Of Manners and Murder by Anastasia Hastings
4.0
I listened to this audiobook (courtesy of NetGalley and Dreamscape Media) and found it to be very well done. The audiobook is narrated by Mia Hutchinson-Shaw, who did a fantastic job. Just speaking about the quality of the audiobook, this is a great one.
As for the story itself, I found it to be entertaining and fun. The clues given along the way were paced appropriately, the characters were mostly enjoyable, and the red herrings helped throw you off at times. One thing I did not like was the feminist ideology throughout in a period were this was not normal. It did not stick to the historical aspect with the overt feminism. Overall, I consider this a cozy mystery that anyone can enjoy, especially if you need a palette cleanser or are in a reading rut.
CW: Death, murder, kidnapping (mild)
