Kim Minji emjey — Wow! An intense, long read, but well-written, and very intriguing. It was definitely slower paced than today's typical literature, and telling the story from looking back on events rather than in the midst of them took away from the suspense. If it were re-written today, it would make for a great thriller. However, I really loved how the book was written in narratives. Seeing if from the perspectives of several different people of differing opinions and views (and egos) was really a nice touch to a mysterious story. The twists and turns were well-planned, and although I saw the "conspiracy" coming, I don't think most people would suspect the details of it. I didn't figure out Sir Percival's secret until Walter did, and the secret itself was fascinating, especially since he pulled it off for so long. Other than Mrs. Catherick, Marian had to be my favorite character. She really had courage, fortitude, and foresight. However, I wasn't a huge fan of her half-sister, Laura who demonstrated all the weaknesses ever chalked up to women. The representation of women as the weaker sex (with the exception of Marian, and even her at times) was a huge bother and annoyance as I read, which is why I can't give this lovely book five stars. Every single woman, with the exception of the two mentioned above, was weak-minded, weak-hearted, or just plain dumb. With all the "Gave her time to recover"s peppering the book, the length of it could have been cut in half had they just gotten on with it! Mrs. Catherick's part was small, but she made a lasting impression. I particularly enjoyed her character and the Count when it came to ego and their view of the world. Overall impression: Well-worth the time it took to read even with my particular annoyances. There were some small violences but nothing overt (this was written in the late 1800's afterall), no profanity, and no sex. Good read!

Karl Hoffman monicapanaaed8 — This booked lived up to the hype. For being a young adult book, I loved the politics involved.
