Sapphic murder mystery on a cruise ship
Maud Blyth, sister of Robin Blyth, gets sent on a cruise ship with one of the parts of the contract. With her employer murdered and the contract, whichever form it has now, stolen, she needs to find new allies to search for the murderer. Good thing that the ever so evasive Lord Hawthorn is also on board, as well as Violet Debenham. A stranger yet, but not for long, as Mauds attraction to her grows in more than one way. So, a murder mystery on a boat, with lots of magic and other shenanigans. Delightfully funny and well entwined with the overarching storyline. At the end of the first one, I was a bit skeptical at the idea to lay this story in other hands, but it fit surprisingly well and made sense after a few reveals. I even liked it more than volume one, which felt lacking in a way. Here, the story felt more round, maybe because it was also more separate, on the boat, and we didn't need more explanation about the worldbuilding and could totally focus on the story at hand. The couple was also great. I loved the characters, though their story is still incomplete. There was attraction, there was spice, and there were truths being shared, but the romance was just beginning. I hope we get more of them in the next one. It always feels a bit weird that the POV is changing. Well, what I probably liked most was their little team of detectives. Just them hanging out and planning. Especially Hawthorn reluctantly helping and being a total grump about it 😂 I was surprised how much I liked him here (his love interest also already appeared). I just love queer "friend" groups 🤭 Also hearing the story of the Forsythia club. This was also one of these books that make you go: women ❤️✨️ The only real thing to criticize is that these books take me forever to read, and I can't really say why. It's kinda exhausting to read, like you feel like you are making hardly any progress, but it's not like it is dragged out or boring, and I do enjoy the writing style. So I really don't know what's my problem 😂 Maybe I'm just imagining it, because I did really enjoy this one and will directly continue with the next 😌
