book? And look at that gorgeous cover.
Begins with an excerpt from a murder trial then moved to alternating chapters and told of the life of high society and how they adapted social protocol to whatever they wanted.
Beautifully written as all of Ms. Williams‘ books even though it took me a while to get connected.
Patterned after an opera titled Der Rosenkavalie.

A CERTAIN AGE began with an excerpt from a murder trial then moved to alternating chapters and told of the life of high society and how they adapted social protocol to whatever they wanted.
Beautifully written as all of Ms. Williams‘ books even though it took me a while to get connected, but it was still enjoyable.

"Hello Sunshine” normally meant someone was leaving a compliment on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram.
The day of Sunshine Stephens‘ 35th birthday didn't bode well for the “hello sunshine” greeting.
I enjoyed it and the wisdom of life decisions which was a major theme.

so-soThe last two books I've read I haven't really liked, and yet I've flown through them. Not sure how to reconcile that, but I'm hoping I'll read something that I really enjoy, soon.
I agree! Too many books out there…
Fav quote of the book: "Being in love is a condition, isn't it? It's like being depressed or being in a cult. You're basically underwater--people can talk to you about life on dry land, but it doesn't really mean anything."
