3.0

This is a fairly generous 3⭐️ for me - Giles was darling and the ending was cute .. However. I found this installment less interesting than the first overall, saw nearly every twist or revelation coming a mile away, and the language was often too modern for the times, taking me out of the moment, as well as repetitive in the extreme. How many times can you say something as hokey and noticeable as “so-and-so wore an expression like butter wouldn’t melt in the mouth” (😵‍💫) in one book and have it not be annoying? (The answer is 1, but it appeared 4 times.) The author also beats the details of the main problem to death, much like the first book, which again = annoying. I won’t be finishing this series and this author’s style is really not for me. 

<i>Thanks to St. Martin’s Griffin and NetGalley for an eARC of this book.</i>
