I actually reread a book!

It is a rare thing :)

This was one of my earliest historical fictions that I read when I really started getting into my motherhood reading phase :)  This was also before I started book blogging so now I have the opportunity to actually write a review.

I love Elizabeth Camden!  She always has depth in her stories which I really appreciate.

In this one there is just a little bit {Too Much Passion} for me and her {Subject Matter} can get kind of heavy.  Also, the second time through I felt like character transformation was a little bit unrealistic but I still love the book :)

I can feel good about recommending this book...and there's a sequel :)

Could Recommend But Probably Won't

A respected author highly recommended this book so I gave it a try.

I must not be very sophisticated in my literary taste because I struggled to see the draw.

It was kind of interesting but didn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

There was a touch of fantasy/magic/otherworldliness spread throughout.

It just seemed a bit odd and I didn't love it.  I don't know how else to put it.

I could recommend it based on cleanliness but probably won't based on my lack of appreciation for the story.

I liked this installment in Eden's Victorian Mystery series.

  As with the first, there could have been more mystery for me but I will take what I can get :)

It was cute, the characters were fine...nothing too exciting but worth a read.

I did feel like there was just the slightest bit more passion than what I normally expect in her books but of course, that is still pretty tame.

I could easily recommend this book based on cleanliness/content.
