The Lady Julia Grey Bundle by Deanna Raybourn
3.0
Okay, so this is the first time I am reading a DR book, rather books.
Now, since it is a bundle I had three books to read as one. The opening line was awesome. I had great expectations but then Book 1 almost disappointed me.
Still, I continued and Book 2 was maybe okay. Book 3 was a little better but, I skimmed through a few pages in all the books.
If 25-30% of Julia's ramblings were removed, the story would have progressed better. The chemistry wasn't that great until almost the ending.
The crimes were neither easy nor hard to guess so that's okay.
I'm not sure if people of that era used a few words written in the book.
I was torn between liking and hating Julia, but finally, she's good enough. Not great, but good.
Brisbane, of course, was the typical brooding hero, and it was the same with him. Like at times, dislike at times.
I'll continue reading the series to see how they manage their temperments.
