As someone who has not yet read Jane Austen’s legendary novels (I know a book lover’s crime!!), I came into this with minimal past knowledge or expectations of relevance or accuracy related to Austen’s work.
I was quickly enthralled in the storyline however, and became very fond of our main mystery sleuths. I found the ending not too obvious, but not too far fetched. Overall a clever cozy mystery that fans of Bridgerton would likely enjoy!
I enjoyed this novel even more than the first, which is often a difficult accomplishment in sequels. While many main characters remained the same, the setting and mystery had a fresh sense of curiosity.
Increased romantic element in this novel was a nice addition in my opinion!
Wonderfully witty writing, absolutely relatable for any daydreamers and empaths who have that one situationship they can never get out of their minds.
Quick read, hard to put down!
I enjoyed this third novel almost as much as the first, but not quite as much as the second.
The newer characters lacked some interest, and I found myself more intrigued often by the romantic spark between the two main sleuths than the mystery itself!
