Interesting enough, but I was expecting better. Would have preferred if the entire book had been Adelaide's story, instead of switching to her niece 60% through. No real resolutions, the family never finds out that Adelaide's wastrel husband died a couple of years after they were married or that Gilbert is not him and he and Addy aren't married. The bit with Dodo just deciding that she isn't really in love with Richard after all was just odd.
