I will admit to liking all the ingredients, but not loving the package and I'm not quite sure why. Maybe because I haven't totally warmed to the characters? That said, I'm enjoying it well enough to carry on - it's certainly entertaining!

Like Imyril, I'm not entirely sure why I didn't like the novel on the whole despite liking all the ingredients. I'm feeling more positive in retrospect than when I'd just finished the novel, though. ^_^

1. Sam is our fish out of water - any sympathy for his predicament?
2. Horatio Gallica-Rosa is claiming property to try to weasel his way into Aquae Sulis; and the Alba-Rosas are trying to weasel their way into Will’s good graces to stop him.
