This book was akin to a sleeping pill! It was more of an information dump than a story about Lady Almina and Highclere Castle.

Boy am I glad I gave the TV series a try before picking up this book for book club! If I'd read this first, I would never have been interested in watching the show!

The writing style was about as engaging as watching paint dry. So I had to move on after struggling through the first 50 pages. I have far too many other books in waiting. Sorry.
