Not the best of the series

This book dragged a little. There wasn't enough going on and it really didn't go anywhere. I like the lead character, but this title didn't hold my interest.

The series is a great one, but this particular book is not the best of the lot. Spending time with Georgie Rannoch is always a treat, but sometimes her mother becomes annoying, if not downright hateful, as do other minor characters. I even felt that Georgie herself was borderline hateful in her attitude towards her inept maid. I realize that the '30s were a different time, but Georgie comes across as not likeable in several scenes. Also, her relationship with Darcy O'Mara is becoming tiresome with the lack of romance, as well as his and her inability to plan for the future. In short, I love this series, but perhaps it's time to think a bit more about Georgie becoming more of a modern girl, for her time.

Not as good as the other books in the series.  This one seemed to drag along.  I kinda lost interest.

Not my favorite of the series.  Love all the other 12 so far.  This was a little depressing but still very good.

This was not her best effort.  I've read all of the books in the series and enjoyed them all but found that this one really fell flat.

This series is getting old, and not quite as exciting as the others...but since I've read the other 10, I guess I will keep going.

Not the best of the series. I still enjoyed it and will read any others that are published. The series is predictable but nice reading that moves along smoothly.

I love this series but this book was a miss for me. It had a lot of drag and the action/angst just wasn't felt. It was by no means horrible, just not my favorite.

I really liked the first three books in the series; however, this forth one seemed rushed and lacked character developement.  It seemed liked Shelli was just trying to put something out fast.  This is not her best work.

Far less interesting novel than the rest of the books in the series. The story is very close to the narration of Odyssey, a compliment to the wealth of Homer's writing, but not so good for Mr. Illiffe's own effort. All in all, contrary to all the previous books, it took me a while to overcome the urge to stop reading the rest of the book early on and I kept on hoping for a change that never came. It was boring and with few surprises (only the lotus eaters sub-story had something of interest to offer). I do hope the next book will be fresh again with more to offer than a re-narration of the ancient story,

Did not compare to the previous books in the series. I felt like it was lacking. I gave it 3 stars because I love the series but I did not like this book.

Compared to the previous two books, this one was not as enjoyable.  It did nicely bring the story to a conclusion.

This book was not as good as the first two. While there were a few amusing parts, the majority of the book was quite painful, either to Stefan or El or both. I don't mind some angst, but not like this book had. The first two books were much more feel good stories. I really hope v.a. void goes back to humor and snark for the rest of the brothers. I guess if you are going to read the series you need to read this one to keep up with the other things going on, but i can't recommend Stefan and El's part of the story. Sorry.

Couldn't get into this one. I didn't enjoy it as much as the others in the series. The hero in this book also did far too much head lowering. To me it makes him a little weak and like all the others, is rather annoying.

This book wasn't as good as the rest of the series, just because it was more of a recap.
