Book three of the Daughters of Mannerling and again a book that was quite dull, this series that I thought would show wit and charm has been in turns charmless and witless and altogether uninvolving.
I tried it again thinking I must be missing something after seeing a lot of positive reviews - not sure what it is but I am not seeing it.

A brief return to M C Beaton historicals to try and clear the kindle backlog, but this one was quite predictable and I wasn't very keen on many of the characters - although the governess' background was intriguing.
