Well, this one was disappointing, to be honest. I beyond adored the first two books in the series, this one just didn’t hit the same, partially cause I didn’t like Lillias or Hugh. I was going to DNF and just skim for the Palace bits, but after a little bit of that, the plot picked up, so I finished after all. I still love JAL’s writing, but I’ll probably take a break before diving into anymore. Unless Dot gets the book she deserves, I’m not sure I need to read about more random tenants.

The audio honestly didn’t do it any favors. Justine Eyre is a fine narrator, not my favorite but generally good, but her dudes are usually her weak spot, and her American accent didn’t help in that regard.
