Silent in the Sanctuary
by Deanna Raybourn
Hey- I just saw this at the grocery store and came to add it to my list! Guess I need to start with Silent in the Grave first?
Yeah. It helps to read them in the right order :) I liked the first one a lot more than the second one. I'll be interested to see what you think.

3.5 Stars. I didn't like this book near as much as Silent in the Grave. The narrator, Lady Julia Grey, really bothered me this time around. I felt she came off as rather snobby and self righteous and I grew tired of hearing her declare her independence as a woman. Also, I really enjoyed the March family in the first book whereas this time around I don't think there was as much humour and wit in the dialogue with the quirky family. I especailly felt this way when it came to Julia's father. I loved him in the first book but not so much this time. I think part of the problem is that I have read some amazing books as of late and so this one just didn't hit the mark for me. I am looking forward to the next book in the series hoping to resolve the tension between Brisbane and Julia and hopefully I will enjoy it as much as I did Silent in the Grave.
