The Forgotten Room by Lauren Willig, Karen White, Beatriz Williams

2.0

---

I love Beatriz Williams and was genuinely intrigued by the concept of 3 fiction authors co-writing a book, but I must say...I was a bit disappointed in this one. Compared to the typical Williams characters, these ladies were dry and boring - I want bold, witty, and sassy, damnit! And unlike other reviewers, I felt like I could tell the book was written by three people - it felt a little uneven in spots. Overall it was too much of a straight romance novel for my taste - I wanted more intrigue, conflict, levity. More snappy dialogue and brilliant characters. This one really felt lacking; but it's a 2.5 because I flew through it and did have a desire to keep reading.
