Adding Blythe's pov for select chapters was a wonderful choice, because hearing about someone else's impressions of Signa was insightful to the world Grace created. I do not typically read historical romance, regency or not, with the courting of young women during their seasons, tea parties, croquet matches, and fox hunts, but throw in supernatural elements like Signa who reaps lives, Death himself, and now Fate, too? I'm hooked. Book 3 cannot come out soon enough to shine a light on the new relationships. Signa has found family and a home, and Blythe has a life to fight for with no one to hold her back. Wisteria is bound to be full of adventures, snark and sass, and mystical happenings, and romance. 

The B&N edition having a chapter after the full novel from Death's pov is a perfect touch to the whole reading experience.

I had a wonderful time reading this book. I think it was a good sequel -- I think it carried on the overall storyline and plot while still being its own book.

I adored the characters. It was nice seeing more of Blythe, and Signa was good. I liked Death, and I had a good time reading about Fate. I liked the relationships -- Signa and Blythe, Signa and Death, and Blythe and Fate. I loved the the snark and bantering between Blythe and Fate.  The writing was good, and the pacing varied a little, but I enjoyed it overall.

I lovedddd this book and thought it was a great sequel to Belladonna and in my personal opinion, even better than the first book 🤭 I enjoyed the murder mystery aspect and how several theories as the story progressed and the ones I got right have me very excited for the next installment of the series bc I cannot wait to see what the author has in store for the characters especially
Blythe and Fate
!! Wisteria is gonna be a new anticipated read this year and August needs to come ASAP!

“Foxglove” draggggged! It wasn’t until the last three or so hours of the audiobook that things started picking up and getting interesting. Definitely suffers from Second Book Syndrome—just a way to push the plot from Book 1 to Book 3 for the conclusion.

While I could guess where the story was going to end I very much enjoyed the journey there. I can’t wait to learn more about Life Death and Fate and how Signa fits in with all of that. Blythe gets some POVs too and I enjoyed them

I would give this 10 stars if I could! Big loves. I didn’t think this would be better than the first book, Belladonna, but it absolutely positively was!! 10/10

OMG I LOVE LOVE LOVE the characters, the book, the story line EVERY.THING. Like DEATH AND SIGNA sdfajfenfkfnafn I LOVE THEM SO MUCH and they make me so happy and they're so happy!! Also I somehow did NOT think of the ending although it was low key obvious but I was so devastated by Death and Signa that I did not notice! Idk if it was shown in the tapestries but also they already had the connection at the statue like OMG it was so obvious but I was too into it to tell. I literally CAN'T WAIT for Wisteria to come out like AHHHHHH! Fate was kind of a jerk in here but I guess we'll see what happens to him in the next book :) I really liked how the story played out in the end, like how everything unfolded, the murderer was quite unexpected and the reason behind it, I was sad for what happened and also the clues we saw earlier all made sense at the end. I was so immersed into the story and the characters and I'm glad that Blythe and Signa made it through to the end :) I really liked seeing the ghosts in Foxglove and their different stories I think they, especially Amira, helped Signa a lot with her loneliness when she couldn't see Death.
