A review by beauty_and_the_rose
The Ladies of Ivy Cottage by Julie Klassen

3.0

I liked this one much more than the first. I loved the characters, the romance, and the mystery. My main issue was that sometimes the author beat into your head the meaning instead of just insinuating and letting you mind wander. I wanted to wonder about some of the relationships but often times felt i was being told, especially in the beginning. Midway through the book that stops completely, if the first half of the book had been as great as the second half i would have given it four stars.

Still this is an excellent read for anyone who loves books from the regency era, with lots of romance and a little mystery :)
