Winter Sisters by Robin Oliveira

3.0

---

My sister-in-law loaned me this novel. I haven't read the first book in the series, but I don't think that detracted from reading this one. The examination of Albany's political machinations in the late 1870s was interesting, as were the different plot threads. I had the "mystery" figured out pretty quickly, though I kept reading to see how other characters would figure it out. I didn't love the writing on the sentence level--at times it felt over written, at other times, clumsy. The story, though, kept my interest. It made a good beach read, and it certainly riled me up about issues still concerning women.
