This is the most cinematic story of this series (so far). Not to say it couldn't be a great TV series, but THIS one was SO visual. I was watching it in my head...as I read and as Marie read. We also had the audiobook, when we were both tired, or eating meals.

Again, like the previous books, this story had a different protagonist, but a LOT of the previous characters populated the story, too...BUT more than anything, this was an outsider story looking in.

The idea of a Tufa going to NYC and writing a play/musical about a true event that happend at the Chapel of Ease. We want to see this play, part Hamilton, part Rent.

A lot of the plot devices were used in this story, as in previous ones, but to different effects.

We are LOVING this series immensely.
