a good read. i think mrs. goodman has a way about writing that sucks you in, but i found myself weary of her work after a few books and im not sure that is on account of me getting bored with her style (i did exclusively read three of her books within days of each other) or maybe it's something else in her writing that requires a break.


i wished the book had ended differently, or at least a second books made (it was nicely unfolded and wrapped up, however i think there was potential for a bit more- although any detail on that would spoil the ending). i loved the characters (as i have with all her characters), that familiar writing that slides off the page, the lovely scenery that she explicitly describes and of course the overlay of poetic and artistic charm.
