The Lace Reader by Brunonia Barry

2.0

This was better than OK, but I can't quite commit to liking it. After an irresistible opening paragraph, the first two-thirds of the book were more or less involving, but too much was thrown into the last. This is one of a growing number of books that loses my good opinion as I near the climax. Too bad.

audiobook note: Steady, well-nuanced narration by Alyssa Bresnahan.
