Bloodstains with Bronte: A Crime with the Classics Mystery by Katherine Bolger Hyde
3.0
I was really excited about this book, and even more pumped to learn it was part of a series. This is a fun mystery that includes references to classics. At the beginning of each chapter is a quote from a classic piece of literature. I really enjoyed this and liked finding the connection between that literature and the current chapter.
There is a lot going on in the book, as the characters work through murder charges, a murder mystery dinner, and romantic emotions. I thought that was all good fun. The book is a bit dark, like the gothic writing style of the Brontes, which is also a nice nod to the classics.
Overall, I didn't find the characters very likable or relatable, but this is a fun read for a quick fall/winter day.
