      She asks the cook about a jar of dried leaves in the kitchen cupboard, and the cook says, oh, that's poison, so I keep it in the back of the cupboard so people don't use it for cooking. It's never explained why she has it in the kitchen at all!

      This book still sucks, but I had some time to read yesterday.

      I groaned when upon finishing reading the textbook, the protagonist picked up *another* book and read it in its entirety, padding things out even more, but I changed my mind partway in, because that book turned out to be a short story that was much more of an actual *story* than the rest of this book. It had characters with motivations, a plot, a conflict, and a resolution. More like this, please.

      There have been several glimpses of the ghost sister and her werewolf lover/protector, and I really wish the story was about them instead of about the political ambitions of this evil poisoner.
