A review by hannahjoy91
Shadows of Swanford Abbey by Julie Klassen
4.0
Never have I ever devoured a 400-some page book this fast! So I think that should give some indication as to how much I enjoyed this book.
To summarise: Agatha Christie meets Jane Austen is this wonderfully delicious mystery with a side of sweet romance. When a famous author is murdered at the Swanford Abbey Hotel, all of the guests are thrown into suspicion as one-by-one their own secrets are revealed and Frederick & Rebecca work to find out who the killer is.
I loved the subtle romance going on on the side. Rebecca & Frederick were so sweet!
"Rebecca breathed him in deeply, wanting to slow down this moment, press it between the pages of her favourite book..."
If you like:
- estranged childhood friends to lovers/second chance romance
- unrequited love
- old houses full of secrets
- Gothic vibes
- Jane Austen, Agatha Christie or Jane Eyre
- family drama
...I'd recommend you give this book a try!
