Book 3 in the Laetitia Rodd series... When googling for info on another one, I learnt that the author has passed away last year. How tragic, and how sad that there'll be no more Laetitia Rodd mysteries. I greatly enjoyed book 1 and 2.

Cosy (?) regency era mystery, let's go! I've been keen on reading this for a while, one reason being that it's a series of 15 (fifteen!) books, and I just love reading historical mysteries, so the more of it, the better.
Just days before a massive exhibition opens at the popular New York Museum of Natural …

Not even 100 pages in and the characters are annoying me so much that I don't really want to read on... I don't care what happens to them. I also do not particularly enjoy the writing style, so I guess this book is not for me.

This goes to the DNF pile for now, not because it's bad - I actually like it so far and even recently bought book 2 - but it's one of those books you need to be in the right mood & mindset for, and well, I'm currently not. It's slow and meandering, with lots of mythology and stories, very interesting, but not what I want or need right now.

It's not bad, but it's slow and kinda directionless, somehow I don't have the patience right now to read on... So DNF at page 165, but maybe I'll continue to read it some day.
