First off I’d like to thank Netgalley, the author and of course the publisher, for allowing me to read this book in exchange for my honest review.
The thirteen installment into the Whitehall episode: Safe Harbor, again is not disappointing. However, with these episodes being short there isn’t a massive amount of details to give out. Think of this as you’re watching one of your hour long shows. One of the best things about reading this series, is you have time to read it while you’re waiting for one of your children to finish one of their practices, or waiting in the doctor’s office . There great when you finished a book but don’t have time or want to start another book as you don’t want to be up to late reading.
It was a nice way to end the series, I was a bit disappointed. I was hoping to have an “awe” moment at the end, or “that’s so sweet”. Instead it felt, that’s nice. This whole royal tale was full of history and intrigue. I didn’t feel like they wrapped everything up as I would have thought the authors would have, but still it was a quick read, an entertaining series, and just all around fun. I will admit I really enjoyed the episode of the books more than I thought I would have. It was nice to have something to read when I didn’t have time or wanted to take a novel with me.
As a nice fitting to the conclusion of the whole season, Queen Catherine arranges for an outing at the Theatre Royal, she gets a new dress, is excited to be making appearances, King Charles II joins her along with other members of court.
I would highly recommend you read this series in order starting at episode one. You will get a more appreciation for this series, and more importantly the price is right on point, if you just want to get them one at a time, and read between other books you’re reading. There is also a price for getting the whole series at once if you like to get it that way as well.
My overall rating for the whole series would be a 4.5.
