3.5 upped to 4
It's always a hit or miss with this series as I'm not a fan of Stella as I find her a bit unrealistic if you think about Consuelo Vanderbilt or the heiress in Wharton's books.
It's a nice and entertaining fantasy and I enjoy this book as long as I do not compare them to historical characters.
This is complex and twisty mystery and it kept me guessing even if it took the backseat at time.
Many thanks to the publisher for this arc, all opinions are mine
