houxli 's review for:

A Restless Truth by Freya Marske
3.0
lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I wasn’t charmed. Painfully boring.
But Violet and Maud are fleshed out characters, better than the first book’s couple.
The Story of the Forsythia Club was the biggest waste of time. Nothing is learned that hasn’t already been explained.
The prose is still filled with tortured metaphors. Everything else I’m chalking up as “not bad, just not to my taste.”
