A review by bookish_eclecticism
The Architect of Song by A.G. Howard

3.0

This has some issues. The historical factor feels a little generic, and, while I love the inclusion of Roma/Romani/etc. culture, I really wish authors would stop using the word "g*psy." It is a racial slur, not an acceptable synonym for Roma/Romani/etc. It annoys me that a lot of people still don't get it. *sigh*

Anyway, I was set to give this 2 ⭐'s and be done with it. I even considered giving less and not continuing the series (because of the issues and the fact that historical isn't my favorite thing), but the twists and turns, along with my enjoying the romance/romantic interest raised it to 3 ⭐'s.
