The Reluctant Heiress by Eva Ibbotson

3.0

Beautifully written with beautiful characters, but became very confusing at times. Someone not well versed in the culture of the time period (like myself) might find some parts a bit hard to follow. Also the amount of miscommunication among the characters just to create a longer story oftentimes set my teeth on edge.

But the characters were a saving grace to the story, as well as the wonderful descriptions of scenery that abound through the pages.
