Summary: from Good Reads

Feelings:
I liked this book but not as much as the first in the series. I thought I was going to want to read the books one after the other but after finishing this book I didn't really feel the need to pick up the next one right then. Maybe it has more to do with how busy I am but I thought I would have wanted to read the next one a lot more than I did.
This book focused more on Penelope and the maid Caroline from the first book. I didn't really enjoy Caroline as a character. That is why I didn't enjoy this book as much as the previous one. I thought that Elizabeth and Diana were stronger characters and I thought more of the story could have focused on them.
Again, we started where we ended and I thought that was a nice touch.
I will be reading the third novel it just isn't as high on my list as I thought it was.
