This book is slow, dull, and has an ending which makes you wonder what was the point of the book. I usually like Phillipa Gregory, but this whole series has been dire. Unnecessary dialogue, very short scenes in different places, and a cliffhanger-type ending make this book both incredibly dull to read and unsatisfying to finish.
I’ve given 1.5 stars because I did persevere through it, and some of the subplots were ok.
Just as a warning for this whole series, it features two lesbian relationships which are both portrayed as only occurring in order to manipulate others, so take the ‘LGBT’ tags with a pinch of salt.
