The Widow might be a DNF and a yeet to the book exchange pile.

It's not one that I ever really reread with any sort of enthusiasm and I think I only kept it because I couldn't stand letting a favorite author's book go to the bin.

But I'm older now with less space and even fewer f's to give.

I think Charlie and Maguire are probably some of Stuart's weaker main characters. Charlie reminds me too much of Cassidy from Night Fall and Maguire is a pretty stereotypical Stuart MMC.

But the side characters always make me laugh. These people would be exhausting in real life.

I finally get it. Pompasse = pompous

Now I remember this bonkers plotline.

Anne Stuart was in some ways ahead of her time and at other times, I'm sure she was influenced by Flowers in the Attic.
