4.0

I should have re-read the first two books before starting this one - I had to go back to the last few chapters of book 2.  Be sure you’re clear on who’s dead and who’s alive, and do read the dramatis personae at the beginning.  

The bulk of the “story” happens inside the characters’ heads - as others have said, there’s very little plot.   But I do love her writing; this is a series I could see picking up and re-reading all in a row at some point, and maybe I’d enjoy it more.
