TITLE: The Secret History of the Pink Carnation
AUTHOR: Willig, Lauren
GENRE: Historical Fiction/Chick-lit
DATES READ: 9/16/2013 - 9/23/2013
MY RATING: 4/5
I found the first and third book within this author's series at the local library book sale, and I am crazy about them! I definitely have to pick up the second one as well. I loved the subject matter of this book; from the spies, to the romance, to the action and adventure. It was all thrilling! I can't wait to continue reading the series.
It's an effortless mixture of historical fiction, chick-lit, and a little mystery thrown in. There's swash-buckling, swooning, and snappy witticism. Very fresh. An excellent balance for a rainy day read.
I thoroughly enjoyed and cared about each of the characters. I could picture everything vividly, and there were many twists and turns along the way. Cheers to Lauren Willig for an enthralling tale.
