i think this book is wonderfully written, rich of details and with an interesting historical background.
Unfortunately I couldn't relate to the characters and I didn't enjoy the book.
I think it's a good book but not my cup of tea.

Quite an interesting and entertaining book, well written and with an engaging plot.
I liked the cast of characters and world building for the paranormal side.
I felt it was a bit lacking in the descriptions of New Orleans and the music side.
