Silent in the Grave by Deanna Raybourn
4.0

I was in a month long reading-slump when I read this, and was just looking for something quick, easy and fun, and let me just say this book delivered. It was fluffy and more than a bit ridiculous, but exactly what I needed. There was a nice amount of intrigue, a slow burning and slightly angsty romance, and some fun characters. Lady Julia Grey was fun, stubborn and strong-willed without being (in my opinion) too annoying, and she was by no means a shrinking violet.
It’s by no means great literature, but if you’re in the mood for it (as I was) it’s really very enjoyable (and also a pretty quick read).
I read the first three books of the series in quick succession, and I still think this one had the best reveal to the mystery of the three.
