 I just REALLY love this series. Maggie and George might be my favorite characters of this series so far. Grantham is a pure cinnamon roll and I love him so much 😭 

Obviously women supporting women is a major theme for the series, but I really enjoyed this version where the line between right and wrong was so blurred. It was the most divided we'd seen Athena's Retreat and it was a very interesting dynamic.

I'm also obsessed with best bro frenemies Grantham and Kneland. They were hysterical and I could read a whole series about them a la the Bromance Book Club.

Thanks to Netgalley & Berkley for the advanced e-book!
