When Bea‘s uncle appears to have mulled himself, it‘s up to Vivian to uncover what really happened & find the connections to a new blackmailing gang in town.

I loved this one just as much as the first! A fun, diverse, & complex cast with more Florence & Danny! A beautifully set 1920s speakeasy! A twisty turny mystery that I did not predict the final twist on! A bit slow in the beginning, but a absolute blast to finish. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

CatLass007 This looks like a fun new series. It‘s not available through Libby but I added the first book in the series to my Audible wish list. 3mo
BookmarkTavern @CatLass007 I‘ve been enjoying it! And the audiobook narrator is fantastic! 3mo
CatLass007 That‘s so important. A poor narrator has led me to bail more than once. 3mo

The mystery was intriguing once things got going, and I also really liked seeing Florence come out of her shell. Between the era, the speakeasy, the characters and the story I found this to be a fun series to return to. I also enjoyed the audiobook. Young gives each character their own personality and voice, making each one unique. I wish the pace had been a little faster, but between the inflection and tone it was still an enjoyable audiobook.

BookmarkTavern This is my next listen! Your review is making me look forward even more to it! 3mo
Read_By_Red @BookmarkTavern I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, and thank you! 3mo

This author wrote The Glass Castle, a book that stayed with me a long time. I thought this one would be good, it was. Set in the South when families ruled small communities, the story tells of Sallie Kincaid's life as the daughter of the town 'boss'. An engrossing story of how everyone lives were mixed up together in unexpected ways. This is a story of sometimes taking the law into your hands, when laws are unjust.
Recommend!

This was a really interesting historical fiction story. I really liked how the story progressed from Sallie‘s childhood onward and the relationships she had throughout the book as her life changed. Very well written and an interesting read.

Beatriz Williams was my choice this month for the #BacklistReadathon

I wanted more of the 1998 story and less of the prohibition story on this one, but it was still enjoyable. I‘ll probably read the sequel at some point.

TheBookgeekFrau If you read the next two books, you'll find the prohibition story figures heavily into the 'modern' story. I loved all three Wicked books!! 💞 7mo
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 7mo
Bookwormjillk @TheBookgeekFrau good to know thank you! 7mo
