The Taming of Annabelle by M.C. Beaton

2.0

Review - I felt that Annabelle came across as more 3D than Minerva did. I felt I could connect to her more, even though we're not really alike at all. In Minerva I had felt that Minerva and Sylvester hated each other from the beginning so I struggled to understand how that so quickly translated into love, but Annabelle and Peter were attracted to each other from the start so I found that relationship easier to understand. Being infatuated with her sister's fiance was another thing which seemed to make Annabelle more human than her sister. I just felt able to connect to the characters. I preferred The Taming of Annabelle to its predecessor, Minerva. I really liked the storyline of this one, as Annabelle was a lot more flawed. The dysfunctional family dynamic is also interesting to read about.
