A Broken Vessel by Kate Ross
2.0
I read this after I read the third in the series, and after reading reviews, I find that the third is thought of as Ms. Ross' best book.
Here the main character was not Julian but Sally, his man-servants prostitute sister. I cannot stand her accent with SO many phrases and words that I eventually tired of looking them all up! I always read with a dictionary by my side but I've never read a book with this stunted dialogue all the way through. It was very annoying and not necessary! How long did the author spend looking up all these phrases and words that no one has heard of nowadays?
This was just too far different from the best book in the series that it was highly disappointing. I also did not see why she put Julian with Sally. Ridiculous.
