This was a reread, and my enjoyment only improved from my first read! The first half of this series-start is very character-driven, and readers should be prepared for a lot of world and character building. The mystery plot takes off in the second half, and its conclusion can be a bit confusing given the wide cast of characters. That said, I loved revisiting Charlotte's launch into the world, and you can't beat narration by Kate Reading.
