pickThis is French Revolution + vampires. It's the second book in the series and it has Mont Saint Michel on the cover so how could I not read it?

pickIt's that 'difficult second book of a series' time but the author mostly manages to avoid the main pitfalls. The book is surprisingly light on actual vampires considering the theme, & Sir Percy Blakeney is absent for three-quarters of the book. What we do have is Eleanor's growing frustration that she isn't fully accepted as a member of the League of the Scarlet Pimpernel & her yearning to play an active part in what is happening.

so-soSecond book in the Scarlet Revolution series suffers from #MiddleBookSyndrome
The plot dragged on. It was too much about Eleanor being in her own head and asking the same questions over and over. The second half of the novel picks up the pace a bit, but by that point I was tired of reading "What would Sir Percy do?" or "If only Sir Percy was here," as well as reading about Eleanor getting into trouble just to prove her point.

I think it's my lucky day. Was approved for both books 🥳🥳🥳
Perfect for the upcoming #MarvellousMarch #readathon. I'll start early, @Andrew65, hope it's okay. 😉
