This book had much more Charlotte than the previous book & it was better for it. This is exactly what I wanted the first book to be & I flew through it.
This was a pretty slow read for me until the last 10 pages, and then I instantly wanted to read the next book. I knew there was a point to all the duller stuff, and there was, but I still would have liked some more fun deductive details throughout and a little more liveliness.
Enjoyed the descriptions of food. :)
Rooting for Livy!
The whole Moriarty angle is only of moderate interest to me.
The brilliance of the writing and plot execution was amazing in this installment of the Lady Sherlock series. Honestly, I don't know how the author was going to continue with the Sherlockian mysteries but she outdid any expectations I undoubtedly built up after the first book.
The author entangles more of Charlotte's personal life with the case that encompasses the main plot of the book but in such a flawless fashion that I didn't anticipate all the entanglements that would soon unfold. This is my favorite type of book with my favorite type of character. An unpredictable book with a Sherlock archetype. I look forward to reading more in the series, as I was terribly sad when this ended.
